THE SHORT ANSWER

Our take

The Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision 961471-0403 is a well-described legacy 720p webcam for a buyer who specifically wants this non-SE part and can verify present host support. The historical Amazon ASIN is not mapped.

Consider it for

A buyer who wants the specific non-SE 961471-0403 and accepts 720p30 and legacy-host uncertainty..

Look elsewhere if

Not for a buyer who needs Full HD, autofocus, a documented wide field, a physical privacy shutter, or guaranteed current driver and application support.

Pros & cons

What could work for you, and what to consider before buying.

What works in its favor

  • The part-specific record lists 960×720 video at 30fps and a 1.3MP sensor.
  • Fixed focus, a five-element glass lens, RightLight 2, and an integrated microphone are described.
  • An NXP USB guide lists exact part 961471-0403 as a UVC PC camera.

What to weigh up

  • The listed video ceiling is 720p; 1280×960 refers to still capture.
  • Field of view, mount, privacy control, and current software support are unknown.
  • Keep this non-SE part separate from QuickCam Ultra Vision SE 960-000016.

What the features mean for you

A fixed-focus 720p camera from the pre-HD era

The Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision, part 961471-0403, is a legacy USB webcam whose part-specific product listing describes 960×720 video at 30 frames per second and a 1.3-megapixel sensor. Its advertised 1280×960 maximum is for still-image capture; it is not the listed video mode. The distinction matters when comparing the Ultra Vision with newer 1080p webcams. The model is a step above VGA-era cameras in its listed video size, but it remains a 720p-class option with old software references.

Lens and automatic exposure

The five-element glass lens and RightLight 2 are among the model’s documented features. Logitech’s catalog copy describes the lens as precision engineered, while the Newegg listing says RightLight 2 is intended to improve images in dim or side- and back-lit scenes. Those descriptions explain what the product was designed to offer; they are not measured image-quality results. No inspected source supplies a field-of-view angle, so its framing cannot be described as wide or compared quantitatively with models that publish an angle.

Focus, USB, and placement

Focus is fixed. That can keep the camera simpler than an autofocus model, but the best framing depends on where it sits relative to the person using it. The available sources do not document a precise working distance, focus range, or adjustable stand. The NXP USB guide identifies part 961471-0403 as a UVC PC camera, and Newegg lists USB 2.0. UVC is a useful standards clue, but it does not prove that every current computer, application, or USB adapter will recognize a twenty-year-old device.

Microphone and software limits

The camera includes an integrated microphone. The catalog associates it with Logitech RightSound processing and describes echo-free voice, but there is no verified pickup pattern, range, or independent measurement. A preview button and a snapshot button are also listed. QuickCam Ultra Vision materials mention Logitech Video Effects, but that historical software should not be treated as current operating-system or application support. The compatibility notes name Windows 2000, XP, and Vista, which are historical requirements rather than a current support promise.

Keep the non-SE part distinct

The name is close to another product: QuickCam Ultra Vision SE, part 960-000016, recorded separately in this category. This row names part 961471-0403 without the SE suffix. Keep the models separate and do not transfer a claim from the SE listing because the family names resemble one another. The exact historical Amazon ASIN B000GP4G1I was not inspectable, so the part number in the frozen title is the strongest row-specific identity clue. A tagged model search is the safer destination until an exact listing can be verified.

Who should consider it

Consider the QuickCam Ultra Vision when you specifically want the older 961471-0403 model and 720p/30 video is sufficient. Its built-in mic and buttons may suit a basic USB calling setup, but current device recognition should be checked before relying on it. Buyers who need 1080p, autofocus, a documented wide angle, or confirmed current drivers should compare a more recent model. This review uses product-catalog evidence and does not claim personal testing.

What else to compare

The Logitech C920s renewed listing offers documented 1080p30 and autofocus with a physical shutter; its renewed condition is a separate offer consideration.
