Recommendations for a client-friendly non-PTZ webcam that stores settings for zoom, exposure, et cetera, onboard to non-volatile memory? Only found Elgato Facecam 4K so far.

44:48Done. Next question. This question comes in from Jeff Cohen in Miami Beach, Florida. Recommendations for a client-friendly non-PTZ webcam that stores settings for Zoom, exposure, et cetera, on board to non-volatile memory? memory. Only found Elgato facecam 4K so far. So essentially if you have an Elgato, in this case the Elgato 4K camera, you plug it into a computer that has the Elgato software and you can change all the things. I can change

45:20the exposure, I can change the crop and the framing within my, you know, to get that 4K down to a 1080 frame and then when it plugs into the next computer that doesn't have the Elgato software, it stays put, is what I understand the goal to be. Very similar to like how on an MV7 Plus, if you have the Motive Mix app, you noodle with all the settings on your machine,

45:40and then when you give it to a client, it just shows up and does whatever it used to do. Not sure if there's any other models that do that, but I was hoping to at least restate the question that I understand it. I'm not seeing anything in the chat. I am, however, curious, what is the aversion to a PTZ? Because I used to think that that would be, that would make people

46:13nervous, that weren't, that were non-technical people that had this little camera that started to move around. I've given a couple of PDZ cameras to other users who are non-tech, to other people who are non-technical users, and they really, really like them. The only thing that you really, really, really need to just not have be a default thing is the gesture control. I had an Insta360

46:36link or an OBSBOT camera go rogue at a town hall and try to follow an executive as they were were walking out of their office to go to the bathroom, and I got a bad half hour about it. Fenwick? I agree. That would be a great feature, Jeff Cohen. I don't know about it, but I do know this. Remember that you can request camera control with many of the PTZs,

47:07and I think you can with that one, where through Zoom you can pan and tilt the guy. Okay, so just remember that. The color and all that, that's another problem. Sabato? I don't have a good solution, at least I think in terms of what you're looking for. But if you want to spend a little bit more money, get a little bit higher quality,

47:34get an old mirrorless camera, like a Sony 6000, set everything in, take some hot glue, glue all the settings so nobody can touch any buttons, and then get just an HDMI UBC adapter. And it's set, it's done, there's nothing they can do, and it will work and look great every time. Don't let them get new lights because it'll mess everything up. Courtney?

47:59Yeah, and you know, you can store presets in the companion and you can store even some of the mixers like the new OC Go has this little PTZ control joystick on it here. And you can set up the macros when you choose your cameras up here that are controlled by this joystick. You can store the presets, the pan, tilt, zoom and focus in a preset and assign it to a macro button.

48:25and so you can save that to a file so anytime you're using that PTZ camera and it hasn't moved then you can just hit the preset it'll go to it pan tilt zoom and focus as far as color now I don't think so but it does store the PTZ characteristics in a in a file The last thing that I would recommend that you try, besides setting up your Zoom meeting,

48:55I don't know if you have to do this in an organization level or if it's at a meeting level, but have it be that when they join the meeting, they acknowledge that they're accepting foreign camera control. So that way you can do what Chris was suggesting for your reframing. But also, Also, if you are using the new Zoom ISO, it has exposure controls and color controls.
