So...my webcam sucks. I need to make money camming before I can get a new one, though
Is it possible to make money with a lower quality camera? I just need to make about $100 for a really good one...I'm on MGF and MFC - I'm a new girl on MFC so I feel I'll get that New Girl energy but I worry that they won't like the low quality - any suggestions?

if you're camming on mgf it totally is. I had trouble getting my nice cam to connect on multiple occasions to the site and I still sell well on there when I'm on.

You work with what you have and scale up.
It is very possible to have a horrible camera and amazing lighting and come out great on your cam feed.

That sucks too cause the Logitech 920c was just on sale on Amazon for 50USD for one day only.

'Tis true!!
My first 3 weeks I honestly just had no idea what I was doing. I had a $10 camera and 2 shop lights that cost $10 each from Home Depot. I made money with my personality :-) Now I am waaaayyyy tooooo picky

I started out just using my built in webcam on a very shitty old PC. Made money and invested it back into camming. You'll be fine.

I started out on MFC with a shitty laptop with an even shittier built in webcam. I did well my first week with the "new girl" tag and no one complained about the quality of my cam. As soon as I got paid I got a C920 and then the next pay period some decent lighting. Just upgrade one thing at a time when you can afford the investment. You'll be more than fine! :)

I think everyone starts out with shitty. Then you upgrade! Thats kind of the key idea to long term cam success. Invest in your business over time as you can afford to. =)

I'm still new to camming ( six months) and I started with a 8 year old laptop that overheated, a C525 shitty cam and my room lights. I still made bank. I now have a I5 laptop and a C920 all paid for by camming. 70% guys fall on love with your personality not your pixels.

Bright lighting makes a bad cam look a lot better. Boosting the contrast can help. And you can compensate by moving the cam closer. If it's further away, the low resolution is more apparent when it pixelizes your face. Some custies are into close up POV angles so that can work.

Logitech C920, I haven't had any issues with it so far.

Logitech c920 is the most recommended webcam of all the cam sites and it has a very good price. It's also my webcam and I am very satisfied. It was around 90euros

I am using a crappy built in webcam and am still making good moolah each week. I got good lighting though and this built in cam is a lot better than on other laptops I've had. Good lighting is important though - I just use overhead lights in my room and a desk lamp.

Re: So...my webcam sucks. I need to make money camming before I can get a new one, th
[SIZE=4][FONT=Book Antiqua]I agree with What others have said about using what you have until you can upgrade.
I started camming 6 yrs ago, with a netbook, the built-in webcam, windows xp, and shitty internet that disconnected every few minutes.
I made sure my lightning was good, and I always made bank.
Luckily I eventually found this forum, so I found out what to buy. Even though I got a new i7 laptop,better net, and webcam, most guys didn't even notice.
I remember going back to my xp netbook with the built in occasionally, and STILL making bank.
Its your personality in the long run that will get you the custies that you need.

I agree with the work with what you have, then work your way up somewhat buttttt even if u averaged an extra few bucks an hour with a better one obviously you'd want that like today so the money can compound.
Do you have anything you can sell on craigslist? Old books? College books? Furniture that isn't necessary? Whatever. Clothes you don't need?
A c920 is $70 on amazon or like $80 at walmart target etc so if u can find $70 of stuff it might be worth it to sell and get the new camera... Then sell the old camera.
