May 27, 2009Best Value I Could Find
Pros:Fit my Phillips SPC900NC,Accurate
Cons:None
Comments:I bought my Phillips webcam on close-out and the adapter from Agena. Free software for processing is all over the Internet. For about $100 bucks I am in business. Looking for a flip-mirror now to avoid removing and replacing adapter to center objects. I have purchased several pieces from Agena and have never been disappointed.
