    Unless you have a really high quality webcam with great audio don't make videos with your web cam. Check out these sites and see which one is good for you. ScreenToaster.com - CamStudio.org ScreenCast.com

    Camtasia is what I use. Also if you are only using a webcam and don't need any screen shots or other items like power point presentations then you can just use the software that comes with the web cam. Personally I like the Logitec Quickcam Pro 9000. It works good and the cost is around a hundred bucks

    You can also use Vlog it (you need to search for it on the Adobe store but it can be bought for about 37 quid and downloaded immediately) if you want to make 'face to webcam' video blog things. Its not great in that you cant edit it too much but it comes with teleprompter and enough basic things to get you going. You can edit it in windows movie maker too i think - ive got it but havent done much with it yet.

    Yes, Sony Vegas or even Movie Maker can do it easily.

    Depends on what you want to do with the webcam. I suggest using the software quoted above. Many of the people on our system use those packages.

    I would recommend camtasia which is high quality and actively used by many gurus.
