The HD Pro Webcam C920 is made by logitech and is said to produce 1080p HD video recordings on skype or Facetime if you’re a Mac user. The webcam is made out of glossy and matte black plastics and a clear plastic cover over the optics. Although it has a permanent USB cable attached to it, the cable is typically long enough.
The mount of the webcam is also special as it pivots that allow it to not only brace the webcam tightly so that it won’t fall out easily, but it also has a pivot to change the vertical angle of the webcam. If you don’t feel like attaching the webcam on your laptop lid or computer monitor, there’s a tripod attachment you can place it on your desk instead.
It also has two microphones attached at both sides of the webcam for stereo audio. The C920 also doesn’t require any special software that you are required to install to work properly. All you have to do is plug it in any open USB ports and let it install and if you’re on Windows it would automatically detect Skype.
Though if you’re interested in installing the software that works with it, Logitech’s Webcam Controller software, comes a Control Tab and Effects Tab, the Control Tab has features like auto-tracking, zoom adjustments, tilt, and more. The Effects Tab allow you to add filters, accessories to your face, and more which is typically used if you’re not being serious.
As for performance, comments have pointed out that the video quality was perfect and it was certainly good. The focus, light balance and frame rates were said to be excellent. However, a bluish cast can be seen in drastic lighting conditions but can be easily fixed by turning off red light. For the audio quality, it is really clear and cancels out most background noise. This is really good if you’re in a professional stand point and require clear and a non-noisy background.
In conclusion, if you’re looking for quality video when using Skype or want to use it professionally or casually on streaming services like Twitch, then this would be a perfect webcam for you. The webcam is also isn’t that expensive at the price of S$189.00 retail price. I would recommend this greatly, if you’re planning on starting out streaming or casting.
