This camera is wonderful for what it costs. If you're looking to get a webcam, if you need a camera for streaming/content creation, get this one, it'll get you what you need without costing you an arm and a leg. A lot of cameras can have diminishing returns the more you spend, and this feels like it's right at the point of spending the amount of money for the quality you're getting, rather than overspending for less and less benefit over time.The mount for the camera is great, and it holds it onto the monitor well without easily slipping, although make sure you're careful when you grab the camera lens cover, because if you're too rough with it, it'll definitely fall off. You won't need any tools or skills to install this thing, it's as easy as the marketing materials claim.The lens cover doesn't scratch the lens at all, even though it's made of metal, so that's a plus. It also magnetizes well to the bottom of the mount when it's not in use.The microphone quality is okay, but if you want actually good quality sound, get a dedicated mic.This looks better than any other webcam I've tried in my life, and it does a decent job at representing the actual color of things in the picture, whether that be objects in the background or human skin. It works well in both high and low light situations.The hand gestures for zooming in and out, and following a subject w/zoom both work without any software needed, which is AMAZING for someone who doesn't like installing tons of software just to use features on their own hardware. (although additional features past that are going to require their dedicated software) However, make sure your lighting allows it to work properly. I've found that top-down lighting that leaves a shadow across your hand can cause the gestures to not work, so make sure you have some front-facing light to illuminate your entire palm if you want to use the gesture controls.It works on every computer/laptop I've tried it on, running both Windows and Linux, so that's nice as well. The included USB C-C cable is more than long enough, and works perfectly as expected, no notes on that.It's definitely a great camera for the price, and I think 99% of people won't need anything better than this in terms of camera quality. I don't think I'm going to be the best person to show you the actual visual quality considering the lighting and space I have available to me though, so I'd suggest looking up some videos on YouTube with shots from this camera in different lighting setups, since that should give you a much better idea of its quality.

I bought this camera because I was unhappy with my current camera (around $120). It was unpredictably giving the picture a sickly green tint, and there was nothing I could do about it. This camera, on the other hand, is incredible. It picks up detail and manages a broad range of lighting conditions. That's important to me because my desk faces a window, and the sunlight changes from indirect in the morning to direct in the afternoon.One of the most amazing things is that the lens gives me a genuine bokeh effect, slightly blurring the background. It's not a digital effect; it's optical, and it looks fantastic.I'm probably going to get one for my wife. She hates having to put on makeup for Zoom meetings. Zoom has a digital makeup feature, but it's not stable. When she moves her head, the makeup lags. This camera has software that also does makeup, and it's rock solid. It looks natural and tracks the face perfectly. The only downside is that the software is a little hard to use. If you don't need makeup, it looks great right out of the box. You don't have to install the optional software.Overall, this is an incredible value. It's small, cute, and the performance delivers.

This camera is pretty good! I feel like it has a great set of features and overall the picture quality is great. I would prefer higher resolution over any framerate over 60 because it's practically useless but hey, it's something. The biggest killer for me is the included stand. I don't know who thought it was a genius idea to have the stand be magnetic but it causes SO many issues which isn't helped by the relatively short included cable. Because it's magnetically attached, it's very prone to being tilted out of the way and moved around, making your camera off center or tilted. Additionally, it's way worse for mounting to look downward from a monitor to the desk in case you want to do a handcam. It does have mounting for a different stand, but I just can't be happy with the included one which knocks it down a star.Update: Found an issue: it doesn't handle close-ups very well. When I try to show the camera something close to it, it has a really hard time focusing in my experience so if you do something like TCG openings, this may not be the greatest solution.

i did loads of research before getting this webcam, watched so many videos and read a lot of reviews, compared everything on the market within the same price range. i tutor online so i don't need anything fancy but this exceeded my expectations and can easily be used for other projects and look pretty damn good. It's really high-res, the colors pop and the auto-focus works well. You have the option of turning off and on the automatic zoom and panning, it's a nice feature but i don't really use it for what I need it for. I was also looking for something compact and minimal style wise so it doesn't take over the top of my monitor and looks good. I also like that the mount is magnetic so I can easily pop it on and off and adjust the angles and that it comes with a equally convenient magnetic privacy cover. It's a great value compared to other products I looked at.
