Webcam Recommendation for Online Jobs?

[fishmonk]

Some online jobs require webcams. This is applicable to tutoring online and language teaching.

Are there any webcams which are cheap and reliable for such tasks ?

What are the features and specs which would you consider as decent ?

The minimum requirement is it being a HD webcam.

Would love to hear inputs from you guys .

Thanks.

I don't have much experience with webcams as I usually just use the built-in webcam on my laptop.

The one's I've used in the past didn't have a good quality, even some webcams marketed as HD turned out to have a low quality. So I recommend going with a well known brand.

But I've heard a lot of good things about a webcam from Logitech called Logitech C920. It's a Full HD webcam (1080p) and it's priced at around $60 on Amazon. If you can afford it I would definitely recommend buying it.

Thanks for the information. I will have a look into this. Yes, some products are marketed as HD but still provide blurry recordings. Logitech is definitely well known in my country.
