Hello,
I've tried out faceware with the built in webcam ( which is completely pixelated and dark over all (2-5mb) ) with a good lighting I was able to get a pretty decent results and over FPS counter (of faceware) it read 30FPS.
the purchase of a new cam or action cam is on my mind, but I'm not sure if I really need something as big as c90, I mean it's much wider and it could get 60 and maybe even 90FPS, but do we really need that much fps?
Other good and cheaper alternatives like (c270 , c310, c525e ..) they have a decent quality and they never lag (constant 30 FPS ) based on most of the youtube review, however, they have a bit narrower angle, less magapixels ( 5 & 8 .. while c920 is 15 ) , and they don't seem to have "autofocus".
I still can't make my mind, am I sacrificing anything buy not investing in something as big as c920?
if you have experienced with any more budget webcams please let me know
Thanks.

Hi...
You can get good results from the cheaper webcams you mention but if you can stretch your budget the C920 is a very good webcam and gives great results with Faceware. Whichever webcam you go for lighting is key to getting the best out of facial mocap. Even expensive webcams will suffer in poor lighting.

thank you so much , yes I have studio light ready for that purpose but again when I looked around, I came to conclusion, that even the price tag on c270 or c310 is not justified at all!
I could get a very nice professional action cam with capable of recording 4k at 60FPS , 1080 at 120FPS or even 720 at 120 fps with the same price tag as the c310
If I had to choose between them, I would definitely take my shot with the action cam, and yes it has lots of great reviews on amazon and youtube, It could even do slow motion.
the only downside for me, It would take a bit over a month to arrive, which is fine because I'm working on other variants of the project right now.
