#Opal #great #webcam
How much are you willing to pay for webcam greatness?
use irium, use ur phone conect it by cable. done
I’m sure being The Verge you guys have plenty of production muscle behind these videos and everything is scripted and researched before shooting. That said I think for someone doing a camera review, even a webcam, should know the difference between a DSLR (digital single-lens reflex) and a mirrorless. Right? That Olympus OM‑D is the latter.
Get a Sony ZV1, and just connect it via USB. MIles better than any Webcam and super easy.
Such an easy to listen to presenter.
Which webcam is the yellow one on second 0:03?
Great video. I had nothing but problems with the elgato facecam on my Mac. The hardware is quality but the thing wouldn’t initialize and run reliably and the video feed would often just not work. Elgato’s support was not helpful and proactively working to fix the situation.
is this camera latest in 2023. or what is latest web cam„ like win 11
I’m curious, but what’s the difference between the Opal and machine learning, and the Lumina webcam, which boasts the same thing?
(2:59) It seemed great at first, but then the subscription model made me turn away. What if the company were to go out of business?
(5:03) (facepalm at myself) Oh, I use old phones with cracked screens and such, then I use “Autostart and Stay” (“AndSY”) to automatically launch the paid version of Iriun Webcam. I tried DroidCam, but it didn’t work with the phone I used.
Lifecam studio is significantly better
so… 2000$ for a laptop and I still need to pay more to look good? You know what? You can see me in shty quality on a zoom call for all I care. I’ll just turn on light to make it look better
this guy is great. love all the broll of him chillin with friends
You could buy a Sony a5100 for 175 and 15 HDMI capture card and blow this phone camera webcam out of the water.
Great video, great audio, and demo of cam settings and setup. I’ve got clear what I really require from a webcam.
Whats the name of the tiny yellow one at the beginning ?
Hey Cameron, thank you! I just bought one with the code from The Verge. I don’t care about paying a subscription fee as I use this for work. The quality you showed us was amazing and it will go great with my new LG 40 inch widescreen monitor. Again, thanks.👍
Jeez, wasting time and just casually talking windows compatibility a quarter in…
Doesnt the opal overheat constantly even when not in use? And doesn’t thew software run on a subscription?
The Opal C1 is ridiculously overpriced in the world where you can buy a used GoPro Hero Black 8 with like a 4x larger sensor for like the same price.
Downvote for wearing a mask in your home.
