To get better quality image using Logitech Webcam Software (LWS):

• Connect your camera directly to a USB port or your computer (NOT a hub or docking station).
• Make sure your USB 2.0 port is working at a high speed. (See answer 360023239034 for help.)
• Check that your system meets the recommended Dual Core CPU requirements.
• Avoid multi-tasking while capturing video, as this requires a lot of CPU usage.
• Get the latest driver for your camera.
• Improve the lighting conditions in the room.

• Make sure you've met all of the requirements listed above.

• Check your internet connection speed (www.speakeasy.net/speedtest). You need at least 384kps of upload speed and one megabit for downloading.

  NOTE: Sometimes, your current internet speed isn't what you're told by your internet provider or you may be using the internet during a period of heavy traffic.

• Try a different IM application, which may provide better results.
• Consider that the image quality problem could be with the sender's computer rather than your own.

NOTE: If you don't own a high-speed or USB 2.0 camera, your image quality may never be as good as a camera with USB 2.0 capabilities.
