HoverCam Solo Spark II Reviews

Excellent camera for archives

By Althea

I purchased this hovercam document camera to use while doing archival research. It's an excellent machine anf B&H's pricing and shipping are both stellar. I'm excited to try its functionality for web conferencing/teaching as well. The camera strikes a balance between crisp images and speedy, easy capture using a computer-based software. The stability and quality really make this worth it. The hovercam software scans directly to a folder of one's choice on the computer and creates clear, easy to use images. The camera only requires an (included in box) USB cord. Those whose computers have only USB C ports will need a dongle but there's no need to purchase a separate cord. These cameras feel sturdy and well made, without a lot of moving parts that can break. That said, the manual buttons on the device for focus and other adjustment are welcome in this age of everything being software/cloud dependent. Basically, I think you get what you pay for and the stability/quality of this device beat a wavery tripod phone in my book.

Simple installation

After purchasing the HoverCam Solo Spark two I was immediately impressed. It was made of good quality material and the interface was easy to understand and simple to use. Once I plugged in the Hovercam I was able to find the application online and begin using the machine within minutes. Definitely would recommend this to a teacher.

What would be the easiest way to hook one of these up to a TV?
Asked by: Paul
The HoverCam Solo Spark II Document Camera (BH # HOHCSSII) will connect easily via the included USB cable to a computer, which would then be connected back to the TV via an HDMI cable.
