Appreciate the info. I'm also on a relatively new MacBook Pro(M1 chip) paired with 2nd gen AirPods and really thought my setup was adequate for all the zooms one does these days. Your screenshots have shown me otherwise ;).

Great comparison with all the photos - there is a huge difference. What is the laptop stand that you use?

Nice setup! I use the Lumen webcam and think it performs exceptionally well for $175. https://getlumina.com/

Awesome! Made a jump to a very similar setup over here. Don't be afraid to play with your aperture to soften your background. Bokeh from real glass is a game changer over the digital filters from Zoom/Hangouts/etc.
