"I even washed them accidentally and still worked perfectly fine afterwards."
"Been using them for about four years working out in my gym, and cycling daily (45+ minutes on a bicycle outdoors)."
"They last absolutely forever (I know 1980s models still in daily use)"

"I found the live beam 3's on sale on Amazon for 129! ... For the price, I don't think I'd find better."
"An S8 would be great for vacuuming your rugs and carpets ... For $350, my two S8s are very hard to beat! ... Almost all of the ones I thought vacuumed, very, very well have been discontinued except for the S8. ... If a Mova V50 can do 80% as well as our cheap S8s I would be pleased!"
"Overall I think these are super impressive especially for the price. ... These could be bargain of the year.. I'm very happy so far with them"

"I've been using my c920 Logitech for 10 years now and it still works as well as on day 1"
"I made it all the way to partner with a webcam, so obviously my community doesn’t mind it"
"Love the C920, have bought several and they have all done me great ... Logitech C920 series is solid and I've been championing it for like 10 years ... there's a reason it has been the defacto main go-to webcam for so many years"

"May auto focus tsaka auto light correction na siya kaya sulit na sulit."
"It offers amazing image quality"
"decent quality if you give it enough light (and white-balance it!) ... A decent 2 or 3-point lighting setup will make a major difference"

"the software was such trash that it would constantly lose my keybinds or simply stop responding mid fight."
"the ONLY reason i switched to the anker webcams is because for some reason, my computer just stopped being able to detect the webcams. it wasn't a webcam issue since they worked on other computers, so it was software-related. ... my ankers didn't crash, the logitech ones did. ... with the logitechs, i tried everything, even reverting to the older webcam software that some people suggested, reverting to numerous drivers/OS checkpoints, etc. nothing worked. something just completely hijacked those usb serial connections to the webcam and wouldn't let go."
"Yeah they reset every fucking time, very, very annoying ... It wasn't. It still kept the auto focus on, auto white balance etc all the annoying crap."

"One thing you definitely will have to leave unchecked is the Low Light Compensation option under camera control. It will be like night and day. When on, the camera looks horrible, bleached and you move in slow motion."
"I used Logitech C920 webcams before and fought with different programs to keep settings and had to use so many lights. Then the next day whatever I set it too would look like something else and I'd have to adjust it again."
"it has pretty bad reaction to changing lighting in a room"

"I have the Logitech c920 and it doesn’t respond well to the V4l2-ctl commands in Crowsnest. ... Sometimes I can get them to work, but they’re often ignored. ... Exactly. Who wants to SSH into their RPi to set their focus and exposure before every print? Not me. ... It’s an annoying aspect of the c920 and an extra hassle I’m trying to help the OP avoid. ... If you don’t mind a fuzzy and over- or under-exposed subject then it’s a non-issue. ... For a basic stream to view progress it might work just fine. But why spend $50 on a camera that requires extra work to focus. ... I recommend something you can set via the config file on Crowsnest."

"1080/30 is very sloggy at this point, I genuinely don't understand why people are recommending this as if 1080/30 is acceptable nowadays. ... they are unfortunately severely outdated now. ... it's just a bit awkward in 2025. ... if you care for any type of performance then it's outdated at this point."
"It's USB2 only, no 4k, no 60fps at highest resolutions though."
"I have a c920 as well and the anker dunks on it without a doubt. Skip the c920 in 2025 imo"

"Adamantly here to say the C920 is absolutely garbage. ... Unless you’re in the most perfect of rooms, the white balance and exposure of this webcam is truly awful and you’ll need a white index card to calibrate it constantly."
"Yeah they reset every fucking time, very, very annoying ... It wasn't. It still kept the auto focus on, auto white balance etc all the annoying crap."
"Then I turn off autofocus because it is what usually causes the focus to blur on my c920."
I've been using a Logitech C920 for the past few years and no one has complained about not being able to hear me or understand me. [https://www.logitech.com/en-us/shop/p/c920s-pro-hd-webcam.960-001257](https://www.logitech.com/en-us/shop/p/c920s-pro-hd-webcam.960-001257)
r/homeoffice • Best webcam with a GREAT mic? ->Elgato Facecam Neo, Razer Kiyo, if you want a built-in light or Logitech c920 series. Take your pick, all for less $100 usd typically
r/streaming • Best webcam under 150$? (I want the best quality) ->Look into the nexigo series, super affordable great quality, I personally have a nexigo N60 cam, it replaced the c920 cam I bought under advice and ended up hating. If you’d like a comparison my twitch name is the same as this username and my recent vods show me using both the nexigo N60 (facecam) + the c920 as my desk cam to see for yourself and make an informed decision (: best of luck on your cam journey!
r/Twitch • Cheap webcam suggestions for the best lighting? ->I went through a couple before I settled on this one [https://www.logitech.com/en-us/shop/p/c920s-pro-hd-webcam.960-001257?crid=34](https://www.logitech.com/en-us/shop/p/c920s-pro-hd-webcam.960-001257?crid=34)
r/WGU • What kind of webcams are everyone using? ->I've never been asked to take a picture of my ID since moving to this web cam. The main thing I was looking for though was wider field of vision since they always had me hugging my monitor to keep my head/hands/mouse/keyboard/monitor in view.
r/WGU • What kind of webcams are everyone using? ->I have a Logitech 920 and a Sony ZVe10 both connected via usb , work fine.
r/macmini • Has anyone made a webcam work on Mac mini? I tried with hub, connector etc but it does not detect the webcam. Which connector and webcam works? ->I started with Razer Kiyo and then got a C920 Pro HD.
r/Twitch • Which face cam should I get as a beginner streamer? ->The one you linked looks bad because its not a real brand. If your just doing job interviews, it will be enough but for actual streaming quality is very important. https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Webcam-C920S-Privacy-Shutter/dp/B08DRQ66WP?crid=2EV4DRNRTPOT9&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.kR7wj9aWqwdB0BnDYAxjlGafwzUJxHbfKnhWbwA9gwVbk9fE0Zu0-eX8K4cz_yxcDptf-wqp-pYOucHEEgzUZU_UXPP2c6VdIdp11AkGbpm2m7JAdLz6Occ_NLBF1s_YG0jev1GBvMm1zcb5tP0XsuaUZJh3QjajQayLwQc79-3dmNUpoSmoT6mCSN2VPfcVgvdSjyRKZX9-Bv0TOG6QEA.8-LujLPTZ1fMoeR80V40l6tC0uyROiiRzvQaC8FkAqE&dib_tag=se&keywords=logitech+c920&qid=1758074262&s=electronics&sprefix=logitech+c920%2Celectronics%2C347&sr=1-3
r/streaming • Is the webcam any good? New to streaming (I know literally nothing lol) ->Strange but effective. No matter what I tried (different brightness and color temperatures, open/closed window blinds at different times of day, camera brightness boost, meeting brightness boost, etc.), I always looked pale-to-grayish on camera. Out of frustration I bought a ring light and suddenly I looked like myself! Maybe it was just my Logitech C920S HD Pro webcam, but the ring light improvement was not subtle. My PM even complimented me on the difference. Working remotely. people definitely respond to us - and trust what we’re saying - based in part on how we look. As a manager, I need to be as effective as possible in meetings for my team to succeed. I consider the ring light to be an excellent career investment.
r/workfromhome • we spend hundreds on ring lights and good mics but nobody talks about how bad most webcams are in normal room lighting ->I'm having nothing but problems with my C920X. Freezes with Instant Messenger (FB) and all the tests I run do the same thing. Seems like it's a driver issue. Not sure I'd recommend it...in fact I'm sending mine back to Amazon.
r/obs • Guys can you recommend me a Webcam not very expensive and with good resolution ? ->I have to disagree. Just installed my new Logitech C920X and it freezes on every test and on Instant Messenger. Pretty sure it's a driver issue. Running Win 10. Not what I expected from Logitech...should be a simple plug and play.
r/obs • Guys can you recommend me a Webcam not very expensive and with good resolution ? ->Logitech c920 is the gold-standard starter cam. 1080p30, decent quality if you give it enough light (and white-balance it!). To stress, make sure you have planned your lighting setup, and if you have not, spend a bit of time watching at least basic lighting-for-videography tutorials on YouTube. A decent 2 or 3-point lighting setup will make a major difference, even if it's just bowl-reflector worklights with high-CRI bulbs and cheap diffuser socks from Amazon. Stepping up from there on the cam goes to the realm of the Elgato Facecam series, in the $250 range. (Which also need good lighting to give best results.)
r/Twitch • guys whats the best price to performance webcam for 1080p 30fps under 100 usd ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
