iCamShare is your web cam companion! Use it to easily make videos or take snapshots that you can share in many ways. You can send them in e-mails, publish them on your .Mac HomePage, drag and drop them into other applications, and more! iCamShare can also digitally zoom iSight and other FireWire webcams up to 300%.

You can send video e-mails easily, and your recipient can watch them on their computer, in some cases right inside their own e-mail program! Unlike video conferencing, you can send video e-mails whenever you want, and the recipient can watch them whenever they want.

While iChat AV requires that both users have high-speed (broadband) internet connections, iCamShare works with any internet connection, including dial-up modems. If your OS X-based Mac can send e-mails, you can send video mails. And the videos you make will work on most Macintosh and Windows computers, even if you send it to someone who does not have QuickTime. But if you use QuickTime's superior compression, you can compress your videos by up to 500x!

With version 2.0, you can also share your videos and pictures in many new ways. If you have a .Mac account, you can easily capture and publish on your .Mac HomePage. iCamShare is one of the first applications to take advantage of Apple's new DotMacKit Framework.

You can also drag-and-drop pictures into many applications, like Microsoft Office applications, Adobe products such as PhotoShop, Lifli Software's iBlog, and many others. Or you can save your video or picture on your computer, to use any way you want. In addition, you can export them into any format supported by QuickTime.
