I am an educator and will be using Microsoft Teams with students.  Is there a way to use a second external camera and share that image with the people in your meeting at the same time as the primary camera on my laptop?

    Yes and on a Mac you can deploy the Photobooth camera and size it to sit beside the teams screen.

    When sharing, use the share desktop option so participants will be able to see the PowerPoint/app at the same time as the camera.

    It has been the best work around I’ve been able to find. Hope it helps.

    Hello Brandon, I fully agree with your comment :-)  Microsoft, as always, is absolutely not professional!

    That's great. I had not heard of ManyCam, and in essence this is exactly what I need. Of course I wish they had a free version...but this appears to solve my problem. Thanks for pointing it out.
