Logitech C920 or C930. I use them both. C920 is a little less expensive.

I have a Logitech C920 and it has an echo with Facetime. I have tried everything, but it does not work properly. It works with Skype, but not Facetime. I cannot return it and Logitech does not know what to do to fix it. It seems there is no echo cancelling in this camera. Do not buy if you are using it with FaceTime.

I've used a 920 with FaceTime for years and just recently went with the Logitech BRIO 4K webcam.
I don't install any of Logitechs drivers/install packs simply because I have consistently had issues with devices after installing any Logitech software. Mice, Keyboards not as much but I have experienced it, several webcams.

When I buy them now it is just plug in and use.

Logitechs are basically plug & play on Macs.

Logitech C920 does not have any echo cancelling when used with a Mac Mini. My friend and I tried every option. Logitech even admitted this to me on the phone. On the mac mini the camera interferes with any speaker you have. The other way around it is to wear headphones and a microphone. I have switched to Skype and everything works perfectly without headphones and a microphone.

Huddly GO is a great option if you have the money & want something that looks better and is more futuristic than Logitech.

If you want to go retro, Apple iSight (plus FW 400 to 800, TB to FW and TB3 to TB adapters).
Probably still the best looking standalone webcam ever made. Surprisingly light yet premium build.
