I have a logitech camera that works great, though I'm not sure what
model it is. It was not very costly. See attached image. when I run
dmesg after plugging it in I see mention of zc0301 image processor and
control chip, pas202bcb image sensor and snd-usb-audio (for the built
in microphone).

It was advertised as a laptop or to attach to an LCD but it had a
little stand that made it work mounted on a monitor.
