I actually did run my Fuji camera as a webcam for a Q&A at work. 35mm f/1.4 with a ring light left me looking downright pretty if I do say so myself.

I use my Fuji x-t3 with a viltrox 23mm f1.4 regularly as a webcam at work. During the first week in all the meetings there was always someone asking about how did I get that 'cinematic' look.

That's quite a difference, indeed.

The real limitation: Fuji’s software for Mac is not amazing. It works, but it’s not entirely reliable.
