People who want to record their presentations for online distribution need a reliable, high-quality webcam.

All of them are easy to use with good software compatibility, so whatever platform or device you're using, you should be able to record with ease.
Let's get started!
The first on our list is the Logitech HD Pro Webcam C922.
Offering 1080p Full HD video with autofocus and premium Carl Zeiss optics, it has every feature you could want in an affordable package.
One of the best webcams for recording, it offers an H.264 format, which means you get high-quality videos without too much file size to deal with. In fact, the maximum resolution for this camera is 1920 x 1080 at 30 fps. It also has a built-in stereo microphone and automatic low light correction technology so that your video always looks good.
The webcam can be used with Skype, Zoom, Microsoft Teams and other popular applications for video conferencing and recording. It's highly compatible too; if you need a webcam that will work on a Mac or Windows computer, then this is a great choice.
Next up is the Razer Kiyo, a webcam that brings some of the best features in one small package.
The first thing to note about this one is its high frame rate of 60fps at 720p HD video support. For those who are unaware, higher fps means smoother videos with less stuttering and blurriness. Making it another fantastic webcam for recording online presentations.
The webcam also has a built-in ring light that provides excellent lighting even in dark environments, and the wide-angle lens means you'll be able to get more of your environment without any distortion or loss of quality.
This one is compatible with most video conferencing platforms such as Zoom and Microsoft Teams, so if you need a webcam that works with many different systems, then this is also good choice.
The next webcam on our list is the Microsoft LifeCam.
This one has a simple design that makes it easy to set up and use, with no need for any additional software or technical know-how. It runs at 1080p HD video resolution (1920 x 1080) at 30fps; which means your videos will have great quality.
The webcam also has built-in stereo microphones that are sensitive enough to record audio clearly, even in loud environments. It's compatible with all major video conferencing platforms, including Microsoft Teams, Skype and Zoom.
The last webcam on our list is a bit of a different one, it’s the Logitech BCC950.
This one comes with four built-in omnidirectional microphones that will give you incredibly clear audio, even if multiple people are speaking at once or in a large room. The camera itself can capture video at 1080p HD resolution (1920 x 1080) and 30fps. The webcam also comes with automatic light correction technology, so the camera will adjust to different lighting conditions as you move around or if there are changes in your environment.
The BCC950 is compatible with all major platforms such as Microsoft Teams and Zoom for those who need a webcam that will work with multiple systems. It's also compatible with Logitech Vid HD, which means you can record 720p video at 60 fps.
The BCC950 is the priciest of the bunch, coming in at a substantial £219.00.
