Svpro 4K Camera HDMI USB Dual Interface Manual Zoom Webcam for PC, 2.8-12mm CS Mount Lens,for Close-up, CMOS IMX415 Industrial Camera for Machine Vision

This camera is a hidden gem in my opinion.It is so small and compact. I've only tested this camera plugged into my laptop (without a dedicated GPU) via USB, and the quality is extremely good. You're probably going to get better quality through the HDMI and into a capture card (like the Elgato Link or something similar), but don't be dissuaded from getting this if you don't have a capture card as the quality through the USB is fantastic.Some things to note; everything about this camera is manual... From the focus, the zoom, and the aperture. I'm not a camera whizz, but it was easy enough to adjust everything to the way I need it, and micro adjustments are just as easy. There are some thumb screws for each of the adjustments to lock them in place so you don't accidentally change the focus, etc. when you pick it up or move it.It has a standard 1/4 inch / 20 mount so will fit any standardised tripod, c-clamp camera mount, boom arms.After spending ages trying to get my GoPro Hero 9 to output in any kind of acceptable quality when connected as 'webcam', this is a game changer.

Really sharpe image quality. Works well with OBS. Used for overhead shot for crafting at a desk and then producing YouTube Videos.

This is a nice camera, but difficult to adjust levels, like contrast and exposure. This can only be done with remore control software. For the rest the camera is ok for what it cost.

The SVPRO 4K Camera is a decent camera with adjustable zoom, focus and brightness. It provides a much better quality image than my computers webcam and was plug and play to set up.It actually took me some time to figure out how to adjust it as while there is an instruction sheet that comes with the camera it is very brief and lacking in any instruction as to how to adjust or operate the camera. When it arrived I found I could adjust the brightness via the 'O' and 'C' section which turns freely. I could see there were screw threads and tried adjusting those but turning them did nothing. I finally figured out that the screw threads are just to hold settings in place and when unscrewed you can then adjust the focus and how wide the shot is. You can go from Go-Pro style fish eye to very zoomed in.The instructions lacking this simple guide sum up this camera. Mostly it seems well made and then some things just seem ill thought out. The lens cap for instance touches on the lens and the lens had marks on it from this when it arrived. The instructions are better than average but still have odd typos in there and do lack instruction on actually using the camera.Picture quality is good, not amazing, but much better than with a normal web cam. While the title reads "CS Mount Lens Camera for Close-up" this does not focus close up. The sound recorded by the camera is pretty poor, there is hiss there too so you would need a separate microphone if using this as a webcam or such.It does have a standard tripod crew mount under the angled frame mount it has.I found this a mixed bag, the camera, and the cords it comes with, feel very well made, the instructions, box and ill fitting lens cap let things down.

I have been using this for a few days now and I have found this to be a wonderful camera.The images that this is producing are very nice.I am just waiting for an adapter to see if this will function on my stereo microscope, I have my fingers crossed that it will, having said that, I have already hooked this up to my monitor to be able to scan items so that I can see them in detail, and I have to say it is doing that job, wonderfully.I have even tried this on my laptop through usb and it connected straight away with no issues, once again it produced wonderful images, I didn't find it as clear as it was just on the monitor, but I think that was down to me and not the camera, also, possibly down to the drivers and software used by the laptop, whereas the monitor doesn't have those kind of constraints, it is basically an image produced by the HDMI port, therefore less faff, Unfortunately I cannot record the images produced that way, hence the need to plug it into the laptop.The device itself feels, extremely well made and very robust, even the leads provided feel really nice.All in all a very nice usb / HDMI camera, Highly recommended.
