The problem is that OpenCV (and QuickTime or Vlc) works well only with the onboard webcam. I have bought many usb video capture devices for Mac. These device work only with theirs software.
i think opencv grabs video from most usb cameras: link text

Like mentioned by @antonio, almost all USB webcams are supported by the drivers of OpenCV to capture data, expecially the basic ones. So you have a range of camera possibilities. Looking for something in particular or not? Else I could suggest using the basic model of logitech which works perfectly over here and is a very cheap webcam for good quality for basic stuff. If you need high resolution images or high rate capturing, then tell me.
