This is a great webcam for video blogs, close up how-to's, one on one conversations, things that are within 5 feet. When you are closer, the audio is good, just be sure to turn off your speakers or you'll get feedback. I did a live stream to YouTube using a laptop and the camera only (with wifi). I used the controller portion of the software that came with the camera to control the camera's zoom, pan and focus features (you can only use the Logitech Webcam Controller (not the software) when live streaming - otherwise, the camera has no image and says it is being used by another program). I also used XSplit Broadcaster for the encoding software. It was free and is very user friendly. I used it to record and live stream an on-stage question and answer session from the front row of the auditorium. After a while, the auto focus didn't like to zoom in and stay focused (a little blurry). The audio really had problems and after the first hour began to get feedback. I was disappointed with the application of the webcam for this purpose. The final outcome was not very good. Pros - very nice for up close recording and live streaming; with the right software, live streaming is easy. Cons - not for longer distance recordings as the sound is weak and there are focusing problems.Read full review

I got it because cheaper Web cams were giving me motion blur. The problem is that they send uncompressed video over USB 2.0, and that won't cut it. However, with the H.264 encoding which this camera can do on the device side, it is possible to send very high quality video over USB 2.0. Unfortunately, the only formats the camera supports in H.264 mode are 1080p and 720p. Since I did not need widescreen but could use a higher frame rate, I was hoping I could get a higher frame rate with 920x720. No dice. You can get a wide variety of other formats using it in Motion JPEG mode, but then you are stuck with the limitations of USB 2.0 throughput. I have communicated with the Logitech support folks, and apparently Logitech is not interested in making it more flexible with respect to the formats it will encode with H.264. I will have to live with 720p at 30 frames per second.Read full review

The Logitech HD Pro Webcam C920 is a great little webcam at a very competitive price. Easy set up and mounting it is simply unfolding it and placing it on your monitor. A chimpanzee could get this webcam up and running. The picture quality is excellent. The mic is plenty good enough for conversation, but it's not good enough for recording music or musical instruments, which unfortunately was why I bought it. Still would recommend it for any and all other uses for its quality, price and easy set-up.

The C920 is about as high powered as a standard webcam from a standard company can possibly get; crisp 1080p, excellent focusing capabilities, and an overall good design. That being said, it has one all-too-common design feature which falls far short of its other capabilities; namely, the connection between the USB cord itself and the webcam at large; this connection point is secured poorly, and is quite prone to slowly degrading until the webcam experiences connection issues; eventually, it unfortunately has a tendency to quit working altogether. The webcam is thus unable to take much abuse; including any twisting of the cord, or any sudden jerky movements, which are more often accidental rather than purposeful. For those who require a more forgiving webcam, Logitech's C525 is probably a better choice; yes, it includes a less advanced focusing capability and the slightly below-par 720p, but its swiveling design significantly reduces the chance of disconnection.Read full review

I was surprised of the Quality of video it captures .I'm going to use it for Screencast reviews .To view your capture of your face on Mac you can use Photo Booth or Face Time. if you have a second monitor it works out great.I'm capturing Video ,Audio ,My Cam plus Dialog. Its great to do all of this in your own home.
