I would like to know if it works but chances are it will because the Pro 5000 model works well too, so I'm guessing I'm able to get it work with FreeTrack easily. You may want to consider twice before buying this cam. Taking out the IR filter with such expensive webcam? Lol, might as well look for a decent but cheaper ones to remove the filter. Personally I'd go for 65mA with IR LED hoping that it'll able to penetrate the filter and provide me with a reliable feedback. Hope so. Keeps finger crossed.

If you remove the filter, you won't be able to use it as a normal webcam for usual video purpose, so it's not much of an interest... If you want to get the best tracking ever and you're ready to spend some money on it, you should buy a wiimote . By the way, I guess this webcam will work since most of the Logitech's have been reported working with FreeTrack. Rémy

As said, the camera is pretty expensive and I don't want to ruin it without any use. Does it track IR LEDs without removing the filter? Is the CPU load very high (I have a single-core CPU)? How does it perform in general? Kudos for answers in advance.
