Review on Logitech HD Webcam C270: Crisp 720p Widescreen Video Calling & Recording (960-000694), Lightweight and Portable at 3.15 lb. by Minju Gim ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The quality was generally satisfied, there were minor shortcomings.

I bought a cat in a bag. As it turned out, the camera's viewing angle is one of the narrowest among analogues. They write that about 45 degrees. Moreover, Logitech itself hides this, and the site does not mention the viewing angle of the cameras, except for the top wide-angle ones. They seem to be treating their customers as suckers. Moreover, the matrix is ​​​​4: 3, and the vertical viewing angle can be increased programmatically, but native software does not allow this. If the narrow field of view suits you, this is a good camera for the money. I bought the wrong product for myself. For hiding the characteristics of the product, I put 3.

Pros
  • 1. Not a high price. 2. Cmos matrix. 3. Good image quality for the price. 4. Good dynamic range for the price.
Cons
  • 1. Very narrow viewing angle. 2. Technical characteristics, incl. viewing angle, missing from the site. 3. 4:3 format matrix. 4. And the video stream can only be used in 16:9. The native program does not allow you to change the resolution for Skype.
