The iSight in MBA is surely different than the one in MB. The image quality of the MBA iSight in low light situation is definitely poor in comparison. I don't know if it has the same resolution or not.

I think its the same camera only smaller, I played with the one on the MB, and I have a MBA and no different to me.
 
Most certainly different.

Surprisingly, Apple has omitted the resolution for the built-in iSight camera used in the MacBook Air. As noted from Wikipedia, the camera is only of VGA resolution (640x480), while the MacBook/MacBook Pro use a megapixel resolution (1.2MP) camera.
 
I can certainly say that the camera doesn't have near the resolution as the MB or MBP.

It's usable but quite noisy in anything but optimal lighting.
