4.0 out of 5 stars Does the thing

2026-01-30    -Aither

The good - Does the thing. “Scans” cards/ takes a pictureThe bad - Focuses all weird sometimes, sometimes super blurry, and sometimes freezes. Also the top joint where the camera joins is a little floppy. Unable to tighten it up enough to snug.

5.0 out of 5 stars MIc eliminates background noise, Perfect for teaching live online, or meetings. Easy to use! Free ap

I have used IPEVO cameras since Covid hit, to teach online. The V4k PRO is the most compact and easy to set up camera and has all the features you need for teaching online, especially in a noisy room.If you do not mind plugging it in to your computer, this model is perfect. It is small, compact, takes "in focus " shots from 10 feet away easily when I am standing up at an easel and takes close up shots on the desk when I am demonstrating, or drawing up close. It is heavy enough to NOT to get vibration, but light enough to clip on a ladder, which I use for my home studio. And it is cheaper and better than the previous models. It works well for anyone without tech experience, for instance church services, and broadcasts live on zoom, and anyone can use it easily without training. It even has a very good light which shines on your writing, drawing, science experiment, or whatever you are trying to show or sell.Ipevo works seemlessly. Download and use the free Visualizer Ap on IPEVO website. The AP is very easy to figure out, and is constantly being upgraded to be user friendly; it works perfectly with Zoom. I can run the camera, zoom in and out, focus, and adjust all kinds of settings in the AP while I am teaching live. This is a solid product by a reputable, honorable company which believes in making innovative products teachers can buy themselves.If you are a tutor, or have meetings, you can do demonstrations with this without tech training. If you have to carry the camera, this one folds down easily too. (If you need a wi fi camera for walking around a wi fi classroom, get the big green VZX Ipevo,,,,but it is alot more expensive. The wi fi Ipevo is the green one in the photo on the desk) Ipevo also has a cheaper model without the fancy mic, that goes in your backpack, but the mic is a HUGE improvement. The v4Kpro one is perfect for most everyone and the camera and mic are fantastic.My first IPEVO camera saved my career when COVID hit, and I had to switch to online teaching overnight. I am loyal to this brand because they work. Frequently, the Visualizer month get's better and keeps up with other broadcasting, and also allows you to take photos from books, or make movies. The company is always ahead of the pack. My greatest thanks to IPEVO for creatively and unselfishly creating tools that teachers can afford to buy, and their unrelenting commitment to those of us that are 'boots on the ground' in education.

Lo uso para clases de bordado, donde el detalle fino es muy importante, no pierde el enfoque aunque esté muy cerca, excelente equipo y con su luz integrada es fabuloso

Gute Dokumentenkamera mit brauchbarer Beleuchtung

2026-01-11    -Stephan M.

Die Dokumentenkamera ist für den Preis gut, das Mikrofon recht für die Verständigung aus und der Lichtkegel hat ein konzentrisches Bild und wird dunkler zu den Rändern. Aber dafür ist sie kompakt und lässt sich flach mit dem Klettband zusammenlegen. Einzig das fest verlötete Kabel könnte ein Problem werden, da sollte man etwas mit aufpassen. Die Kabelführung am Gelenk erleichtert die Sache, aber das Kabel sitzt dann auch sehr stramm und man muss etwas Spiel lassen, sofern man die Kamera während der Benutzung bewegen will. Die Bildqualität ist zu diesem Preis eher brauchbar, das Sichtfeld eher etwas klein. Man kann sie zwar in Richtung Senkrechte bringen, dann allerdings sieht man den Standfuß. Aber Kompromisse sind bei Preis und Kompaktheit irgendwie klar und man muss schon wissen wie man sie benutzt. Aber für DIN A4 passt das Sichtfeld, nicht aber für A3, was aber auch so nicht beworben wird. Alles in Allem eine gute Wahl. Wer das Licht nicht braucht, kann etwas sparen und besser eine Schreibtischlampe nutzen.

3.0 out of 5 stars Does the Job, But Has Limitations

2026-01-03    -Jack

Gets you decent overhead shots for document scanning and basic product work. The 4K resolution is solid and the AI mic works fine for calls. Setup is simple..plug and play. Where it falls short: the arm isn't as stable as I'd like when positioning at certain angles, and low-light performance isn't great. Fine for well-lit setups and occasional use, but if you're doing this daily or need precise positioning, you might want something more robust. It works, just manage your expectations.

This thing is great for counsellors/therapists.

I have been using my 2-in-1 laptop connected to a second monitor for my virtual therapy office setup for the entirety of the Covid-19 pandemic. It worked, but writing on a screen was awkward.Somebody recommended I try one of these and it has been AMAZING. I just use screen sharing within a session, open the IPEVO app on my laptop monitor, and then I can draw away on paper or my writing tablet while the client follows along. It has been a GREAT change. Wish I'd discovered this 2 years ago.Camera is of high quality construction and is clear enough that clients can make out my writing without issue. Sometimes it gets weird trying to focus (my hand vs. what I'm writing) but it's not a big issue as it always refocuses on the text.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Well Designed

2026-02-20    -Richard Rodewald

This sure beats the built-in webcams on my laptop and desktop computers (high-resolution, no barrel distortion, digital zoom, auto-focus, built-in microphone with AI noise-reduction, built-in light for document imaging and fill lighting when used as a webcam, sturdy adjustable stand, portable, great multi-platform apps). This is not just for document imaging and educational presentations. It is so well designed. The company is even environmentally responsible. The unit comes bare in a padded, portable storage box with a carrying handle. There is not even any plastic wrap or any literature to throw away. All you need to know is printed on the outside of the box. Great after-purchase, personalized customer support. Two thumbs up.
