Lights, camera, (microphone), action! I am currently using the FIFINE set above but for different microphone / headset / mixer options I have used all of the below as well!
SO much better than the webcam on my PC. It can record in HD and is plug and play. Super easy to mount on your laptop. A good webcam is a must for streaming.
