I've actually been looking for a good webcam (with a big DSLR-like sensor) for the last few years, and this seems like the perfect product. Too bad it waited so long to come out...

Most laptop webcams are terrible. Heck, most desktop ones are too. Even the high-megapixel ones have an image quality comparable to 10 years ago, and the average smartphone will blow them out of the water (hence Apple adding the iPhone as webcam feature, I guess).

It's actually rare to see a webcam with a sensor this big (half inch/12.7mm).

But yeah, god, that is probably the single worst product page I've ever seen in my life. When I tried to scroll down to the specs section, it locked itself into a giant version of its logo and I couldn't do anything else. Sigh. So annoyed by the website I left, even though the product is of real interest...

You can get a mirrorless camera and set it to webcam mode (1) or get an HDMI (2) or SDI (3)capture card that will show up a USB webcam interface on your computer and use a camera with the appropriate output format.

How do you mount it to the top of your monitor? Also seems like a lot of hassle and expense compared to a webcam...

Not one size fits all, I'd probably look around B&H camera rig section.

The Insta360 Link does a decent job. Hard to beat a mirrorless camera.

(I use both almost daily for my trainings.)
