Q: what is the difference of an HD webcam that is 1080p and the C505 at 720p. what is the main difference between the C505 HD & the C270 HD

A: You're difference between a 1080p webcam and a 720p webcam will mainly be the picture quality. A 1080p webcam is going to look better than a 720p webcam. Plus the 1080p webcams, generally, have a better microphone on them. The main difference between the C505 and the C270 is really only going to be the length of the USB cable. The C505 has a 7 foot cable and the C270 has a 5 foot cable. Otherwise, the have the same picture quality, microphone, and field of view.

Q: Hello, I understand I will not be able to zoom in and out with this webcam. Is there any software that may work along with it to make it able to zoom in and out? I would like the option to make my head larger in the view. Other ideas for this? Thank you.

A: Hello JLGK! The C505 HD Webcam does not have a zoom option, unfortunately. It has a fixed lens with a Field of View of 60°, so a bit less wide than our regular Full HD 1080p cameras, If you'd like a webcam that you'll be able to zoom in and out with, I'd recommend checking the c920s HD Webcam https://www.bestbuy.com/site/logitech-c920s-hd-webcam/6321794.p?skuId=6321794 or higher tier models, that will work with the free Logitech Capture software https://www.logitech.com/en-ca/product/capture, and offer the zoom option.

Q: There are no directions - I don't know how to use this, just wait for a zoom meeting and it will work?

A: Hi Shelly, it is actually that simple! Just plug the webcam into your computer, clip it to your monitor or position it as desired. The webcam only comes on when there is software, like Zoom trying to use it. In your Zoom video settings you can check to ensure it is using the Logitech C505 webcam as the video source.

Q: Can I use this for my MacAir?

A: Hello Dee. The C505 will work well with your MacBook Air. Keep in mind, if you only have USB-C ports, you will need an adapter since the C505 has a USB-A plug.

Q: Does this work on my HP laptop - my current built in webcam just doesn't work anymore.

A: Hello Perry! Yes, the C505 HD Webcam will work on your HP laptop no problem, you simply have to connect it to one of the USB ports, launch your video conferencing app, and select it as your camera to use within the app!

Q: Is this webcam compatible with Windows 10?

A: I have successfully used this webcam with my computer that has Windows10.

Q: Does it have a mic

A: Has a built in mik

Q: Does it work well with classroom recording? Need for quality recording of whatever is on the board and presenter's voice. What's the max range for quality picture and audio?

A: Hello StrouthoDroid, The C505 features an omnidirectional mic with noise-reduction technology that is engineered to support clear, natural conversations up to 3 meters away (9.84 feet). It also comes with an extra long 7' cable that will give you more setup options other than the traditional position atop your laptop or external screen---i.e. a shelf or fixture. Hope this helped and that all is going well. - Richard from Logitech
