The C500 is supposed to be UVC compatible 
(http://www.quickcamteam.net/devices/logitech_uvc_device_list.pdf and thanks 
to Logitech for providing this list), so it *should* be supported by the 
uvcvideo driver out of the box. I haven't tested it though.

It depends on your criteria.

I've asked Microsoft for device samples and they didn't even bother to answer. 
I can thus only judge the quality of MS cameras by the number of user requests 
I receive. I can't tell you about the VX-6000, but someone tried the VX-7000 
without success.

I would advice going for Logitech cameras. If you need good light sensitivity, 
go for a high-end device.
