Good quality and strong tech support
Very kind and professional support, prompt response to my questions. I am very happy with the image and video quality of the camera as well.

works with lightburn
bought this for use on a laser and it was easy to setup (you'll just have to fabricate a way to mount it)

Works great for Lightburn
The camera works really good for Lightbourn. I did have to set it as a normal lens, not fish, Island lens. I also had to cover the honeycomb with white posterboard so that the algorithm would not be thrown off by my dirty honeycomb. Once the honeycomb was covered with the white posterboard calibration was, super easy.

Not good for LightBurn
First of all, the resolution is not 8MP.Second, if you want to use it for LightBurn you need to adjust and calibrate your camera constantly because it lost the right location of objects in your laser cutting machine.If you want to use this as a webcam or other application it may be fine.

Nice camera. NOT FOR USE WITH LIGHTBURN though.
I purchased this camera as opposed to one promoted by Lightburn because of the reviews about the cameras getting very hot. I printed a housing for it and mounted it on my laser enclosure. Sadly the camera needs to be refocused constantly, making it impossible to focus and align it in Lightburn. No matter what I do the alignment is still off. Yes, this is a nice camera and will likely work great for certain applications but NOT for Lightburn.

Great little camera for home projects
This is a nice little bare-bones USB camera. It works well on RPI as well as normal computers, and the picture is decent for it's size.

Great for 3D Printer!
I'm using this on a 300mm cube-style 3D printer and it's great! The camera is very wide-angle and it easily captures the entire bed surface even though it's only a foot or so from it. The resolution is great, it adapts to low-light better than most webcams, and focus has not been a problem.It was completely plug-and-play to a Raspberry Pi Zero 2w (using an OTG adapter and hub) and fluidd recognized it with no configuration needed. It's a simple lens-and-modules-on-a-PCB design so you'll want to print or buy some sort of holder for it.Overall a great camera for this purpose!
