Do I have a camera in my laptop?

I don't think I have a camera in my laptop, and I don't want to get a plug-in camera, but I want to make sure I don't have one within the laptop. I have Windows 10 Pro. I got the computer refurbished from an ebay seller. I'm not terribly unhappy with the laptop, but -- it has its drawbacks, and one of them is that I don't think there is a camera within the system that I can use. Anyone know anything about this? I have Windows 10 Pro, a Dell Latitude E5400. Thanks in advance!

    Hi Cindi

    Yes, you are correct, the Dell Latitude E5400 does not have a built-in webcam, you would need to purchase an external webcam, those are available very cheaply on the Internet these days . . .

    I have one more question, and I thank you for your patience and replies. I have Windows 10 Pro. Does this make a difference in the webcam that is compatible?

    Hi CIndi

    Basically any webcam, these days they are plug and play, purchase the webcam you can afford, so long as it is Windows 10 compatible...

    Yes, thanks. What type or model would I buy? Naturally I want something easy. Thanks again.
