Webcams are video capture devices that are used in conjunction with a computer (internally or externally).<ref>http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/using-webcam</ref> The cheapest video capture option of the two presented here, webcams can be purchased for under US$20. Many webcams offer high-definition recording (720p+) and have built-in microphones to record audio. These days many laptops will come with integrated webcams, allowing the owner to start vodcasting or doing video calls nearly immediately. While being very affordable, they do have the disadvantages of not being as versatile in their potential recording environments or not being quite as high quality as camcorders. | Webcams are video capture devices that are used in conjunction with a computer (internally or externally).<ref>http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/using-webcam</ref> The cheapest video capture option of the two presented here, webcams can be purchased for under US$20.
