Logitech StreamCam

Bought this camera for doing interviews, I have one built into a MacBook but I tend to have that to the side and a larger screen central on my desk. The picture quality on this cameras great, I’d say it’s definitely crisper than the built in one. If you download Logitechs options app you get more control over it, you can control the fps and and the aspect ratio. It functions really well in low light which is a bonus as my office is north facing and doesn’t get too much direct sunlight. It’s plug and play which makes it really easy to use. The sound quality is also decent. All in all a good piece of kit and well worth it for the money.

Having resided to the fact that my laptop's built-in camera was akin to peering through a colander, I finally bit the bullet and bought a proper webcam. You know, the thing that you used to plug into your computer during the early-2000s, when the 'digital home' was a cheesy expression for 'Jump on the USB peripheral bandwagon'. I guess back then we had an excuse seeing as cameras were generally 1.2 megapixel, or more frequently, absent altogether. But in these times of remote working, I've learned that making an impression online is and should be no different to physically meeting people in person. That is, aside from wearing shorts below a shirt and blazer. Now this isn't to say that I felt alone in my grainy, dull video world. Many of the people that I've been required to Zoom have used equally bad and unflatteringly positioned laptop-lid cameras to present important information. But this only makes the case creating a strong impression even greater. I settled on the Logitech StreamCam seeing as the ever-popular C920/22 are now long in the tooth, and honestly not that much better than a laptop's camera for the price you're paying. The StreamCam is a little on the pricey side, but absolutely worth every penny. For starters, it can be positioned in a wide array of ways. The C920/22 also have this 'clamp' ability, but it's worth mentioning as not all manufacturers provide this design. A tripod mount is also included. The device itself is a decent size and feels superb quality. It makes you realise why the sub-1cm depth cameras in our laptops are so poor, almost reassuringly so. I like the white colour and grey fabric microphone cover; they look clean and modern. I'm also very pleased that it features a USB-C connector. It'll take quite a few years before this interface becomes a standard, but the more manufacturers that jump on-board the better - it's just very convenient when new computers offer these ports and you can actually use them. But what it really all comes down to is performance, and the StreamCam doesn't disappoint at all. The video quality is miles ahead of the C920/22 and competing products, to a point where YouTube videos drawing comparisons really don't do the StreamCam justice. In perfect lighting it is crystal clear with incredible exposure, lacking any blown highlights or noisy dark areas; in less-than-ideal lighting it continues to outperform built-in cameras, and anything less results in an image that will more than do the trick. It works best with even artificial lighting. The microphone is an interesting one. Having used the StreamCam on a few devices, I will say that it performs better than most, but when it came to the MacBook Pro, callers believed that the latter's microphone was actually better than the StreamCam's during a direct comparison, with it being more tinny. So your mileage may vary. There's an argument to be made that, in good lighting, this device may actually be overkill for video calls. I would disagree on the grounds that the StreamCam is incredibly versatile, and is going to look good in a wide variety of environments, whereas I honestly wouldn't take a gamble with other cameras. Give it a go!

I've been researching webcams for a long time now, in desperate need to upgrade my C270 which I've had for more than 10 years. My use is solely for online video meetings. No streaming or YouTube, plain simple conference video streaming. Anyway with most reputable brand webcams being out of stock, choice was rather limited. I ended up buying the streamcam for four reasons: - It was available - Its price had not been inflated due to current shortages - The Logitech Brio, which I was really after, was available but for silly money - The streamcam's design PROS - Design: it's a lovely webcam to have on your desk or monitor. Whilst rather large, it feels solidly constructed and fits well in a modern environment. I really didn't want a black boring webcam like most are designed these days. I wanted something which stood out, this one does. - Field of view: I was a little worried the field of view wouldn't be wide enough, but actually it's perfect for meetings, my head isn't cropped like it was on the C270, I fill in about a 1/3 of the image and have a nice living room background. - A serious upgrade on my C270. But then again, the C270 is so limited by today's standards, any new webcam was going to be great. - Microphone: clear voice, but do make sure you use "Dual Mono" and not "Stereo" for meetings. In stereo, the audio recording is incredibly low. In dual mono, the voice is amplified and you can be heard. CONS - Skype: I bought this camera for Skype meetings, and Skype just cannot give me an image better than 480p. You read that correctly. I appreciate it's not Logitech's fault here, but 480p is simply appalling. I've tried everything, read up online solutions, even submitted a ticket to Microsoft, Skype just won't handle this camera with my setup. It could be my graphics card which is a little old, a Nvidia 660GT, but Skype only uses 3% of its GPU when running, so no excuse. I tried Skype on a three year old laptop, same problem. I then tried Skype online via Edge browser, and I get a clear 720p image there. I get a clear 720p image with Zoom, and 720p with Google meet. So I feel defeated by Skype, and this was an important reason for my purchase. - 1080p quality: seriously questionable. The increase in detail between 720p and 1080p is so minor, it's difficult to notice. I even feel Logitech is simply applying some sharpening to a 720p feed. I've attached a series of pictures to demonstrate this. Compare the 100% crop of the streamcam vs. a 1080p video using my Huawei Mate 20 Pro phone. Sure, the Huawei was 5x more expensive and was released around the same time as this camera, but the Huawei has 4 cameras, using Leica glass, can take 4K videos, has loudspeakers, screen, GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth, NFC, Infrared, battery, wireless charging, GPU, CPU, 128Gb memory... by this very standard, the Logitech is incredibly overpriced. - 1080p meetings: currently, few communication tools provide 1080p meetings. If you have a professional subscription to Zoom, you can get 1080p. Otherwise, almost everyone limits their feeds to 720p. Again, a bit of a let down. Whilst 1080p means future proofing, there's no service right now you'll find to take advantage of the highest resolution. SUMMARY It's an "OK" camera, overpriced for its performance, but given the current market, I probably would recommend it.

Bought this to replace my Razer Kiyo which decided to die without warning. The camera does a great job in low light and bright conditions. I've noticed an improvement over the Kiyo when it comes to green screen capture when using blurred or background images on teams calls. I'm using this predominantly for work calls but I also run a podcast so its definitely a welcome upgrade for me. Unlike the kioyo I'm finding the mount point clip is better sitting on top of my monitor as well. Very satisfied with the purchase.

Good for starting out and short term. Highlights colors really well and easy to set up. I would recommend a ring light to bost potential.

Picked up the Logitech StreamCam for streaming and it’s spot on. Full 1080p at 60fps makes video really smooth, and the auto-focus keeps you sharp even if you move around. Works perfectly with YouTube and Twitch, and setup is dead simple. Only minor gripe is the built-in mic isn’t amazing, so you’ll probably want a separate microphone for proper sound. Otherwise, brilliant for live streaming or video calls – clear picture, easy to use, and reliable.

Se sei un content creator o un appassionato di streaming, la Logitech StreamCam è sicuramente una scelta che ti soddisferà al 100%.

Så länge du bara ska köra videosamtal över tjänster som Zoom, Teams, Google osv så är StreamCam mer än fullgod. Ska du däremot spela in vlog i 1080p eller högre så bör du välja något annat.

とても画質がいいとか、AFがいいとかはないのですが、なんだかんだ安定して使えます。

Brio ve streamcam arasında çok araştırma yaptım. Brio’nun illa farkı var ancak kullandığımdan söylüyorum fps anlamında çok başarılı, gece karanlıkta inanılmaz güzel bi performans gösteriyor. Kamerayı yan çevirdiğimizde dönme özelliğinin olması da ayrıca güzel özelliklerinden.

Goede camera voor streamen of andere dingen, beter als de normale logitech camera, veel support van logitech met speciale features zoals inzoomen, belichting, filters, als je de camera zachtjes wegschuift dan volgt de camera je hoofd dus ook heel fijn, als je een bewijs wilt Twitch : SweechyFN
