Love it! Picture quality is amazing

I would have given it 5 stars, but the placement of the wire hooked up to the back of the cam is on the left side (should be in the center) so if the cord is at all stretched out, it pulls to that side and it’s hard to get it to stay in position. Other than that the picture quality is amazing. I would easily recommend this cam to anyone.

Camera has cover, does not turn

It didn’t come with a battery. The remote only works for zoom in/out (limited), it doesn’t turn the camera or adjust in any other way. The button, on the remote, to turn off the camera also doesn’t appear to do anything.
I would not say it is worth the significant difference in price.
I do like the camera cover which was the main noticeable strength and reason I bought it. So that’s why the 3 stars vs less.

Unsure2020, thank you for your feedback. The arrows on the remote, controls the zoom/pan/tilt with-in the lens but will not physically move the body. The digital privacy button will not turn off the camera until you close the app you are in. If you have any questions on the Webcam, please feel free to reach out and we'll be happy to assist you. Thank you and take care, j5create.

The BEST 4k livestream webcam!

I'm a photographer/Videographer and This has EVERYTHING you could POSSIBLY need in a webcam! This camera allows you to tilt.. zoom.. pan with the REMOTE. No more getting up.. walking across the room to fix the way the camera is framing you. JUST USE THE REMOTE! It's even AWESOME in dim lit rooms! My husband wanted a camera for live streaming his podcast in the dark basically with colored LED backlighting and THIS camera does that and more! Talk about CRISP, images in the dark.. this is it! I purchased this camera and waited for it to be delivered, while my husband purchased a expensive different camera (about $250 he stated) while I caught the Best Buy sale (less than $100). He swore UP and DOWN his camera would be what he needed, but when he plugged it up.. he had to download drivers.. and move back and forth to the camera for the right settings. With this camera you dont have to do that. I purposely purchased a camera for him so he wouldn't have to download drivers.. that's old school any way. Who has extra space on any device these days?? This is Plug and Play! Now.. here's the downside of it.. the sound quality is not quite what he wanted, but since he's a sound technician... he figured out a way around that problem by hooking up an external mic a different way. And it does have a SLIGHT lag, but the lag is so small.. its not really that noticeable. But he only wanted the camera for the video aspect of it anyway! HANDS down... this was the right choice for him or any one for that matter looking for a BETTER WEBCAM EXPERIENCE.

Hi Getoverit, we would like to say thank you and taking the time to leave a detailed experience on the webcam. We're happy that the webcam is a almost perfect fit due to the sound quality not being at it's best but glad you have found a work around. Again, thanks for considering our products. Have a great day and enjoy, j5create

An excellent 4K webcam. No need for newer computer

I purchased the JVCU435 thru Best Buy. It's a very good 4K webcam, with excellent low light resolution, and good dual mic's. I downloaded the software program (app) and it does all the included remote control's zoom & pan functions, as well as adjusting hue, brightness, etc. Using this webcam with the free Windows 10 "Camera" app lets you see on your screen the capabilities of this webcam. The only weakness is that the remote looks to have about a 6-foot max operating distance. Remote battery is not included. This webcam encloses all the hardware to digitize and convert for live streaming, so you don't need a "strong" computer to do the processing. It uses the latest handshake protocols that allows the 4K capture being streamed to be received at other end as a lower resolution if the bandwidth is poor, or to match the lower screen resolution...... So it just works with little or no fiddling. Of course, all this built-in computational power causes the webcam to get hot to the touch. It probably could use a fan and better ventilation..... but it works just fine.

Absolutely stunning camera. I couldn’t be happier. Great image comes with a remote control. Integrated audio. Most importantly, sliding screen to block camera lens for privacy. j5create really thought of everything. I have one for each of my computers. Highly recommended.

Bought this camera to have at my desk for ease of making quick guitar instructional videos. Super easy to connect and worked right away with Quicktime - no issues at all. I purchased a gooseneck for it separately which really helped with angles and such - didn't seem like it would sit on the top of a monitor all that securely. The zoom and tilt features work pretty good and the remote seems good too. I like how on the remote you can shut off the picture. There is also a slider to cover up the lens. Video is super clear and it seems to work well in dim to normal lighting.

Blown away by the quality of this webcam. for the price of $99 it was a great buy compared to many in its class that cost twice its price. If you're looking for a great 4k webcam then this is the one you should be eyeing to get.

I am very happy with this webcam. This thing blew me away for the price, i had no idea that I would be so satisfied being that I’m a professional streaming producer that uses pro video & music production tools designed for broadcast. I would recommend anyone contemplating on spending more on a camera for above average quality give this webcam a try and you won’t be disappointed.

Wonderful camera, who knew I was in the dark for a year! Many compliments on how clear I am and the functionality to zoom in and out is amazing. I wish I could save settings as I keep the camera in the same spot but really, its nothing but convenience. The remote helps overcome this easily. Amazing picture quality.

I do Youtube and was skeptical on the camera due to webcams claiming 1080p & 4k when compared to my Canon EOS M5 Camera, the upgrade is absolutely noticeable from my C920Pro Logitech Webcam and will not go back, I did just start using this webcam so at this time I can't attest to it's durability, but from a content creator standpoint. This is a great webcam

Very good picture quality. The Zoom in and out works (not much zoom. But, better than nothing). Focus is good enough.
Once you zoom in, panning works as this is simply electronic panning.
