HIGH-DEF WEBCAMS

Show off your every imperfection with a hi-res PC camera

Logitech C922

The C922 copes very well with low light conditions. It also incorporates a decent mic, and the fact that it comes with its own mini tripod is a great touch. Don’t buy it for its built-in chroma key features, though, as they’re rubbish. £85, logitech.com

Razer Stargazer

Works with face recognition in Windows Hello and is capable of producing 3D scans of objects. Razer’s Stargazer is more than just a webcam; integrating Intel’s Realsense tech, it’ll efficiently strip out backgrounds. £140, razerzone.com

Microsoft LifeCam Studio

With this intimidating cylinder atop your laptop screen, you’ll never forget you’re being watched – but the quality is sharp and the auto focus means you’ll always be pin-sharp in vision. Showing its age a little, though; despite the 1080p sensor, it can only stream at 720p. £60, microsoft.com
