picture quality of CCD is much more superior - especially in lower light levels.

CCD is more expensive to make and that's why most web cams and cheap digital cameras aren't CCD.

CCD is usually what you find in quality digital cameras. a much more crisper picture in my experience.

I purchased a low end creative digital camera a couple of years back and it had a CMOS sensor - it was hopeless - I took it back as pictures turned out black unless taken in day light!
