PlayStation Eye

Works well and I’m glad I got it because my grandchildren played with it so many times. Still in good condition.

I got this PS3 Eye specifically to take it apart and modify it to become an IR only camera to use it with FreeTrack & FaceTrackNoIR (free software that helps you emulate TrackIR). For this purpose, once the camera is modified, it works ...flawlessly. You will NOT regret the purchase, 5 stars just for that. However, what I was shocked to find, though was how well this also worked as a normal PC Webcam. Pros: 1. Picture was smooth, probably because the framerate can go up to 120 FPS. 2. Software drivers for various verisons of Windows, including Windows 7. 3. The camera can lower resolution and do a wider angle, which is very nice. 4. Microphone was very nice. 5. Once set up, worked with Skype, OSB for Twitch streaming, about everything I tried. Cons: 1. Camera only supports up to 640x480 (however, not much of one as that's a sensible resolution that won't eat your bandwith) 2. PC Drivers are not by Sony, or officially supported, you have to find them. There was an annoying bug that evverytime I reboot my pc, I have to unplug and replug the camera to get the microphone to work in Windows 7. 3. PC Drivers are 32-bit only, and that meant, for example, I coudl only run the 32 bit version of OSB to stream for Twitch. The Camera isn't an amazing piece of hardware, it's just a decent piece of hardware at an amazing price, that can work for a PS3, a PC, be reasonably modified into an IR camera, etc. For that, it really deserves 5 stars.

The PS3 Eye is an excellent PC webcam. It may sound strange to say this but I didn't buy the Eye for my PS3, but to use it as a PC webcam. All you have to do is look for the drivers on the internet, an easy search will take you to the right place, and install them. You PC will recognize the Eye and you've got a $30ish camera that would cost you much more if you were to buy another brand of the same quality. I've been using it in Skype mostly and it works like a charm. But the PS3 Eye works on the PS3 too. I'm not really using it there now, but I will once the Playstation Move comes out. I already got this part of it, so I just have to get the controller. Great product.

Ok -- so I picked this up for both the video conferencing and the games. Video is ok -- it's not the best, certainly not as clear as they make it look in the promotional materials, but good enough for us to chat with family. The stream is a bit choppy at times but hey -- this is not a several hundred dollar video conferencing system either. For what you're paying, you get a nice set up. Compared to PC, it seems to be about the same from what I've seen. The games are pretty neat but there's only a few of them! I bought every piece of software Sony offers on the Playstation network and it only cost me 20 bucks, so there's no big $$$ expenditure here. The kids really get a kick out of Operation Creature Feature and I gotta admit, I have fun with it too. It gets pretty tough on later levels so there's a bit of skill mastery goin' on there! :-) Lastly, a heads up for anyone who buys one of these -- the camera detects motion. ALL motion. I had my ceiling fan on when I first hooked it up and it would not work worth a @#$^&! Turned the ceiling fan off and presto -- worked great. Whereas you'll typically be using your hands to fight, you can also use your arms, head, torso... you get the picture. 40 bucks is a trip to the movies with the wife/girlfriend, popcorn, and drinks. That's a drop in the well for something like this unit. I've definitely derived far, far more entertainment from the PS3 Eye than I'd ever get from a movie and besides -- with the rising costs of going to the cinema, I'd rather just buy the DVD and watch it home for free...my shoes don't get all sticky from the candy and spilled soda pop that way either. :-)

got this to play michael jackson the experience and it gets the job done!

This camera has surpassed my expectations in terms of quality and setup difficulty. Though the shipping was slightly delayed, the camera surprised me by coming in a day early and really making my night. After about 10 minutes of downloading firmware for the small sum of $2.99, it put this camera in the $12-13 range, much cheaper than any competing web-cam could offer. I was able to get this set-up with OBS (streaming software) in another 5 minutes and can really only say the one thing I am missing now is a good lighting setup. I dn't plan to use the built-in Mic, but the fact that it offers this is beyond what you would expect, you can essentially setup a video VOIP for $12 in 10 minutes. I plan to use this for Youtube and Streaming on Twitch and the quality is definitely up to par. Very pleased with this purchase.

I bought this PS3 camera, thinking it was new, but it is used!! It's not in the original packaging,no software disc, no nothing!! Tried to get a new one, but the only thing they would offer is a new one, or replacement order, but I would have to pay to ship it back, loosing more money!! The ad for this is misleading, complete in box and new!!. Yeah right!! What a rip off!! It's made me afraid in a way to order anything from Amazon!!The camera is really cool to have for the PS3. Since I had already ordered games from Amazon for the PS3 camera and had the controllers for it, I had to look elsewhere to find another one. I did and it's in the box an everything's included. Thanks to Ebay!! 5 Stars for my Ebay purchase!!
