Logitech - C920 Pro Webcam - Black

Logitech is a well-known brand for most of us. With all the other brands out there, we tend to forget they are still around and make good products for the budget. I actually bought this product years ago to try streaming, which never really took off. Then it sat for 2 years. Though currently use for work every day (Microsoft Team) and social (Discord).

I researched this before buying, and was very satisfied with my purchase. The picture quality is so much better than the ones usually built into laptops or monitors. The higher resolution provides a crisp picture, especially during video conferencing. It's also handy to have the portability of a separate camera if I need to show something not in the usual field of view. The cost is competitive, and I have recommended this item to others, who have also purchased. The camera may be used folded on its own stand to use on a desk, or opened to rest on top of your monitor. It is very versatile.

Camera itself is decent enough. The problem is with the drivers/antiquated software. Running Windows 10 on a brand new HP Pavilion 595-p0084. Camera & software install ok, but Windows doesn't like the driver files, so, in 10 to 30 minutes (camera not in use), Windows puts it's own driver in. Go to start up the camera..... nope - "RECONNECT". Which means: Go into device manager, uninstall the goofy things windows thinks your camera is, then, search for hardware changes.... camera works again - for a while!! So, if you are the type of person who enjoys installing hardware devices again, and again, and again.... THIS IS THE CAMERA FOR YOU!

I work for Avaya and we use our own products. The product I use is called Scopia. It's a collaboration meeting tool that simply integrates video. Sometimes, I am on 4 or 5 of these calls a day. The internal camera on my Lenovo PC did not look very good on these calls. I have a large bay window behind me that gives a lot of back light. I purchased this camera for 2 reasons. The first reason is that the video quality is perfect. The backlight is not a problem and people on the calls comment about the scene outside my window. The second reason is that the internal mic (dual mic) means that I don't have to use a headset. I position the camera on a second monitor - I have not touched it since. It's worth the price in my case since I use it so often and it integrates perfectly with Avaya Scopia.

The camera and its built-in mike works very well. It is one of the few webcams that have a tripod socket, the standard 1/4-20 thread, making it easy to mount on a standard or improvised copy stand. But I was disappointed to find that its software package does not allow inversion of the image, so you'll need to mount it right side up. I looked for a third party solution, but found none. That made it a mechanical project, which after some tweaking worked out well

Very impressed with the C920, Easy to setup and use, Video and Still shots are outstanding, Price Performance Ratio 5 Stars. I'm glad I decided on the C920, If something happened to it I would buy it again.

I bought this webcam to stream straight from my xbox one. You just plug it in, download the camera app, and you're ready to go! Sits on the monitor nice as well.

I first purchased this item for a simple task and after seeing what a great product the Logitech C920 was I blown away. As a professional photographer graphic, clarity and resolution are a big thing. If your looking for a easy to use but great product. And I have already referred this a ton of my friends. Im certainly getting a second one.
