Best value for a webcam by far.

5 out of 5 stars

Best value for a webcam by far.
Best Budget Webcam Under $70The ROCWARE RC08 is my top pick for the best webcam under $70 on the market thanks to its high-end specs and unique AI-controlled modes. I've been turning down most webcams lately unless they have something unique. I have seen a lot of webcams so you can imagine how a normal 1080p 30fps webcam isn't going to pique my interest.I saw this webcam in amazon, which looked interesting, so I decided to do some research on it. I looked for Youtube videos about it, and I decided to try it. This is a great webcam for many reasons1. ROCWARE have a software download link that can be found in the menu instruction and on their official website.2. Setup in minutes. Speaker is loud enough.3.This webcam have a High sensitivity microphone, so i can adjust the image and noises via the software. This one is great.4. The autofocus is super fast, which is the primary reason to buy that webcam.That being said, it's not bad for an under $70 webcam though, it's not high-end or anything. Fortunately, I got this webcam whose sound quality is better than a laptop's built-in speakers or mic.Hope such a detailed review would be helpful.

    Style: RC08 Webcam with SpeakerVerified Purchase

    I use Zoom meetings a lot and I have several web cams, all of which were $25 or less because with Camo, you can make any camera look great in any lighting conditions. I wanted to start making videos & needed a better camera so I ordered the Movo Webmic Pro but I was very disappointed with it and sent it back. With the credit I got back from that return & the $7 coupon, I only shelled out $8 for this and I am super impressed with the video quality, especially in low lighting. I'm a dark skinned African American and I can have nothing but the backlight from my computer & you can easily see me & everything else like the lights were on. The autofocus is just as fast as advertised & I have yet to see a blurred or out of focus view of myself or anything within view of the camera for that matter. Center Stage mode is not something that I personally like to use but I do like having the option although I wish the button to activate it was better placed. It's a feature you'll accidentally turn on or off every time you want to adjust the angle of the camera. Center Stagemakes the camera zooms in/out every few seconds while simultaneously panning/tilting the view to follow your face. I have stopped paying for Camo Pro, in fact I completely uninstalled Camo & gave away all my other webcams While it is a plug & play device, there is a camera control software & it isn't the easiest to install but using it is pretty straightforward there are video instructions on the RocWear website to help with installation. The speaker is very loud and good for watching videos of video chatting, however, this is NOT something you would want to listen to music on. The microphone is alright but nothing worth writing more about. I would totally recommend this webcam to anyone. For less than $50 you're getting an HD camera with lightning fast autofocus that works great in the darkest of lighting conditions which a built in speaker that's super loud although the quality isn't on par from what you typically expect from Harm.an Kardon. It's an exceptional great value that I would suggest anyone looking for a webcam.

    Style: Webcam Good Mic No SpeakerVerified Purchase

    I recently purchased the Rocware RC28 webcam, and it has been nothing short of a revelation. This webcam has significantly enhanced my streaming experience on Twitch, and I believe it’s a must-have for anyone serious about their video quality.

    The video quality of the RC28 is fantastic, a noticeable upgrade from the built-in webcam on my laptop. The clarity and sharpness of the video feed make for a much more professional and engaging stream. It’s so impressive that I’m considering replacing my current Logitech C920 webcams with the RC28.

    But where the RC28 really shines is in its audio capabilities. The built-in microphone delivers clear, crisp audio that is far superior to many other webcams I’ve used. It captures my voice accurately, ensuring that my viewers can hear every word clearly. This is a huge plus for streamers like me who rely on clear communication with their audience.

    In conclusion, the Rocware RC28 webcam is a fantastic piece of equipment that offers excellent value for money. Whether you’re a seasoned streamer or just starting out, I highly recommend giving the RC28 a try!

    Style: RC08 Webcam with SpeakerVerified Purchase

    This webcam just arrived yesterday (as promised), so I haven't had a chance to use it on an actual Zoom call, but I did test it out today and it looks like it's everything I was looking for. The picture clarity is good, and the microphone picked up my voice with clarity, even from a significant distance from the computer. I have it mounted on top of a desktop monitor; the mounting is not super-secure, but it's good enough, and it was easy to adjust the angle to frame me appropriately. It's true plug-and-play right out of the box. I haven't downloaded the toolbox to play with the zoom or the other settings and controls, but from what I've seen so far, it's probably not necessary under normal circumstances. As far as being a "soundbar", that's a bit of a stretch. Voices are clear, and it's certainly good enough for Zoom calls and the like, but it's not something that I would choose to listen to music through. That wasn't the reason I bought it, and I wouldn't have expected something this size to provide quality music, so that's not an issue for me, and I didn't take any stars away because of it. All in all, it's what I needed.

    Style: Webcam Good Mic No SpeakerVerified Purchase

    This is a great webcam. We are using it in our office conference room, and have been quite pleased with the picture and sound quality. It captures clear and crisp sound from everyone in the room, and the 1080p video is crystal clear. The picture stays sharp even when people move around. You can choose from 3 different FOVs depending on whether it is a one-on-one meeting or a group meeting. It seems like it's using different focus lens rather than software, because there is no decrease in quality when you switch FOVs.

    This webcam has 2 layers of privacy protection: a big LED light that lets you know when it is being used, and a sliding cover that completely blocks the camera lens when not in use. The setup is super easy and quick. The manufacturer mentioned some feature-packed software, but I was able to jump right in to a Zoom call as soon as I plugged it in.

    A couple of minor gripes: the font in the instruction manual was too small, and the FOV control button was not very responsive, and I had to click a couple of times to get it to work.

    Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase!
