You can get a webcam on Amazon for about $22: https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Desktop-Widescreen-Calling-Recording/dp/B004FHO5Y6/ref=sr_1_5?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1494217946&sr=1-5&keywords=webcam | I hope they've gotten back to you at this point.
Here's my camera.
Throw more money at it if you want to, this thing is cheap and effective and chances are you, like me, aren't pretty enough to need more <3 It has zero features outside of being a camera.
You'd probably be better looking on amazon for one. Try this one

Nothing, just plug in the USB, the mic is built right in. Like this for example (just an example, not really recommending this one) https://www.amazon.ca/Logitech-Widescreen-Calling-Recording-960-000694/dp/B004FHO5Y6/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?dchild=1&keywords=webcam&qid=1625728460&sr=8-6
Now if you're gonna be podcasting or streaming and need really high quality audio, this won't be what you need, but in general it's more than fine for zoom meetings or whatever
I use a Logitech webcam taped to the back of my computer monitor it works well. It cost me like $40. Test your lighting for glare on your sleeves. Below is a link for amazon of the current model that I use.

Its definitely not like mtgo you get to talk to people and have real interactions and play real paper magic just through a camera theres wvem the occasional tournament like 2 nights ago for a foil misty rainforest. If you need a web cam this is the one ive recently got and that the server recommends its 17$ on Amazon Logitech C270 Desktop or Laptop Webcam, HD 720p Widescreen for Video Calling and Recording https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004FHO5Y6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_.OzxEb93P424J
I used to use this for my handcam and it's not bad, minor adjustments to clean it up. Most webcams are adjustable.
I have an older model of this and it works well enough. It's on sale for $20 as well, so that's good.

Youtube no genera muchos ingresos, lo otro es que necesito una Webcam HD y no dispongo de una en este momento, si alguien de este thread se siente en capacidad de ayudar y me puede echar una mano con esta camara Logitech C270 lo agradezco. Yo me encargo de pagar envio.
Como tal no busco monetizar sino mas bien ayudar, tengo varios meses con esa idea, incluso puedo dedicar una hora a la semana para dar ayudas online y aclarar dudas. Creo que inicialmente iría con Python, porque no necesitarían hierros para ejecutarlo y programar en el.
This is the only webcam I find close to your budget. It's a 720p cam, but I can't attest to how well it works.
I've used F2P clients before, and while they work it's not the same as paper magic. Being able to have a group of people other than a local scene is really nice. The webcam think I understand but there is one on most laptops and a pretty cheap one that does well:https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Desktop-Widescreen-Calling-Recording/dp/B004FHO5Y6/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1498360780&sr=1-3&keywords=logitech+webcam
For a cam I would suggest this https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Desktop-Widescreen-Calling-Recording/dp/B004FHO5Y6
It doesn't look spectacular but it's cheap and looks fine when it's just a portion of the screen.
And for the mic I'd suggest just messing around with your settings, that'll fix almost any audio balance problem. That way you don't blow anything now and you can save up for a good mic!
Buy a disposable video camera for it. Here's one for under $25
Or save an old smartphone when you get a replacement.
I have this one and while it's both cheaper and more reputable, I have it and it works fine for skype and obs
I have a couple of these these for security purposes. They work perfectly, running 2 can be real hard on the computer. They have decent low light and the video looks good.
I used this for a few weeks. After tweaking the settings, everything looked absolutely fine, I only ended up upgrading because the c920 was on sale at the time.
Here! Plug it in to a laptop, point it at the stage, and charge $5 to watch it. Congrats, you've got ROI after 5 viewers.
This is the one I use. Works great, good brightness in darker scenarios, and has a decent mic built in.
Just took some time looking around and found this for $15 used so I think I'm going to go with it unless you can convince me that yours is worth the extra 10 bucks.
I use this - Logitech HD Webcam C270, 720p and the image is pretty clear, for the $25 I spent. Just keep in mind to give yourself some good lighting if you plan to use a cam.
Don’t trip on the webcam too much. Maybe get a 20-40 dollar one from Amazon. And check out a streaming software like OBS or StreamLabs on YouTube to see which one that you like. Then get a capture card. This is the first one I had but now I have a Elgato HD60 pro. Really they both work fine. The real hard part is sticking to it even when no one is watching for months. I’ve been at this for almost a year and a half and I’m still enjoying it. But I’ve had ups and downs for sure.
Just get the basics and START then worry about the best of the best stuff later. To really stick with it you gotta be able to do it even if it’s going slow. Quality equipment won’t help you enjoy yourself.
Ask me anything anytime. Good luck
The Logitech C270 isn't too bad, and it's a bit older so it should be well under $50 USD.

Do you have a webcam? That's what I'm using to record myself so I can watch my hands and identify errors that need to be fixed. I've only been playing for a year, but a few months into playing I bought a $25 logitech webcam from amazon Logitech C270 and it's really helped me improve, and I can recommend this model. I just wanted to have something that would clearly show the strings and not get too blurred, which is the problem I had with using my phone. I also use it for skype calls and whatnot, so I consider it a decent $25 investment until I get better and want "real" recording equipment. If you want to see what the recordings look like on it, you can look at some of my vids:
Indeed they are. But they’re out of stock for three weeks:

$25, reliable, good enough for video meetings. Definitely closer to medium for video quality.

This is 720p, so not the sharpest image, but it's sufficient for remote meetings.
Both of you should already have Skype installed. You may need to create a profile.
The Logitech C270 is a basic webcam that should do well for starters. One of the highest quality ones that Logitech offers is the BRIO.

If money is an issue I would look at something like a Logitech C270. They're not as nice as a 920 or 922, but they can stream at 720p and with a bit of colour correction they can look great. Chances are you aren't streaming above 720 anyways.
https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Desktop-Widescreen-Calling-Recording/dp/B004FHO5Y6
There are also youtube videos on how to crack them open to get at the focus knob, which they do actually have, but its inside the frame and hot glued in place because uh.. logitech.
Here's a video on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Qo10_REc6U
As for a mic, I'd assume literally anything is better than the mic on your headphones. The C270 has a built in mic which isn't great, but I have no idea how good/bad your current setup is. Might be able to lean on the webcam mic until you can afford a better mic. I absolutely hate things like Blue Yetis but in your price range you're kind of stuck with a USB mic. I'd suggest a dynamic cardioid either way, and you can search amazon for usb cardioid mics; there are a lot of them, and a lot of youtube reviews of each.

I just have to say, this is some bullshit. I looked through my Amazon history, and I've bought four Logitech webcams since 2016.
The C270 was $19.86. Currently unavailable.
The C922x Pro cost me $65.99. The cheapest used one is currently $272...
The 9000 PC was $109. It's currently available used for $153.95.
The Webcam C920 was $52.49. Someone's trying to sell it used for $194.97.
A build using all parts/pricing from Microcenter; came to $1,915.89 (but without headphones). I unfortunately don't have a suggestion for headphones as I have the same issue as you - I've never been able to wear over-the-ear headphones for more than 30 minutes without discomfort or pain, so a result have always used earbuds. I have a couple suggestions for parts/components that would save you a good amount of money if you are willing to order online (in parts explanation). Parts explanations below:
CPU: The 3600 is a great all-around CPU with 6 cores, multi-threading, and fast individual core speeds (good for gaming). With a 1440p 144hz monitor, gaming will put most of the burden on the GPU, so this CPU is more than enough; plus can be overclocked for more performance.
CPU Cooler: AIO (240mm) as requested. The black fits with the color theme, while the pump head has aRGB, which is a nice touch. I'd mount the radiator to the front of the case, with the fans sandwiched between the radiator and case for cleaner aesthetics.
Motherboard: This is a motherboard without a lot of frills, but it has good VRM's that are beneficial for overclocking a CPU. It does have RGB headers, but if you want to add addressable RGB components down the line where you can change the color of each individual LED in a component, I'd recommend this motherboard instead - it not only has a header for both RGB and aRGB, it also has a connector specific to Corsair components that lets it control the Corsair specific lighting elements without an adapter. Pricier though, of course (60% more).
Memory: 16GB of 3600Mhz low latency RAM - great for performance, also black and clean looking.
Storage: I included a 500GB m.2 SSD (Inland brand - Microcenter's in-house - but it received great reviews online and uses great components) and a 1TB HDD. Storage drives on the case are all hidden under the PSU shroud or on the back of the case (behind the motherboard), so completely out of site and do not ruin visual aesthetics.
Video Card: The 2080 Super is a great card - just one step down from the most powerful consumer GPU, the 2080 ti. The 2080 Super is more than capable of playing games at 1440p 144h (or close to 144hz, depending on the game and if quality settings are super high).
Case: The NZXT H510 case is very clean, minimalist looking case with nice white and black contrast. Thermals are ok, but won't affect performance.
Power Supply: This is a quality/high tier PSU, and 650w is good for this system. If you expect to do a lot of upgrades in the future, you could go to the 750w version, but I don't think it's necessary.
Monitor: This is a nice 27" 1440p 144hz IPS monitor - great for gaming; and with an IPS panel, great for colors and viewing angle. If you are willing to order online, this monitor is about $100 cheaper on Newegg, has basically the same specs (27" 1440p 144hz IPS, a little slower response time) and received good reviews.
Webcam: This webcam seemed pretty good and includes a built-in microphone. There is a less expensive version on Amazon that seems to have the same functions (built-in microphone), and an option to bundle with a headset with microphone for less money.
Earbuds: This isn't in the list, but if your willing to use earbuds instead of headphones, I have this Sony model that has pretty good sound, works well for gaming, and has a lot of great reviews (part of the reason I bought them).

Np, here's the upgrades I've done. No need to do the filament guide or PTFE boden upgrade if you are going to convert to direct drive though. OH! and I forgot you NEED to upgrade the sotck f/w to get thermal runaway protections!!! Here's all the upgrades I've done so far. Pretty happy with all of them except I might have gone with the piezo Orion instead of the BLTouch if I'd only known...

This was shot on the Logitech C270 webcam.
If you bust it out of it's case, you'll find there is a focusing ring buried inside. I designed this quick and dirty case to hold the PCB onto an existing stand. The camera is excellent can can focus manually once you give that focus ring a firm twist and break the glue.
If you are interested in doing this, checkout Teaching Tech's great tutorial. Michael Laws does an impeccable job in walking through it.
This is shot with a Logitech C270 webcam than I broke out of its housing. Hidden inside is a focus ring that you can break free with a firm twist.
I made a very basic case to hold the board. I was going to make a nice cover for it, but I found the board runs warm so left it open to vent the heat. There are plenty of nicer cases on Thingiverse, this is my purely utilitarian attempt.
I have this one. Used once and has been sitting in storage for like years.
I use the Logitech c270 and it does great, $22 on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-960-000694-Widescreen-designed-Recording/dp/B004FHO5Y6/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1528522497&sr=8-2&keywords=c270 We spend more on cards! :)
i use a logitech c270 on my raspberry pi 3 running octoprint. it's plug and play. there's a good list on github of cameras that work. you can potentially find something used cheaper, but for $20 i just bought the logitech.
It's easily available via Printoid app on my android phone (or via the web browser interface) when i'm in the house. i then installed openVPN on my Pi so i can VPN in from my phone and easily check on it when i'm gone.
As an added plus, openVPN also connects me to everything else on the home LAN when i'm gone, so i can check in on any other services/devices i want.
An old logitech () I got to skype with my bro a couple years back. While using OBS to connect to you tube. https://obsproject.com/
This is a popular one, already has a long cable and a case, and tons of printer mounts made for it.
Just a really cheap logitech one, let me find it
Hey, Matt! I use a Logitech C270. It costs a little more, but it works for me: http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Webcam-Widescreen-Calling-Recording/dp/B004FHO5Y6
I'll probably upgrade to the C920 soon, but the Logitech C270 is what I've used for years and it's never failed me. Pretty ok quality and good settings adjustment so even my garbage green screen works beautifully. If you're on a tight budget, this is a great cam.
