Anyone have any recommendations for a good webcam for the Pro Display XDR? I currently have the Logitech magnetic cam but was wondering if there are better options out there that people are using. Thank you!

Better in which way? What don't you like about your current webcam? And what does the display have to do with it?

Just better quality. The display has to do with the fact that the logitech has a magnetic mount so I'd want something similar that would magnetize to the display.

Why bother asking if you don't have any solutions? Just ignore my question and move on.

Sticking with Logitech myself, but their StreamCam seems like a solid choice for even better low-light performance if that's a concern for you.

For example, I use an old Nikon DSLR with a USB-C port and some Nikon software.
Or via HDMI and a capture device (Elgato, Blackmagic ATEM).
The image is brilliant and you can use shift lenses. Do not forget a good light source. (Elgato, Profoto)

If I were to buy new, I would choose a Nikon Z 6 (first version, used) and a NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.4.
No background blur with software and green screen.
