Our verdict

A sharp, well-built business webcam with autofocus and a glass lens for daily Teams or Zoom calls. Its video chat mode is listed at a lower resolution than its sensor, so expect HD rather than full HD on many calls.

Overview

A high-precision glass lens and autofocus sit in front of the full HD sensor on the Microsoft LifeCam Studio, while TrueColor adjusts exposure automatically. A wideband microphone picks up natural voice, and the camera swivels for an all-around view.

Glass optics and autofocus give a sharp, clean image for business calls. The listing gives HD video chat as the calling mode, so the full sensor resolution mainly applies to recording.

Who it's for

Office and home workers needing a dependable business webcam get autofocus and good color. Content creators should look for a camera with more control.
