You need this for PSVR, and as long as you get the position right for it, it'll work great. There is a lot of trial an error but take the time to get the tracking correct and it'll make a big difference.

This is the ticket folks! Now you can experience real vr on a reputable and well developed system without any additional hardware required. Initial cost is the lowest of the current vr offerings and offers comparable performance to the higher priced headsets. Only issue is, and this is with any new hardware, the software library is somewhat limited and varies in quality. Other than that it works well on the standard PS4 and even better on the PS4 pro. Get one! What are you waiting for??

I took advantage of a limited-time deal, and picked up the PS4 for $40.00. I'm glad I did, because it is a great camera. I'm now able to stream my games with myself in view, and even use voice commands if need be.
The only downside is that, since the PS4 only uses a proprietary cable for its camera, there's no way to use this anywhere else, such as a computer. Also, because the system only recognizes the special cable, there's no way to use a 3rd party camera on your PS4, meaning you have to shell out the money for this camera if you want to stream gameplay and yourself.
But, if you're serious about game streaming, you can't go wrong with this camera. Mainly because, you have no other choice.

The camera picks up picture decently but where this thing truly shines is its microphone. It's seemingly picks up almost everything in the room

This camera is great quality. My daughter loves to use it for Just dance games and we rarely have to adjust it to fit everyone on the screen.

The camera functions as expected and looks good in action. The only real negatives about it are that the cable is a bit short (6.5ft) and uses a proprietary housing, which means you can't extend the cable or use it for anything but a PS4. This means if you keep your PS4 in a media closet or a moderate distance from the TV, you might have issues finding a place for the camera. If you use a standard entertainment system setup (TV on a stand with consoles underneath) you should be fine.

Not much to say about this camera. It's easy to install and has a built in microphone for talk commands / chatting w/ friends or new players. You may want to change your settings and mute the microphone, as it's always on and can annoy other players if you are not trying to talk w/ other players. It's a must if you want to use the Playstation VR.

I absolutely love my PS4 camera. I use it for streaming a bunch of video games on my YouTube and twitch! It has really good quality and it gets exactly what I need. It also is a great price compared to a lot of other streaming cameras!

I purchased this to go with PlayStation VR and the tracking is great for that. By itself, it's great for what one might use it for like live streaming through the PS4's share feature. I will say that it's not 100% flawless though since it seems as if there might be a slight delay between real life and what I'm seeing through the camera. It's so minuscule though that it isn't a reason to pass on it. All in all though, a great purchase.

Bought this to go with my Playstation VR. Does what it's supposed to do. The VR works great.
Some things to keep in mind: 1) it's sensitive to the vertical mounting height. Too low and you're represented as tall in the VR app, too high and you're represented as short in the VR app. Getting it just the right height can be a problem though - especially if you have a large TV - as the optimal height is right where your screen is. This means you have to have it a little low or a little high; this isn't a big deal - just giving you a heads up. 2) Mounting can be tricky because if your TV is wall mounted you probably won't have a shelf to set it on. Pro tip: buy one of those suction-cup cell-phone holders for your car and mount that to the bezel of your TV. Works like a charm. If you have a low-bezel TV, you'll just have to be creative. However, if you're using the camera for VR, it doesn't really matter because you can just stick it to the TV. It's not like you'll see it anyway (what with having a VR headset on).

You'll need this for the VR and Move controllers, but it works great with them. It also has a microphone and follows voice commands, making it similar to the Kinect in that regard. I can't give it a glowing review because it's not really needed unless you have the devices listed above.
