Spend your money elsewhere
Overall, this product does what the basic web camera does. It shows your video. For the price, it's not worth it. The low light vision is bad, and even in high light, the picture tends to be grainy. It has a manual focus that is hard to get right. It's a convenient size, but the hold is weak on the laptop. I bought it from Target as well, since it was on clearance for 25 dollars. I wish I hadn't. I bought it for my HP notebook, and was much more satisfied by the Logitech webcams.

Good value
I bought my minicam at Target for .99 and I think it works just great. I like the fact that I don't need a separate microphone, it picks up the audio wherever the camera is... the long usb cord makes it so that you can pick up video from ~10 feet away which is useful to show off people, items in the background or babies sleeping in their cribs! I agree that the contrast is a bit dark, but I'll deal with it. The other cameras I've tried are very touchy and I've had this one kicking around in my backpack for months without a case. I plug it in - and it works. Can't ask for much more for only .
