Review on πŸ“· High-Definition USB Webcam: 1080P Camera with Wide-Angle Lens, Mic, and Low Light Sensor for Desktop & Laptop Streaming by Reginald Pitt

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great cheap webcam that works with Octoprint

First I want to say that I only paid $4 because of the coupon. The case takes a week to build and is very flexible when it comes to how it can be installed. It has a built in tripod mount and nice thin foam to keep your monitor from scratching. The camera is connected to the mount with a ball joint that doesn't tilt much but can rotate. It's of reasonable quality for a webcam and is probably the best you'd expect for the price. It works fine with Octoprint on Raspberry Pi. The main problem I'm having is trying to focus the camera. It doesn't have the autofocus that some people prefer because it doesn't try to refocus on random things, so you'll have to use a sleek silver ring around the lens. The ring is difficult to hold because it is small and smooth.
