Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great value for money

The camera arrived quicker than I expected and was very pleasantly surprised with both the picture quality and the sound quality. It can easily stream at 30 fps (if the computer can accept that). Unlike my Logitech C310, it doesn't throw any error messages in OpenCV; I was very satisfied with this as well. The audio worked fine on Windows 10 but couldn't get it to work on Linux (Kubuntu 18.04), but since I only got it for video I didn't waste time filming it. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that the camera doesn't indicate when it's actually sending video over USB - the LED only indicates power, not video streaming. I consider this a privacy risk - I want to know when the camera is recording when I'm looking at it. The tripod thread (1/4" x 20) in the multifunction mount also provides even more possible uses. Since this mount has a metal core, I could easily cut one of these myself and I will show two of them. Use cases that allow If this camera has a "Video On" LED instead of a Power On LED I would have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone.
