What cameras did you add to your 3D printer? What is your favorite camera angle?

For me, the nozzle cam watching the first layer is my personal favorite (OV9281 image sensor).

What does your mount look like for that nozzle cam?

There are two generic formfactors: round/bore and square PCB/camera. Likely you will find a premade mount for your printer.

Make sure to buy a camera with adjustable focus.
