I am thinking of buying a Logitech C920S Pro HD or C922 webcam for the necessary video conferencing.
Is anyone using that with Zoom or perhaps with Jitsi? Do I need drivers? Any issues?
Thank you.

I’ve used those with Windows w zoom with excellent results… They don’t require any special driver’s so probably work w Linux as is
From Logitech’s page for the 922:
Works in USB Video Device Class (UVC) mode with supported applications:
macOS® 10.10 or later Chrome OS™
Android™ v 5.0 or above USB port Internet connection Visit your preferred video calling solution provider’s website for exact information on system and performance requirements.
Works with OBS (Open Broadcasting Software) – XSplit Broadcaster
I have an HD Pro C920, works great under CentOS 7 out of the box. According to my coworkers image quality and microphone are both great. I use it with jitsi and other software, no problems.
And just to cover the lower-end of the spectrum, my Logitech C270
works fine with everything I’ve tried it with (cheese, skype, zoom, etc.)
On both C7 and Ubuntu 18.04.

I have myself a Logitech, Inc. HD Pro Webcam C920 that I used on CentOS
6, 7 and now 8/Stream, for ~7years, and it still works great. Detected as normal video device, so available everywhere , also used it in google hangout/meet, bluejeans, zoom, jitsi, etc
My only issue is that sound isn’t that great, and I have video meetings multiple times a week, so I have also a usb microphone, on a desk stand, that I use for sound input : better sound quality during meetings

H,
I am running several desktop units with CentOS 7.8 with a Logitech Brio. I was able to make it work with Cheese, but not with Zoom. I just happened across a serendipitous fix when I found that installing ‘kamoso’ caused Zoom to work. The Zoom I had been using was before 7.1. Zoom just enhanced their product to 7.1, and I installed it today. Zoom has continued to work. I had to install ‘kamoso’ to get Zoom to work initially on all of the CentOS 7.8 desktop units. It works exceptionally well with the rpm that that Zoom provides for CentOS 7.
