While not up to par with a dedicated camcorder, it provides exceptional quality for a webcam. It can manage 1080p video at 29fps while maintaining focus and light balancing.
There are plenty of adjustable controls available, from amusing effects such as filters and video masks to digital pan/tilt/zoom, auto/manual focus, and follow my face. No matter the lighting, distance, or angle, the C920 will make the most of any situation.
The mount is very adaptable to nearly every situation, whether it's standing on a desk or clipped to a monitor or laptop screen. The rear hinge allows for it to better grip curved surfaces (as opposed to having a flat grip point), and it also can tilt vertically ensuring you are centered in the frame.
There is also a standard threaded tripod attachment point, so you can stand it up with virtually any tripod.
The USB cable can't be removed - its permanently attached to the rear of the cam. This means that if something happens to the cable (pets or other accidents) you will have to buy a whole new cam instead of just a new cable.
The cable is 6ft, sufficiently long for just about any regular use, however for some situations it may not be long enough. For others, the 6ft cable will be too long, and will be left in a coil. With a replaceable cable, you could swap it out with a better fitting cable for your desk.
For a webcam under $100, the Logitech C922x has a surprising picture quality. The picture looks sharp, the colors look accurate, and all that out of the box without changing any settings.
The picture is sharp and the colors look good even in a low-light environment, for example when gaming in a dark room with just the monitor's light shining on you.

The C922x comes with background replacement software, which cuts out the background behind you. This way your webcam picture will take less space on the stream and the content will be more visible.
This webcam is capable of streaming at 60fps (frames per second). If you are streaming the game at 60 fps aswell, then the stream will look much smoother than it would with a 30 fps webcam.
The Logitech C920 dominated the streaming webcam market for years until it got retired. The C922x is basically the same wecam, with some of the issues solved. The most noticeable difference is that when the C920 suffered in frame rate and picture quality in a low-light room, then the C922x looks great and stays at a stable 30 frames per second even when the room is dark.
The webcam has a built-in mic that produces crisp and clean sound. When starting out streaming, this can help you keep the costs of the whole setup low. Of course a dedicated microphone will do a better job.
