Setup is as easy as it gets. I connected it to my PC through a USB hub and it was recognized by Windows 10 immediately. The lighting in my area is odd (one small window high on the wall) so having the variable light source is nice. Repeatedly tap the little light icon to get three different light levels, none of which glare the camera. The small LED that indicates the camera is active is WAY too weak an unnoticeable. If it were colored red or blue it might be easier, but as it stands it can be very difficult to know if the camera is active. (See attached image. Admittedly, this was during the day -- a dark room the light is more visible, but still, too subtle in my opinion.) I also wish there was a physical shutter to cover the camera when not in use for security purposes. Functionally, the camera is awesome! But 4 stars for missing a couple of easy wins.

This webcam fits onto my monitor easily, no stand required and no marks being left. The ring light is perfect for my dimly-lit room, and my friends say I look much clearer than my built-in webcam from my previous computer. The noise cancellation is also great and effective - I always have a fan going near me and this has done a marvelous job of dulling that background noise. I mostly love it for the pivoting base - I'm short, so the biggest selling point was how I could adjust the angle to actually see me. This little webcam is a lot of bang for it's buck!

Excellent webcam with the added bonus of an external light to make it easier to be seen and improve your appearance on camera. The light has three settings to customize the brightness to match your needs. Easy to use with Mac OS and compatible with all video conferencing that I have attempted, including Zoom!
