HD 720p

HD720p signifies a High-Definition (HD) image format, otherwise known as "HD Ready" in TV parlance. "720" represents an image resolution of 1280 × 720 pixels, while the abbreviation "p" is used to designate progressive scanning of the image (i.e. no interlacing).
"HD720p" provides high-quality images with high refresh rates (in this case, up to 30 frames per second), resulting in a truly amazing level of realism never seen in a webcam… up until now!

Autofocus

Automatic adjustment of a webcam’s focus allowing a face or object to always remain clear according to its distance from the webcam.

Digital zoom

Zoom carried out via software thanks to a mathematical algorithm allowing for the "enlargement" of pixels.
