Logitech C920S HD Pro (1080p webcam)

The C920S HD Pro is the long-running budget webcam answer: 1080p30 with a built-in privacy shutter, a beginner-tier default that just works for calls and casual streaming. Its modest ceiling reflects its age rather than any flaw. Skip it if you want 4K-class detail for streaming faces, where an MX Brio-tier camera is the move.
