Review on πŸŽ₯ Amcrest AWC195-B: 1080P Webcam with Mic for Desktop - HD USB Web Camera with Privacy Cover, Wide Angle Lens & Superior Low Light Performance by June Reeves

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Premium quality webcam

While I work from home and everyone needs a webcam for video conferencing, it was difficult to find webcams from well-known brands, so I went for it Try Other Brands. I was surprised to see the well known Amcrest brand. My security cameras are Amcrest so I decided to try this webcam as well and expect the same quality. I've been using this webcam for 4 days now and I'm impressed. The package is small, it contains a webcam, a protective case and a user manual. I didn't even have to read the instructions, as soon as I connected the webcam to my computer (see my video) it came up automatically. I like it when my room is dimly lit, so it was a little dark on the webcam, but once I adjusted the exposure in the Windows app I was using, everything was crisp and clear. For most users with good lighting, this camera will do just fine, and no adjustments are required. I'm surprised by the low light performance of this webcam, some other cheap webcams show a lot of grain in my type of lighting, but this webcam performs exceptionally well, almost comparable to the $120 webcam I use for streaming gameplay have. The protective cover is also a big plus. In the age of cyber espionage, physically protecting your webcam is a must. I also like the tripod mount on this webcam (see my video) as it offers more versatility in placement to have a better viewing angle. I also have a sophisticated home office and this camera's USB cable is long enough to put anywhere. Overall I like this webcam. The image is sharp and clear (after some manual adjustments). The versatility and physical security are great. If you are looking for a webcam, this webcam is a great alternative to those expensive popular brands. Highly recommended.
