Teacher. Why waste money on a docking camera. Worth the price!

Tried to teach a distance learning lesson for high school today. It arrived this morning and worked flawlessly - basically "plug and play". Works well with Zoom and Meet. This solved a few problems for me: I use a second monitor and a laptop, but depending on the topic, I often use a laptop's touchscreen. But when I did, it seemed like I wasn't looking at the students, my head was turned away from my laptop's camera. I was able to quickly turn it into a document camera so students could solve equations and draw diagrams (much easier on paper than on a computer) and see thin graph paper clearly. Writing went smoothly - no student complaints of glitches or lags, as had previously happened with my pre-recorded video attempts. It seemed to do better glare reduction than my laptop's camera, and I was able to adjust the angle slightly. It seems silly but I used hair ties to tie the camera to the gooseneck lamp. Quick easy fix that worked fine for me. I appreciate how easy it is to rotate the camera and adjust or balance it. The wiring seems solid, but since the wiring is a bit stiff, there was a bit of fiddling involved. Since I'm exchanging, I'm taking this little camera with me. This will make my life easier once I recognize the hardware and it's smaller than a 3x3 pad. Very happy with it so far.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
