  • Digital Cowboy intros webcam with telephoto lens

    By Donald Melanson | January 30, 2007

    Filed under:

    While it’s decidedly lacking compared to some telephoto lenses we’ve seen, Digital Cowboy’s new 7x number here should still be more than enough to make most other short-sighted webcams feel woefully inadequate about themselves. Detach that lens, however, and you’re left with a fairly run-of-the-mill webcam, with a 1.3 megapixel resolution, face-tracking functionality, and video recording at up to 30 fps — if you don’t mind dropping things down to 640 x 480, that is (you’ll just get 15 fps at the cam’s full resolution). Those looking to put the webcam to some remotely-controlled use will also be out of luck, with the lens strictly a manually operated deal. Look for this one to hit Japan next month for 9.800 Yen, or just over $80.
