What camera should I use?

[Lord_Oscar]

I have a comp soon. I was wondering what camera I should use to record my solves.
it needs to be cheap (ideally under $50 us)
And good I guess???

I'd probably just use your phone (if you have one of course).

Just make sure the screen is faced away from you as that is against WCA regulations.

True. It seemed so random in the wca regs when I read that
But of course we can’t question the undeniable authority of our wca delegates

Like @Torrian said, grab a phone and a small camera stand preferable if you have one/can buy it and use that

If you didn’t know, it’s so that you can’t see the back of the cube in the camera

Probably just use your phone, with either a cube on the back so it doesn’t fall down or a tripod of some sort, just make sure the tripod is not ridiculously big for the table.

if you have an iphone, those are pretty good for videoing solves. you can download an app called ClipyCam so you can pause your camera, allowing you to do a solve, pause the camers, do another solve, and so on. Also, this thread should probably be on Off-Topic.
