• Any suggestions for (not that expensive) webcams that are wider angle? My Logitech C270 seems very close up on my face compared to my laptop webcam and other people on calls.

    (From C270 page, The lense with 60-degree field of view covers all of the action.Diagonal field of view (dFoV): 55°)

  • Is it doing something ‘clever’ in software so that it can face track/keep you center frame?

  • 60 degrees field of view is the equivalent of a 32mm lens: https://www.nikonians.org/reviews/fov-tables

    Wide, but not super wide. Seems to be pretty standard for webcams though. Are you sitting very close to your screen?

  • I have a logitech C920 which I find loads too wide by default and use the software to compensate. Specs say it's 78deg.

    Might be a bit on the spendy side tho.
