A little bit of research suggests that most will probably work if they
claim to work with a 'PC' as that implies they use UVC to communicate
with a computer and there's UVC support in Debian (guvcview et al.)
Can anyone confirm that I have this right? Does anyone here actually
use one of these cameras with Debian? Actual recommendations of
specific suppliers/cameras would be very welcome, eBay, Amazon,
AliExpress, I'm not fussy! :-)
I've assumed with these things if it says "works with Windows and
Macintosh" and not "needs Windows", it should probably work with Linux.
