4KVC00, interesting model worth to have a closer look at. And it 
seemingly is available or at least prices in Europe for €71.99
https://www.avaccess.com/eu/products/4kvc00/

If it has better cost/performance than other similar UVC v4L2 models, I 
don't know.
Looking at its tech specs, it has color precision
Deep Color     4K at 60Hz: Up to 8bit

Not really fair comparable with the "not so unexpensive" standalone SSD 
recorder (BMD Hyperdeck Shuttle 2
https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/841023-REG/Blackmagic_Design_HYPERD_PT2_HyperDeck_Shuttle_2_SSD.html/specs
Color Precision    10-bit
Video Sampling    4:2:2

And not to forget the 8-Bit vs 10-Bit Video Color Explained
