HUE HD Pro Flexible USB 11x17 Document Camera and Classroom Visualizer for Teachers: Built-in Microphone/Lights, Windows, macOS, Chromebook Compatibility (Blue Camera with White Carry Case)

My son had previously used this at a local kids play place to make stop animations. Many of the complaints have been addressed in the app updates and I was so happy for him to have one at home. This is one of his favorite toys and he loves making stories using stop animations. It was easy to set up on the iPad and with the recent updates it connects easily. The quality is fine for a kid and it’s a great tool to teach the fundamentals of stop animation and storytelling.

Now that I finally got the cam to work, it turned out to be a very nice , sharp cam. The flexable neck makes it possible to use it to read a printed page or it can be used as a web cam, it also says it can read bar codes. Some people have apparently tried to bend the cam were it connects to the neck, not a good idea, it's better to bend the neck away from the cam is a curve. I didn't know that the CAMERA app was used with this VIDEO cam. Now I know & so do you.

Teacher here. Love this EXCEPT when I have to move the goose neck to "zoom in" or "zoom out". It will stop working and give me a "HUE is not connected" error - then it takes me 5 minutes to get it to show my paper again. If you bump it it goes out. Any movement can 'disconnect' it and you have to unplug, replug, refresh, adjust and hope it comes back. I'm disappointed - it worked so well, now in year 2 it is finicky.

This is a great tool for my daughter classes online!

Light, portable, great picture! I did purchase one of these about two years ago and needed to repurchase due to me (or possibly a student) jamming the wires in the plug, but they’re so economical and great it honestly didn’t bother me. I like these far better than ELMO or LadyBug document cameras. The picture quality is far better and they are light so you can remove them from your desk to create more space.

It is not the absolute highest quality camera but for the money it works great. I'm very happy with it.

Don’t see why it has such great reviews by educators. The other person online sees words backwards. And customer service was of no help. Useless practically.

I purchased a RED HUE HD Pro. 1. The box it came in displayed a BLUE HUE. (Should have seen the signs...), 2. Today, I took it to work, plugged it into my Lenovo Yoga and I could barely see the red light at the base and had to ask students to turn the lights off so I can see it it is on. 3. IT IS NOT "PLUG AND PLAY". I expected to be able to project what was on my laptop screen or at the vary least, be able to manipulate the neck face down so students can see the graphic organizer on the table or use it like an Elmo. I understand needing to use a projector to enlarge images, but according to the customer rep that I chatted with online, EVERY function requires being connected to a projector. WHY? The video ads are deceptive. This is not "portable" REALLY...not if you have to drag a projector along with it to get it to do anything. It comes with a fairly long cord but unless you have a wireless projector, I don't see HOW this is less cumbersome or limiting in terms of mobility. I am not even sure it would work if I had a wireless projector??? The chat paused and I gave up asking questions. EVERY response was it has to connected to a projector. The little bit I could see was poor quality. I could see myself and a stretchy screen that looked dated. Not at all like the videos... which made it look like it was "plug and play". It wasn't until customer service told me to look at page two and I discover that on page three (not two) of the user guide did I see it requires a projector. For EVERYTHING, according to Grace (The rep). REALLY? Even for live streaming??? WHY?

het heeft een degelijke look maar was in mijn geval geen plug and play, ik heb telkens eerst de driver moeten installeren (dat was even zoeken) voor de camera gedetecteerd werd en dit was zo bij drie verschillende laptops (waaronder één apple). Dat is wel jammer.

My daughter is doing a Zoom class and was required to have this camera specially. It has been fantastic. It is easy to use, works well and seems to be very well made. We did have an issue and I contacted Hue directly. They were amazing to deal with and sorted out our issue quickly and to my complete satisfaction. I would highly recommend the camera and the company based on our experience.

Great quality product. A very practical resource when teaching my lessons. Easy to use.

Don’t buy this camera. It is awful. The software is unusable, the settings are hopeless and you just get a grainy video. Don’t be stupid and buy this. Get an InSwan instead. They are a little more expensive, but totally worth it.

Ürün kullanışlı değil. Malzeme kalitesi iyi fakat kullanışlı değil. Kendi yazılımı olmadan yakınlaştırma döndürme vs. yapamıyorsunuz. Yazılımıda çok geride geliştirilmeli.
