The metal body feels very strong. I'd expect you'd damage the internals of the camera before coming close to compromising the metal body. The bottom has a threaded adapter so you can easily mount it.
The camera did not require custom drivers on Windows, and I would expect the same on Linux. All I had to do was plug it in and it was ready to capture.
On Windows, using the Amcap software recommended in the included setup guide, the images were quite grainy. Even if you were using this as a webcam I'd think the graininess would be much. This was the case even at the full 48MP resolution (8000×6000). It's a far cry from the clarity you'd get from a smartphone camera from the last couple of years. Given the price, I was expecting better image clarity.
The autofocus was pretty good in my experience. It focused quickly and was usually accurate at focusing on my desired target.
At the time of writing this review, the price of this camera was $139.99. As stated, the capture was quite grainy, and I was hoping for better.
