Recording my document camera without recording my students

Hello Trisha,

It's great that you're trying to serve different student's needs while respecting everyone's privacy.  I had a math teacher in high school who couldn't stand for long periods of time, and so would just sit up front and write the lesson on blank pieces of camera with a document camera projecting them, and the camera could take pictures which he would then upload.  It was a great way to make the days lessons accessible.  Perhaps your document camera has its own recording capabilities?  If not,  another option would be for you to use another computer (if you have one) to join the meeting and pin the document camera, and that computer would be responsible for recording just the document cam.

Dear Trisha,

For your difficulty,  I think the best way to deal with it is by a document camera, integrating with the recording and displaying in real-time.  HDMI/USB/VGA/wifi document cameras are all available for you. If you wanna the budget price to achieve your needs, V500 doc camera will be your best choice. While, if you wanna the best clarity to show the tiniest,  the 4-in-1 solution document camera with 12 optical zoom will be nice. For more info, you can visit here
