Get rid of this crap by registering your own SA Forums Account and joining roughly 150,000 Goons, for the one-time price of $9.95! We charge money because it costs us money per month for bills, and since we don't believe in showing ads to our users, we try to make the money back through forum registrations.

Except surely even using something like a buff over your mouth is going to help reduce things to an extent. Is it as good as an N95? Of course not. Would it do something? Well it'd catch some of your exhalations so... probably?

The argument I've heard made is that you quite quickly make anything covering your mouth & nose wet with the condensation/droplets from your breath, which you then essentially force out through the gaps in the material as you exhale anyway...

Has that been shown to be nonsense at all?

Does anyone know a good microphone and webcam to have for chatting to folk?

I couldn't find a webcam for love nor money at the beginning of lockdown so I ended up trying out Droidcam (https://www.dev47apps.com/) with an old Android phone and it's been really good. I've connected it via USB debugging mode though so I can't vouch for it's quality over Wifi.
