Great price, love the flexibility

I was most interested in this camera for the ring light with multiple brightness levels in white/cool and warm light. I video call more than 7 hours a day for work and my camera/light setting is very important to me. It also changes during the day because I'm sitting by the window. This camera offers great flexibility to adapt to my current office environment. I'm comparing it to my previous Logitech C525 webcam that my office provided. Logi costs over $200, but the camera itself is several years old now - we had it before the pandemic. Please note that the images attached are screenshots from a Zoom meeting and are therefore partially influenced by what Zoom is doing with them. . Use this to compare two cameras in Zoom but not see the full potential of either camera. Pros of the Sansisco Camera: + MUCH sharper than Logitech. I thought Logitech was clear until I saw Sansisco - now I can't go back. + Works very well in low light + Light touch controls are very responsive + Different brightness levels and warm light against white - I love it + Drivers install automatically and it was up and running in seconds. more fisheye than other cameras I've had, which can cause "selfie distortion" when sitting close. I usually sit farther away and don't see distortion in selfies, but I'm also smaller in the frame than a camera that's zoomed in a bit more - it seems to lose focus more often than other cameras I've had. General observations (not necessarily pros or cons)* The view is much wider than Logi's, partly due to the fisheye effect, and may or may not be helpful to some. Straight lines (like door frames) end up looking curved.* I find that the white balance on the Sansisco is a bit more yellow/pink than on the Logitech camera.* Sharper images mean you can see any stray hairs! :) * My face looks blurry/airbrushed on Sansisco - I'm wondering if some sort of filtering is applied? Overall I think this is a great, great $50 camera even though I bought it on sale. so I can get even more for my money. It has already replaced my Logitech camera for my work, which is 90% video calling. Fantastic product!
