Re: Skype question: What kind of wide angle webcam to buy? I've been taking Skype lessons with Emory Lester awesome, highly recommended!!!
I use a Logitech camera c model and it works great. I clip it to the top of my computer a Mac, works with Windows too and when sitting in my chair I can see myself completely from the waist up. Has a good microphone too. Not sure if it's a wide angle lens, but it works well for Skype. Dec, am 3. Dec, am 4.

The sad truth is, Skype can afford to be picky about webcams. So, if it refuses to detect your camera, chances are your device is not among the chosen ones.
Examine this page to check whether you are the lucky owner of a Skype compatible camera. Regrettably, Skype becomes too shy every now and then. Therefore, it is important to prevent other apps from hogging the limelight as well as your webcam.
Can you see video from your webcam being displayed? If yes, your webcam has just made it up with Skype. If the issue persists, there is no need to worry — just move on to the following tip.
We recommend you to make use of the built-in Hardware and Devices Troubleshooter — this tool can help you out by spotting and fixing your webcam problems. If yes, we are pleased to share your joy. Thus, hurry up to update it. Old friends matter. So, if your newly updated Skype seems incapable of finding your webcam, consider downgrading the app to its previous version.
If Skype cannot access your webcam, you might need to reinstall the app in question. Before proceeding with this measure, make sure your chat history and personal files are backed up.
