Before You Buy: 5 Questions to Ask

Instead of focusing only on megapixels, ask yourself:

1. Will you teach live or record lessons?

Live classes need dependable autofocus.

Recorded lessons benefit from higher video resolution.

2. How much is your budget?

• Under ₹25,000

• ₹25,000–₹50,000

• Above ₹50,000

A quality used camera can often deliver better value than a new entry-level model.

3. Do you move while teaching?

If yes, choose a camera with face and eye tracking autofocus.

4. Will you use an external microphone?

Audio quality is just as important as video quality for online teaching.

5. How long are your classes?

For long sessions, look for AC power support or USB power delivery.
