j5create 360 Degree All Around Meeting Webcam

Great --- I have used the Meeting Owl and this probably doesn't have quite the video quality but its no slouch either. Good white balance. I tried this thing outside to test the video quality because it was dark in my house, and apparently the noise canceling technology was muting me in certain places around the 360 degree circle. I hooked up my Blue Yeti mic and this too was canceling some audio but remains an option if ever I run into the situation where there is so much background noise in the surroundings that it will not record well. But indoors the audio is great! It seems to have a pattern of pickup of the microphone that is elongated, perfect for a meeting table. But even the weaker axis of the mic you can be heard 15 feet away if you speak up. Arrange your conference table with the louder people at the ends of the table and face the camera with the mic toward the long ends of the table. (Microphone seems to pick up better at the sides than directly facing it) As far as how it compares to the Meeting Owl (which costs 10X as much!) for features, it does not have a speaker. Big deal bring your own speaker along and plug it into your laptop! The cord is 10' long so your laptop can be out of the way BTW. And this camera does not have a feature that automatically locates and "zooms" in to the person speaking around the table. You can however use the locator bar on top --- just tap it to get the camera to crop to that person you "aim" it to, and the response is instantaneous (whereas the Meeting Owl takes a few seconds to travel over to the person speaking). A feature that is QUITE awesome that the Meeting Owl does not have is the ability to choose your mode. You can actually use this as a regular old webcam and choose between a 90 and a 120 degree angle of view. Love this. Overall I am quite pleased with this thing. I am recommending it to our staff as we are all now involved in hybrid meetings of in-person and overseas participants. Without this device we won't be keeping the overseas people involved...people have zoom fatigue and they are not going to put up with no decent video and poor sound quality. I can see how the feature with the Meeting Owl of not needing a computer being rather appealing but the 10 foot cord that comes with this addresses that if you don't want your laptop on the table. I mounted this on a tripod. there is a metal tripod mount machined out of chromed steel! Pretty impressive. With that feature you could use this in a circle of chairs. I expect this is going to be very useful for face to face meetings where you want it more personal / less formal to get discussion rolling etc. I hope this review helps. This camera might not give quite the impression a Meeting Owl will if you are doing a business proposal for a job with lots of capitol at stake. But its more than adequate for adding an in person touch to zoom meetings. ADDED COMMENT 5/10/2021 this camera is probably best in a brightly lit small to midsized room with people at a 2-4 foot distance from the camera, if you want faces to be a decent recognizable size on the Zoom app. At 6 feet away individuals get to be rather smaller. Mic pickup is decent I think no matter

I tested this 360-degree all-around camera and was impressed by how much area it covers. The panoramic view eliminates blind spots, making it feel like you’re getting multiple camera angles from a single device. Setup was quick, the app was easy to navigate, and video quality was clear. Motion alerts were responsive, and reviewing footage from any direction was simple. The compact design blends in well and doesn’t look bulky. Highlights: True 360° coverage Clear video quality Easy setup and app use Great alternative to multiple cameras Overall, this is a solid choice for anyone wanting full coverage with minimal setup.

I purchased the camera and used it in a small group Zoom meeting recently and it performed well. The instructions are simple. The lack of a phone app to control it is a bit off-putting. There is a companion computer-based program but it's not well designed (the on screen assistance to position the camera is a bit awkward). That said, for the price, it did what we needed.

Great camera, perfect size and awesome clarity and focus. It let's you move it from not only side to side but up and down too. It's a bit big but once you get used to it you'll really love it. Can have different angles and views.

Love the ability to set the J5 Create from narrow to super wide angle to 360 degree view. Picture quality is excellent. It fails with sound quality; the microphone doesn't doesn't work that well when people are sitting more than a couple of feet away. I've used it a few times for Zoom calls and participants have reported that the sound cuts in and out. I need to play around with it some more but that is a major fail in my book. I really don't want to have to mess around with a separate microphone. Build quality is good. Concerned that the cable - props for it being long - is hard wired into the device. I wonder how well that will hold up as I'm winding the cable up after each use.

We hold our condo board meetings as hybrid, in person and online. Easy plug and play plus a good app if you want to play around with it some more. The board sit at a round table and this camera sits in the middle and catches everyone perfectly and makes it look as though they are sitting in line. It is very easy to change the picture to different display options such as one frame showing everyone in line and another frame focused just on the speaker. Some reviews have criticized picture quality but firstly, it is just fine for meetings etc and secondly, for the price it's really good. Put it this way, the picture quality is better than the built in camera in my laptop. This was a great buy for us.

Very easy setup, clear picture and good area coverage

Camera displays a strange multi view. Its mode function is akward to cycle through. Wouldnt recommend this product unfortunately i unboxed it to long after buying so i cant return it to Amazon

もうちょっと期待していたけど、360度版の画像が、小さい！ もう少し大きく鮮明にならんのだろうか･･･ 雰囲気だけの共有 物置に死蔵中･･･

Deze webcam werkt beter dan verwacht. Daadwerkelijk volledig beeld rondom en scherp beeld. Usb kabel er in en direct werken. Daar hou ik van.

Buenas imagen sonido regulin

comoda perché la puoi spostare e anche carina da vedere, installata su un Mac facile!!!

exelente camara
