Hi,
Does anyone have a recommendation for a webcam for use with my SFF build that will work well with windows and Fedora and ideally will be USB powered, notionally USB-C but not necessarily. Looking for plug and play or at least well supported.
I use Skype mainly but it should also work with zoom.
Also whether to go for a separate mic.
Thanks
FWIW, the few Logitech cameras I’ve used have always worked with Fedora Linux. But maybe I’ve just been lucky.
Here is one that I just connected to my Fedora Linux 41 PC:

It’s working perfectly when I start Google Meet in my Chrome browser.
HTH.
