"the Elgato Facecam MK.2 still looked worse and less natural than the Obsbot Meet 2 did straight out of the box for me (for the same price). After browsing a lot of threads too, I'm not the only one. A lot of people are disappointed with the Elgato, and when compared to the Obsbot, it almost always loses"


"insanely good picture quality for a webcam ... Its almost indistinguishable from an actual DSLR"


"I have the elgato face cam pro and I can tell you it's a beast of a camera. ... It's definitely much better quality than any other webcam on the market. ... It's nearly DSLR quality if set right."

"I use an Anker Powerconf C200, it works great in low light and does 1080p/60. ... I only use some LED lights at around 40% brightness with mood lighting and my monitor brightness is set pretty low and my camera quality is great."


"looks better in the way it processes available light. ... I get a clearer crisper view and true light tones versus the other cameras I use, where I often have to adjust the color levels."


"It comes in pretty clear even in a dark room. ... I usually only have the light from my tv that my pc is plugged into and the rgb lights on the back of it on when I have been streaming."

"The Razer software is just as bad as everyone says. ... I use a Kiyo Pro and it’s exceptionally prone to crashing, random black screens and generally being very painful to use."

"Bought a Razer Kiyo after seeing it here and a few other places as working. It does not, I just get a white screen. ... Yes, it's the standard Razer Kiyo with the ring light. I updated the firmware to the latest version and still had the same problem. ... Possible it's defective--when I would press the B button to back out of the Test USB Camera screen, no inputs would work on the controller until I unplugged the camera from the USB port (tried both the dock's USB-A and the console's USB-C, same thing). ... System recognized a camera had been plugged in, and the microphone does work under the Audio menu. Camera works fine when I plug it in to my PC. ... I don't understand either. I returned it and got the Switch 2 official camera instead, which works just fine. Best guess is a compatibility issue with the Kiyo 2.3.x firmware (was out of the box with version 2.3.0 and I updated to v2.3.2_r2 when it didn't work) and the current Switch 2 system software (20.3.0)."


"Original Logitech Brio 4k - does not work. ... Tried USB-A ports on the dock and USB-C port on the top (with a 5gbps USB-C 3.x cable). Neither is happy."


"Dang, I have the exact same model and it’s not working for me. I’m on the latest firmware (2.9 iirc) ... Interesting that you need to downgrade the firmware ... Yeah another user reported their BRIO was working on version 1 firmware. Took me some time to find a copy of version 1 firmware and hoping we can see a later version of v1 firmware"

"The C922 maxes out at 1280x720 @ 60 FPS. ... 720/480 isn't providing the emotive fidelity I am looking to transpose onto my in-game character."


"the c922 is marketed as a 1080p webcam but it has image tearing and works best at a lower quality"


"The downside is, it’s only 30 fps so you’ll get a lot of motion blur unless you can change the shutter speed."

"I just didn't like how it fluctuated with the color and zoom so i turned it all to manuel using the configure camera settings in the OBS source"

I have [this one.](https://us.ankerwork.com/products/a3369) works great. I use it for virtual meetings and streaming from my pc. It comes in pretty clear even in a dark room. I usually only have the light from my tv that my pc is plugged into and the rgb lights on the back of it on when I have been streaming.

I use an Anker Powerconf C200, it works great in low light and does 1080p/60. I only use some LED lights at around 40% brightness with mood lighting and my monitor brightness is set pretty low and my camera quality is great. I have a Logitech Litra Glow key light as well, but I rarely ever use it unless I'm really trying to light something up. Some of the Logitech cameras work fairly well in lower light too, like the C920, C720, and anything in the Brio line.

i used to run 3 logitech c920 webcams (face, overhead and 3d printer view) but now i'm running dual anker c200 webcams on obs. here's an example of the stream quality with some diffused lighting. the ONLY reason i switched to the anker webcams is because for some reason, my computer just stopped being able to detect the webcams. it wasn't a webcam issue since they worked on other computers, so it was software-related. the anker webcams turned out to be great so i'm extremely satisfied with those over the logitech, just a little pricier ($20-30 extra for brand new over the cost of the c920 used).

I had a similar issue but was using a cheap emeet camera I recently bought a Anker PowerConf c200 2k, off Amazon for $65CAD and liked it enough to buy a second one lol It was easy to set up and has auto adjustments and zoom. I just didn't like how it fluctuated with the color and zoom so i turned it all to manuel using the configure camera settings in the OBS source Now it looks great nice and crisp.

Looks like they renamed the c920 but still an amazing webcam, I still use it as a backup since mine is over 10 years old at this point. However, if you want better quality (still need some decent lighting) I suggest the [Anker Conf C200](https://www.newegg.com/anker-a3369011-powerconf-c200/p/1EF-01EW-00003?item=9SIACCUHGG3545&Source=socialshare&utm_campaign=snc-copy-link-_-sr-_-9SIACCUHGG3545-_-09222025&utm_campaign=snc-copy-link-_-sr-_-product-_-09222025&utm_medium=social&utm_source=copy-link). Great 2k camera for (currently) less than $50.

Anker Powerconf C200. Good lighting controls, a directional mic, very basic zoom controls, and high resolution
