It does its job well and is easy to use
We're doing more remote conferencing now and wanted something that could be easily detached when not needed for security/privacy reasons. This little camera does the job and does not botch the color / lighting. The audio works well.
Note that the Ligitech software does keep a boot and usage log with minimal information in your user account temp directory.
Recommended for simple web A/V use!

Decent Basic Web Cam
It's been increasingly obvious to me that I was going to have to get a webcam for job search and networking purposes. The next problem was finding something with halfway decent ratings that didn't cost a lot. The C270 fits the bill. Despite the pictorial instructions enclosed with the camera, it did not come with a software CD. But I got the latest stuff from the Logitech website, which was probably better, anyway. It still took playing around with the camera and microphone settings on my computer to get it to work, but now it does. I have no complaints about this camera. Unfortunately, when I used it for the first time in a Zoom meeting, it became apparent just how slow the wifi is where I live! I would recommend a broadband connection. 15 Mbps wasn't enough.
Perfect - does everything I wanted it to do!
Small, simple to set up.
Logitech C270 Webcam
Camera works great. Delivery was quick. No complaints at all. Would buy from SparkFun again.
Exactly as advertised
I purchased two of these to monitor my 3d printers. They worked out of the box without issue. The focus can be adjusted by popping-off the face cover, and then removing three philips-head screws and the top of the frame. There's a twist mechanism on the camera itself.
Ez to use, jetson-compatible camera
Easy to use, disassemble, and reassemble. 4 stars instead of 5 because of no straitforward mounting options, but I found heavy-duty double sided tape works well for mounting.
