I'm looking for a camera to not only showcase my tanks but one that can be fairly smooth walking around my house to show different tanks. So I need a smooth one that can color correct decently when going from house lighting to tank lighting.

I honestly know nothing about it. But webcams seem pretty cheap even the best ones.
So here is a couple I've found quickly that seem like they're really good, I just want some opinions from people with experience with webcams and tabks in general..

The round one is currently $80 and is 1080p and 60fps.
The rectangle one is currently $120 and is 4k and 30 fps.

4k sounds better... but with fish and water movements being quick, plus walking around with the thing... would I be better off with the 60fps even though it's not ultra HD?

Or maybe there is one that has both? Or maybe 60fps and 4k are both overkill? Idk. I just wanna pick the right one the first time.

Any experienced input at all would be very helpful. Thanks.

I have a Little Elf camera that is supposedly 1080p. It works great for keeping tabs on the fish, but if you're going to livestream with great quality you're probably going to be spending more than $120.
