The Horror Of The New Webcam
Having recently updated my sound system, mouse, keyboard and monitor I thought, well, may as well do the webcam as well. So, a Logitech 720/1080p was purchased. The only problem I had with it was freeing it from the ridiculous amount of cardboard in the box.
Just plugged it into my Windows 10 machine and it just worked, sound and vision, face tracking etc, no software or drivers to install.
But when I saw myself peering back at me, I thought: "Who's this wrinkly old guy, this is not what I see in the mirror" High resolution seems to bring out the worst in my features, no, surely this is not how I would look if recorded with a camcorder?
Granted, the lighting in the room is not great, just a fan with a 40 watt bulb, and it seems to have an automatic low light boost. But surely I can look better than this? Any tips on light placement to show yourself off/light yourself better. I really don't look that bad.
