Thanks to everyone for all the tips and tricks that are posted in this forum.

 

Curious to know equipment recommendations when it comes to video conferencing.

 

-camera

-speakers

-microphone

 

Yes, there is the '"go big or go home" option $$$$.  And then there is googling/youtube.  Im sure that some of you have been doing this for 100's of hours.

 

Thanks.

I use a LifeCam VX-1000 for Skype, Microsoft Teams and Webex. It was around $70.00 new when I bought it 10 years ago.

You might have a difficult time tracking down a webcam. I spent almost 3 hours trying to locate a vendor that had one. Maybe they have had a chance to restock, but last week there was quite a shortage.

I don't use a camera because they don't want to see my face they want to see what I am drawing for them.  I do use Webex and I use a studio quality microphone that sets on a desk stand that isolates the microphone for vibration.  I get great sound and good quality video.

 Works for me.
