c922 pro seems best bang for buck so far 💜🫡
It is and 4k is overrated anyway.
yeah, thought the same
for meetings feels good enough, would rather spend that extra time and money on lighting and getting colours right
just think the first impression in meetings is incredibly important and having good video quality helps with that
Agreed, first impressions are important. Imo 1080p or 720p is enough. Once you go 4k you'll have to consider that the viewers, or in your case interviewers, will have to downstream the video in that quality. Hence, if their internet is shit they'll blame the buffering and lag on you.
I stream with a 6,000 bitrate on zapstream with 60 fps at 720p. My bitrate is so high because I play games with fast changing frames / textures which then looks like cubes reassembling on the screen every time you turn IF your bitrate is too low. At 4k I'd have to push with like 10MB/second to get a similar result.
Now, for podcasts, hangouts etc (no games, no high-fidelity graphics 720p with a bitrate of something like 3,500 shall suffice.
for what purpose
what purposes are there?
how much quality do you need
need best bang for buck
c922 pro seems best so far
I took a look at things compatible for Linux, and I'd say to try for a Nexigo camera. The most affordable model is roughly $40 USD (the N60 and N660).
