Hi. I need recommendations for a webcam for potentially quite fast-paced, online movement classes (Hip-hop, rave & similar street styles).

It basically needs to catch fast paced routines with fast footwork; frame rate is more important than frame resolution but high definition would be a nice extra.

I'm guessing the streaming speed is going to be a factor? Should I start there?

The classes are going to be hosted via Microsoft Teams.

I don't know know anything about streaming, bitrate etc. but I'm guessing that's a potential bottleneck; if necessary I can contact the IP and find out what I'm working with.

Help would be very appreciated. The first class is at the end of the first week of May, so I have to move relatively quickly to get it all set up.

Teams is limited to a maximum of 30 FPS. So I don’t think you would benefit from higher frame rate camera.

 

As for a camera, I would recommend the Logitech C922. It supports 720@60 and 1080@30.

I own the C920 and the quality is excellent. From what I know, the C922 is almost the same as C920 but with the capability to record at 60 FPS.

I am getting pretty fucking sick and tired of the "watch something else" responses. It's such a cop out answer because you could say that about basically anything, and it doesn't address the actual complaints. People use it as some kind of card they pull when they can't actually respond to the criticism raised but they still feel like they need to defend some company/person. If you don't like this thread then stop reading it. See how stupid it is? It's basically like telling someone "shut the fuck up". It's not a clever responsive, it doesn't address anything said, and it is rude.

Brilliant, thanks, and yeah, sorry: end of the first week of June. 😊 

The 30 FPS limit makes things a lot simpler. 

I'll contact the course vender just to verify, but will probably go for the C922. 👍
