The compact design works with both desktops and laptops, and Full HD resolution delivers a crystal-clear view.

Similarly, the camera’s security mode-you can activate motion-detection so that it records video when it senses movement-might be a novel way to keep an eye on your desk when you’re away, but it’s no substitute for a true security camera and you probably won’t use the feature for much else.įor a consumer-grade webcam, the Logitech HD Pro Webcam C920 really impressed with stellar video and audio. You’ll likely use the pan feature only to set up your initial framing. I found the camera’s 78-degree field of view to be more than enough to accommodate up to two people in the frame, making it a great choice for small-group powwows. Audio was also clear and full and with minimal ambient noise. Even the video recorded from the C920 was more impressive than my laptop cam’s live image. By comparison, the images from my Dell laptop’s webcam looked dull and grainy.
Video quality is shockingly crisp, with clear details and vibrant colors. When using the C920, the “pro” in “pro webcam” becomes immediately apparent. (For use with Windows 7 or Vista, you’ll need to manually download and install Logitech Webcam Software.) The app lets you zoom and pan the camera, capture video and photos (up to 15 MP), toggle between multiple webcams, and adjust your camera’s settings. Just plug in the attached USB cable, and the required Logitech camera app is downloaded automatically.
The C920 requires minimal setup in Windows 8.1 or 10. Its list price is $100, but these days the Logitech HD Pro Webcam C920 can usually be found for less-sometimes as low as $50.
