Good Skype Webcam

I am looking to buy a webcam for my computer. I have some family that want to see me and are far away and so we have decided to Skype. What would be the best webcam for such a need that want be super expansive?

Basically any webcam will do, I would recommend at least a 720p webcam.

Here's a listing of web cams you may find helpful. I would recommend something of at least 1080P resolution. https://www.techradar.com/news/computing-components/peripherals/what-webcam-5-reviewed-and-rated-1027972

I have a Logitech C920 that's never given me any problems though it is $50 (I got mine from my dad's office, they were throwing a PC away that happened to have that on it, got 8gb of DDR3 out of it too.

Thanks for the feedback. I have been looking around and feel that a Logitech C920 or C930e are probably my best bet. I have found both on Amazon for $48 and $59 respectively. wondering If the extra $10 would be well spent for the upgrade to the C930e?

The first one you linked is a refurbished camera, which still may be fine. here is the link to a new one: Logitech C930e

 

Here's a comparison video I found on YouTube  While looking at the video below, I'd say the C930e looks much better.
