Title: Great camera but NOT a 4K HDMI output - only 1080p. 4K only via the USB port.
Review: Title says it all - the camera is very nice but I re-read the specs again and couldn't find anywhere it said the HDMI output was only 1080p. We wanted it for a 4K HDMI camera so we are returning it.That said, the picture quality was awesome. Lens has some small set screws meant for locking down the aperture, zoom and focus. We didn't try plugging it into a computer for USB video because we didn't want that, wanted the HDMI 4K.Power is supplied from your own USB-C power supply.So while a nice camera with a solid build quality feel, it doesn't meet our needs.

Title: Fantastic little camera
Review: We use this for a birds eye view for our D&D board game table. Resolution is fantastic and the zoom is great. Setup was just plug and play.

Title: Pro: HDMI & USB Cons: washed out picture quality/mount only one way
Review: I think it's been said in some previous reviews:Picture quality isn't the greatest. If you are using it for livestreaming of people, then they will be totally washed out. it's good for a 2nd or 3rd camera, but shouldn't be a primary. No way to fix other than cutting off the light coming in, but that's not a clean option.Mounting - the inputs on the back don't allow you to mount this to a wall, so I'm not sure why they include wall mounting hardware since that's impossible. To mount to a wall, you'll need a shelf or a way to connect this to another wall mount. This is just a note to others.HDMI is a full size on the back. Probably should have gone with a mini-hdmi and moved that with the USB-C to another location as to allow for proper wall mounting.NOTE: HDMI is 1080 and not 4K - USB is the 4k.

Title: Great 4K USB camera with 3 manual lens adjustments. Great quality video.
Review: This USB camera works great as a USB input webcam. I plugged into a laptop and used the webcam recording software and it records flawlessly. It gets 4K video and I am very impressed by the quality of the video it recorded.This camera does not auto-focus. This camera has 3 dials for adjustments and so suitable for something that is fixed. The 3 dials control zoom, focus and lighting but not sure about the full details of what each dial does since it is not covered in the manual. You can adjust it until you get a picture you like. You can screw it down so that it is accidentally changed by bumping into it.This camera recorded video well when my other webcams failed. My other webcam had problems with the lighting in my room and was producing horizontal lines going up and down. This camera had a perfect clear picture.The camera is small and does have a tripod mount hole at the bottom. The lenses come out of the camera housing quite a bit and so does offer better picture because of the bigger lenses even though the overall camera is small.The camera also has an HDMI out so you can monitor while recording. The camera kit comes with a nice flat HDMI cable that works well.Overall, great USB camera for fixed scene recording.

Title: Good image quality, nice compact size
Review: I teach motion design at a university, and needed a way to capture rehearsals and performances for animated stage designs with our Theater and Dance departments. Finding a good small webcam made sense since space is cramped in the production booths;being able to mount a camera as a witness camera made a lot of sense for our needs.I looked over the specs for the IFWater HDMI USB 4k Webcam and decided to give it a shot.There are two models available, and I picked the 2.8-12mm 4X Zoom model. There is a 5-50mm 10x model too, but we didn't need to zoom in that close.This webcam came with a tilting frame, and the metal base makes it easy to aim and direct the lens where needed. I appreciated that the focus and zoom rings can be locked down with a screw so once it's placed, it's set and forget. This needs two cables... USB-C for power and HDMI for the video signal. I've been playing around with it in my office until we have time to mount it in the theater, and I'm finding it to be a sharp image overall. Color saturation is a bit on the cooler tones, but representative of the environment. I've attached a couple screenshots I took in an indoor hallway and outdoors with the zoom scale. Image sharpness and quality is nice and being able to record in H265 means smaller file sizes.I'll take some additional pictures once we can mount this in the theater, but if you are looking for a no-frills 4K webcam for security or to monitor an area, this IFWater 4K USB Webcam is a nice item!

Title: No clearance
Review: When adding the hdmi cable the mounting bracket gets in the way. The mounting bracket is way too short.

Title: Very good but 3rd party software needed
Review: This HDMI USB Camera by IFWAETR is fantastic! The picture quality is excellent, delivering a true 4K resolution that makes everything look sharp and clear. It's a big step up from my previous webcam.The 4x optical zoom lens is another impressive feature. It allows you to get close-up shots without losing any image quality, which is perfect for live streaming or video conferencing.Here's a heads-up for anyone who might not be familiar with this type of camera: it's not quite like a standard webcam. It requires a separate program to record footage or use it for live streaming. While it worked perfectly on my Windows computer, you'll need to download additional software to take advantage of all its functionalities.Despite this minor learning curve, the overall quality and features make this a 5-star camera in my book. If you're looking for a high-resolution camera with a great zoom lens for live streaming, video calls, or capturing high-quality footage, this IFWAETR camera is an excellent option. Just be prepared to download some additional software depending on your needs.
