My solution: Download DroidCam, use your phone's camera as a webcam. Night and day difference versus awful built-in laptop cameras, only takes a few minutes to pair the first time.

Granted, the positioning is a bit annoying. If I did it more often, I'd get a tripod.

I've got DroidCam X and it's very flaky with random freezes and disconnects, where I have to relaunch the PC-side app.

I do this with Camo. Same idea. An old SE 1st-Gen and Velcro on the back of one of my monitors solves the positioning issue.

There a significant added lag though, with audio and lips out of sync.
