The video is fuzzy from our webcam

Open skype go to tools options scroll to audio settings or video settings you can see the webcam there you can even take a snapsot also make sure your settings are correct for a video call
hope this helps

It sounds like the auto focus isn't properly focusing on you. Try manually turning the ring on the front of the webcam lens to manually focus it. Also try the other tips in the article Improve Your Webcam Video Quality.

A bit of fuzziness is expected especially when you move. How fuzzy depends on speed of your computer and the capture ability of the camera. I have quickcam that is 1.3 megapixel. Stationary objects are pretty clear, but all motion is fuzzy and distorted. Move slowly to help minimize the distortion. When using instant messaging or Skype, set camera to a smaller image size for faster compression and transfer.

logitech cams only work in UVC mode not drivers

unless you have 10.3.x software on the mac. then you can run 8.0.1 on the mac. otherwise you need to upgrade the cam.

here is a list of mac complaint cameras.

did you try adjusting the focus by turning the rubber ring around the camera eye?

Are you referring to the image you're seeing, or the image the person on the other end is seeing?

Generally, the picture *you* see is clearer than the one on the other end. That's normal, because of image quality degradation over the internet.

The faster your internet connection, the better the image will be, but it'll never be as clear as what you see on your own computer.

Hi Thomas,
Have you tried adjusting your resolution? To maximize the quality of video/picture that your webcam can capture, Turn the resolution into 1.3megapixel. Adjusting the resolution is by clicking the arrow above the Video Option. 

I can tell you how to fix it :D the white part where the lens is turn it ontil clear my dad did it for me its soooo clear! This is when its dark...

1.check cam is jammed
2.check whether the drivers are installed properly
3.check the USB adapter cable
4.Remove cam .plug and install proper driver.
5.Check Video settings to default values
6. Else camera-video signal processing circuit might be damaged
thank you !

when using a video recording programme, the backlighting is normally automatically done for you but in live messenger you have to set the camera up yourself, as the fuzziness you are experiencing will probably be the lack of lighting in the immediate vacinity, so within the camera software before you go online, go into the settings and change the backlighting, most cameras have this option, also check the options in messenger, or make sure you are well lit around youself especially at night.
