Pros:

• Clever tracking.
• Simple to use software.
• Stable and smooth gimbal movement.

Cons:

• Expensive for a 1080p webcam.
• Gesture controls sometimes take a few tries to work.
• Hand tracking can sometimes lose target when over ~1 metre from the camera.

KitGuru says: The Tiny SE is a decent 1080p webcam that could come in handy if you require tracking and move around a lot when using it.
