Great camera, not for a homemade 3D scanner

Overall a great camera but I needed a higher frame rate for the price πŸ‘Œ. I just want it to have a higher frame rate without losing the high resolution. I was planning to use them for a homemade 3D scanner. It worked, but was VERY, VERY slow because the frame rate was too low at the highest resolution (15 fps at 4K). I needed it when I was 30 or above.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Almost everything there

Disappointing software

This is a good camera that could have been a very good webcam. There are many things for that. good resolution, nice size, variable focal length. But it has one major problem: it's almost impossible to access the settings this camera offers. If there's software for Mac OS, it's well hidden (and certainly doesn't come with the camera). And none of the many settings can be made without software. Without good software support, these cameras are too cumbersome, at least in the Mac world, and end up

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • It's ok

Manual zoom, manual focus, manual iris

I bought two of these and my sister also bought one. We have two good ones and one bad one. ABOUT GOOD (two out of three). They make very good webcams if you have the space. Since they're not as wide-angle as all other webcams, it's more like a portrait lens on a DSLR. And thanks to the zoom, you can crop your image to be just a headshot or (relatively) wide angle. In our application we have a huge (5 inch) computer screen about 5 feet away. We mount this camera on a tripod directly in front of

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Power socket required

Yellow spot in the middle of the video 😞

The design is solid and well worth the money. The picture however. was marred by a yellow tint in the middle of the video, and dust got into the lens. Otherwise the hardware worked, was recognized by my computer and worked fine. I'm very disappointed because as soon as I opened the box I felt like this is a reliable product. *sigh*

Pros
  • The best in its niche
Cons
  • I'll add later
