I have a C920 bought a few years ago. Camera is very good in most situations. One problem I found is that it is prone to interference from flourescent lights which causes moving shadow bars across the image. These are just a bit distracting.
A also have a more recent Logitech C615 which was cheaper and appears to perform as well as the C920 - even down to the bars from flourescent light interfernce. Both are very good when used in different light conditions (dull to bright). I do not use the Logitech inbuilt microphones.
