HD filming (720p)
Historically the first of the high definition
HD (720p) standards. Initially, it assumed a resolution of 1280x720, however, in webcams, models with a different frame size are also included in this format — in particular, 960x720 and 1280x960, which have a 4:3 aspect ratio of the frame (unlike the original 1280x720, for which it is 16:9 ). Anyway, HD-models are relatively inexpensive and not particularly demanding on the quality of communication, however, they allow you to get a fairly detailed “picture”.
Focus
Focus method — focus — provided in the design of the camera.
The simplest and most common option is manual focus; it requires some setup steps, but does not cause any particular difficulties, besides, it allows you to set the sharpness as you wish, without relying on automation.
Autofocus, in turn, saves the user from having to fiddle with the settings, however, it is also more expensive. In addition, autofocus systems may not work as you would like, and they still sometimes have to be adjusted manually (however, such a need is extremely rare).
Field of view
The viewing angle determines, first of all, how wide the field of view of the camera is, what area of the scene being shot falls into the frame. Accordingly,
a wide viewing angle allows you to capture more space and the lower the likelihood that something of what is happening will be behind the scenes. On the other hand, it should be taken into account that a strong increase in viewing angles leads to distortions of the “picture”, especially at the edges, as well as to a decrease in the size of visible objects and a decrease in detail.
