My laptop and PC cameras were not that great for Zoom calls. Webcams were hard to find and the Logitech ones even harder. I had purchased another brand camera from E B A Y that said it had auto focus and auto controls. Those features didn't work and made the camera unusable. I saw this camera on Amazon and it had a future dated availability date. The reviews for the B525 varied a lot but I took a chance and bought it based on Amazon's easy return policy. This camera works great, very clear image. I only use it for Zoom calls. Using my laptop's Camera program I can can change from auto focus to manual focus. I think those setting carry over to Zoom. It films as a normal image, I know in Zoom you can flip it to a mirror image. I mainly use headphones with a mic but I have tried out the camera mic and was told the sound was fine. Read more

I bought this webcam when I started working from home, and would generally recommend it. The picture quality is crisp, and the built-in microphone is pretty good as well. It's easy to install -- just plug and play -- and it's easy to mount on the computer monitor. Adjusting the angle is pretty easy too, although there is no way to zoom out or in, so hopefully your monitor is a sufficient distance away from your face, otherwise it will look awkward. My minor gripes with this device are: (1) sometimes the webcam is not recognized by my computer, so I have to unplug it and plug it back in, and (2) the camera has this annoying tendency to autofocus and re-autofocus at random times, and there's no manual focusing option or ability to turn the autofocus off.

As a small twitch streamer I needed a webcam. I originally was going to try and find a Logitech C920 but didn't have as much luck. I stumbled upon this little beauty and my goodness it's AMAZING! The picture is good, I can of course adjust its settings with ease in OBS, there is no other drivers needed. It's damn near almost as good as the C920 itself but is missing something, sadly I'm not sure what that is. Someone else may know but, for $60 (might be more now) it's a heck of a deal and perfect for any beginning streamer, YouTuber and hey if you need it for a Skype, Zoom and maybe Discord call, this works perfectly!

I don't know much about cameras, but this one's easy to use, seems to work great, and requires no set up. I just use it for FaceTime and Zoom calls. I am satisfied, especially given the reasonable price. Read more
I am a mental health provider, needing to use video conferencing with Doxy.me with my clients at this time due to the COVID-19 outbreak. I also use it for meetings with colleagues on ZOOM. Of all the participants in my group meetings, my video looks the best in terms of clarity (HD capacity) and sound. Highly recommend. Can't believe it sells for such a reasonable price! Read more
Bought this camera to work from home due to the pandemic. It is the perfect size, it works great, it is very easy to use. Cannot beat the price. Very happy with it. Read more
The quality isn't the best, but not the worst. What really bugs me is that it oversaturates my face sometimes, so I end up looking like a tomato. Additionally, it was very underexposed, and my face always looked very dark. I was able to fix this by installing a separate app on my laptop, and now I am properly exposed, and the white balance is set correctly. Overall, a nice camera, I really like that I can swivel it!
