Elecom UCAM-E1W30TNWH and Buffalo BHC-35H03B Beautifying Webcams

February 9th, 2006

It’s not impossible now to look pretty on webcam when chatting online with friends. Elecom UCAM-E1W30TNWH and Buffalo BHC-35H03B (see below picture) make it possible.

Buffalo’s Web cam, BHC-35H03B “Bihakuppuri” (beauty and lighter skin) takes a different approach. When its Beauty Mode is on, a bright spotlight turns on and automatic white balance adjustment kicks in. As every digital camera fan knows very well, a wrong white balance can turn a portrait of Snow White into Ms Frankenstein, or vice versa.

Elecom UCAM-E1W30TNWH. Package says: “You come out beautiful through this Web cam. Prettier with lighter skin tone!” Ah well, nothing magical actually. First, its lens is F2.1. The image comes out nicely in a rather less lighted room. Second, your image goes through real-time image retouch procedure. That’s all.
Price tag: 7,875 yen (US$68)
