Review on 📸 MOSONTH 1080P Webcam with Microphone, Light and Tripod Stand - Auto Light Correction for Video Conferencing, Teaching, Streaming, and Gaming (Black) by Lauren Perry

I bought this unit on sale for $10 (probably the only reason I'm giving it 4 stars) and was pleasantly surprised. Didn't see many reviews so thought I'd add one. I ran some tests and it is indeed 1080p and interestingly accurate 32 fps. Much better than my 720p at 10 fps. This is a sort of fisheye effect, as you can see in the first shot the perspective is heavily distorted at the edges of the lens. The quality is pretty grainy, but it is what it is. My biggest problem is the built-in light. It either seems too bright or the camera doesn't know how to adjust the contrast at all. You can see that the cat's face is very blurry. My desktop has pretty standard lighting, so I'm not sure why it's so bright. There's no way to adjust the camera settings so you just stick with what you get. The second issue is how the camera "snaps" on my laptop. It doesn't seem safe at all, I can't touch it without feeling it fall. It's nice that it comes with a (VERY small) tripod. I will probably use this route more often than connecting a camera to my laptop. I don't want the USB to be connected to a long cable. But it seems pretty standard for webcams at this price point. Other than that, I can't complain for $10. I doubt it will stay $10 much longer, personally I wouldn't pay more than $20 for it. Surely there are better options. It works for what I use it for, despite my issues with it (first image is this camera, second is my laptop's default camera).
