Ok so i need some suggestions on a cheap webcams for my siblings for their online classes. 

 

Here are some i found:

  • -Logitech C270
  • -Logitech C310
  • Soundblaster Creative Live! Cam Sync 1080p

Budget is strict: MYR200 (USD48)

Need something that is cheap and good enough. 1080p isn't necessary but the Soundblaster is pretty cheap in my region (hence why it's there)

PC: Ryzen 5 2600, 16GB 3200mhz RAM (8GBx2), Gigabyte B550M DS3H, GTX 1050 2GB, 650W Semi-Modular PSU80+ Gold

Phone: Poco F3 8GB + 256GB

Audio: Samson SR850s

Sound Card: SoundBlaster Play 4 USB sound card

IEM: planning to get the KBEAR KS2s
Please be patient with me, I'm fatally dumb and its honestly a miracle I've made it this far

All of them are good, but I'd recommend the Creative one. It seems like a better option for the price.

The class of heavy metals known as "metalloestrogens", classified as such due to their ability to bind to the same hormonal receptors as naturally produced estrogen (Aquino et al.), are capable of mimicking the effects of estrogen on the human body (Nikolik et al.). Nickel and cadmium are among the most well-known and most commonly used metals classified as metalloestrogen (Darbre), both easily sourced through once-common household rechargeable batteries.

Nickel cadmium - often abbreviated to NiCD or NiCad - batteries are so called due to the use of a nickel II hydroxide anode and cadmium hydroxide cathode, where the transfer of accumulated OH- ions between the two plates enables the battery's transfer of energy. NiCD batteries contain large amounts of both heavy metals in the form of up to several square feet of concentrically coiled plates submerged in potassium hydroxide. Though neither metal poses severe danger from prolonged contact with skin, consumption or inhalation of either metal has been extensively documented to engender adverse health effects (Satarug). 

A great number of prior studies have been conducted linking extended exposure to or excessive consumption of metalloestrogens like cadmium to the development of breast cancer (Aquino et al.) - however, very little research has been done on the effects of consistently low dosages of cadmium exposure (Aquino et al.). Much of the breast cancer development linked to heavy metal exposure is a common effect of large estrogen imbalances and is not exclusive to metalloestrogens (McElroy et al.). Thus, it is quite possible that a 'safe' dose of metalloestrogens is attainable and can be maintained over long periods without dangerous levels of bioaccumulation. 

Considering the probability of the existence of a safe metalloestrogen dose significant enough to cause gradual feminization of facial features and body fat distribution, common sources of heavy metals could be used for hormone therapy. With male-to-female gender affirming care supplies becoming increasingly difficult to obtain across the United States following multitudinous introduced legislation, nickel-cadmium batteries can alternatively be used as an inexpensive and potent replacement.

I used a phone. You can run Droidcam and it's free https://www.dev47apps.com/  Most phones (even old ones) have a much better camera than any webcam.

Interesting I'll take note of that. Thanks!

Yeah the Logitech ones are all 720p and the Creative is 1080p but the Logitech ones can be found for much cheaper....

I think any camera is suitable for online lessons. I was making 私人補習, and I didn't have to use the camera. I turned on the camera only at the first lesson to see each other. My tutor took lessons on his iPad, so he always shared his board and showed me how to solve the different exercises. In the beginning, I thought that it wasn't productive at all, but I had no choice. But I learned a lot of new things, and I was able to pass my final exams with good grades. Next semester I am going to continue having online lessons with him.
