Logitech - Brio 4K

I was a Senior Enterprise AE SasS and always used a pro camera. I had a Logitech Brio 4k, and now have a Logitech MX Brio Ultra HD 4K , and OBSBOT Tiny 2 Webcam 4K. Laptop cameras are generally poor quality. I also use an external microphone HyperX Quarcast 2.

I use a logitech Brio 4K, which is great. But would nevertheless recommend the Brio 500. Which performs similar but costs a lot less

I have a Logitech Brio 4k as well. It does not work via usb c or with an adapter. I have a cheap MS one that does work via USB A directly to the dock. Edit: I am on the latest firmware as well. 2.0.28

Logitech C920 is good for a start webcam. I use a Logitech Brio 4k and OBSBot Tiny. If you can find those during a good sale, they are definitely worth it. Fps shouldn't matter. People will watch you for you and the content. If you see the Elgato facecam on sale under 100 at any point that's worth it I hear.

Honestly I've used Logitech webcams like the Brio 4k and C920. I actually use an OBSBot Tiny 1st gen and it's amazing for the price. You can use hand gestures and voice commands to intelligently change settings/move the device. I'm planning to get the Tiny 2 or and Air in the future since I've been loving OBSbot. Microphone wise, I use a Shure SM7b because It was on sale when I got it. The Beacn Mix is really nice & they have Beacn Audio Mixers like the Create and Mix which are awesome devices. I've used an audio technica AT something but it was ok. Elgato has some nice ones too!

I use a Brio 4k webcam by Logitech. Works great though no matter how good the came is, without good lighting they will all look bad.

I have a Logitech Brio 4k and Logitech Litra. I tried the Logitech beam but doesn’t work with my set up well. I’m NOT a potato cam on camera person so if I camera is on, it’s worth it. So yes the Logitech equipment is mine and I don’t use what my company sent me but I also don’t use the monitors they sent and instead use my 38” ultra wide LG.

I use the Logitech brio 4k. It’s amazing!

The Logitech Brio 4K is a great option coupled with lighting. I love mine!

I use the Logitech brio 4k it’s an amazing option.

Hey everyone, I just wanted to give an update on this. Allegedly we purchased a Lenovo webcam that was Windows Hello Certified but wasn't (Classic Lenovo, I've had extremely bad luck with them) I ended up getting a BRIO Ultra HD Webcam and that works like a charm.

(Edit to put this at top - I wouldn't recommend a Brio 100 (101?) because it is fixed-focus). I've had a Logitech C920 (lowest price looks to be around $60) for several years and it's never given trouble. Also a Logitech Brio 4k ($130). I've also tried no-name webcams and ended up with something that randomly disappears in the middle of meetings (this wasn't Fedora-specific). If it was me, I would go $10 over budget and get a C920 (the diffs between C920/C920e/C920X are minor and mostly what software is bundled with it, so inconsequential). Definitely *don't* get a Brio 101 or 301, or a C270 - they are within your budget, but all three are fixed-focus. (Brio 4k is autofocus like the C920, but double the price, because of the hugher resolution) (I got my first Logitech product back in 1985 (C7 mouse) and have never had a quality problem with any of their products.)

Yet my Logi Brio 4k doesn't work... :(

I like the Logitech C920 when I was starting out. Currently have the 2017 version of the Logitech BRIO, would never recommend that due to it's image quality and settings that you can't adjust unless you want the camera to be lagging. Currently working on the Insta360 Link2C due to a recent RandomFrankP vid. Another option you can try is using a Canon camera, my buddy is using a Rebel T7 with canon's webcam software, best quality I've seen.

Do NOT get the Brio. It's laggy as soon as you take off auto exposure. Multiple people in my group of friend streamers have said this and I have too. Definitely would recommend the OBSBOT Tiny 2 Lite best bang for your buck and it's a sort of PTZ with Ai tracking. It's been an absolute dream while pairing it with Nvidia broadcast's no background tool

> will be streaming in 4K What, like to YouTube? Because you *absolutely* aren't going to be doing that on Twitch any time soon. They don't even allow enough bitrate for a proper 1080p60 stream, much less one with four times as many pixels per second. Yeah, not going to get even 4K30 for under $150 or so. Heck, you aren't even really going to get 1080p60 for that. There's the Logitech BRIO, but they're horrible basket-case shitgoblins; I have two on the shelf that I'll occasionally grab one and update its firmware and software just to see if they managed to fix it yet. So far no dice. $70 range you're looking at the gold-standard starter webcam, the Logitech c920/c922, if you can find one on sale. 1080p30 with decent image quality if your lighting setup is at least OK. *Do not* skimp on the lighting.

I have two Logitech BRIOs sitting on the shelf, because they're useless basket-case shitgoblins. They error out, overheat, glitch, disconnect, and generally are just trash. I bought two because the whitesheet made them look like the perfect webcam. They are not. They look WORSE than a c920 even in perfect lighting somehow. I'll regularly take one off the shelf and update the software and firmware to see if it's fixed yet. Still no, so far. I'd recommend one of the Elgato Facecams if you're going with a webcam. The Mk2 or Pro both are at the upper end of what a webcam is going to be capable of, and punch almost on-par with a starter grade DSLR/mirrorless.

Elgato c920 is the gold-standard starter cam. You can find them on-sale for around $50 usually. Of those three, I'd go with the Elgato. Avoid the BRIO like the basket-case shitgoblin it is (I have two sitting on the shelf, they're worthless little turdbuckets that constantly error and look like absolute crap, even compared to a c920; I bought them when they first came out as their whitesheet makes them look like the perfect cam, but THEY ARE NOT). > Btw, I do stream at 4k60 You must be streaming to YouTube, then? Because Twitch's max bitrate would make any 4K60 stream look like hot fried poop. Absolutely unwatchable. Doubling down on the Facecam Mk2 (or bump up to the Pro), it's going to give the best quality out of the three.

Brand names like the c920 are known performers. They have people who have actually used them, and deliver a known result point. The other three you have listed are no-names. The sensors may be crap; even if they technically output 1080p60, they may look like absolute hot garbage. The whitesheet spec is not the full story. What kind of optics do they use? What kind of dynamic range does the sensor provide? Is the gain amp clean, or cheap noisy trash? What kind of reliability and reproducibility do they bring to the table? Do they have a decent autofocus? How big is the actual sensor they use? --- I got fooled by the white-sheet on the Logitech Brio. Looks *amazing* on paper, the perfect camera that I'd always been hoping someone would make. I bought two, sight-unseen, when they first came out. They were (and still are) horrible basket-case shitgoblins. Sitting on my shelf, back in their boxes. Overheating, crashing, disconnecting, image corruption, and sometimes not even being recognized at all. And when they *did* work... the image quality was somehow *worse* that the c920 I'd bought them to replace. Looked like absolute fried ass. So yeah. Sometimes it's because something is known to work (reasonably well), and not just an optimized text string meant to lure people in.

My ⁠Logitech Brio 4K (model V-U0040) does not work. The Switch detect it as a camera, but it does not show up under the USB camera test and does not work in game chat.

Thank you for the instructions! I was able to successfully downgrade the firmware on my Logitech Brio 4K using Parallels on my MacBook.

I tried my Logitech Brio 4K and my Insta360 Link. Both showed up as “Camera connected” and “Now using USB Mic,” but neither shows as connected when you test them. Anyone have any ideas?

Logitech Brio 4k - just go for the gold! I did it and now I don't have to worry about lighting (as much)

I have a Logitech Brio 4K camera. Works well and is tunable with the same software as my MX mechanical keyboard and MX Master 3 mouse.

I have it too and the c920 also. Is a good webcam and very easy with her. I have also the logitech G Hub for settings like contrast, auto focus and more. Is my second webcam because i buy the logitech brio 4k.

Pretty happy with my Brio 4K... it's a bit ancient now but the image is solid with good lighting and it supports Windows Hello

I use a Logitech Brio 4K

I use the Logitech BRIO 4k. I set all settings manually. Focus, exposure, color, brightness, contrast, saturation, sharpness, white balance, backlight comp, gain, zoom and gain. I set my Blackmagic Designs Pocket Cinema 4k the same way. I can make the BMPCC match the BRIO for color and use both at the same time.

I do not recall any software installation. I installed OBS and plugged in the BRIO camera. I did the same with the Wave 3 and BMPCC/Camlink. I am aware of software installs for the Logitech cameras but I did not use any of them. I hate adding a program just for one little add on capability. One does have to deal with the fact that the camera forgets all of my manual settings each time the computer reboots. I am unwilling to install new software just to eliminate this problem.

Allow me to suggest that your lighting and camera placement are more critical to quality than which camera is in use. Additionally for your application audio quality may be more important than the video. Do not expect dollars to purchase quality unless you know how quality is measured. The more expensive camera may have features that you will not use. Also be careful of reviews that tell you which is better but does not tell you why or may compare performance after disabling one of the more expensive units flagship features. When I was looking for a 4k webcam I noticed that most of the reviews only compared performance at 1080p because that is how most people use webcams. Or they took off points because the audio on one camera was not as good as another. I found both of these problems when I was evaluating the BRIO 4k. In my application I always use 4k and I use an external microphone. I use the Logitech BRIO 4k. I have used it for 4 years. I use it in 4k mode, with all auto functions disabled.

Really the title asks it all picked up the Logitech but now I’m considering returning it for the el gato since I have a few other things from them. I know everyone says get a real mirrorless camera… but a 700+ camera isn’t in the cards right now. Thanks!

I think the lighting I have will be good, two key lights , a benQ monitor light, and I think I’m going pick up the led strip to tie it all into the streamdeck. If the facecam will work better with all the elgato stuff in stock pilling apparently I’ll make the switch over the Logitech I have now

Also a Logitech Brio user - mine's the 4K model.

Mine didnt until i downgrade firmware and it works.

If you really want one of the best webcam , get a [Logitech Brio 4k](https://s.shopee.ph/VrXrOnWA5) Ang ganda ng sensor nito, superb quality kahit sa lowlight condition.

I've used the Logitech Brio 4k for a long time. To me it has been great for a webcam. The best quality would be to use a DSLR camera and a capture card. But if you don't have a camera laying around to use, the Brio would be a good choice. I have also used the Logitech StreamCam and Elgato Facecam. The Facecam really disappointed me with its quality compared to the Brio. Streamcam would be a good choice if it was like $60.

Teams can only do 1080P/30, so the 1080P/60 or 4k/30 options on the Brio 4k won’t do anything for you there. Find reviews/videos that will show you how each one deals with light.. some really struggle with too much or not enough, but my personal experience with the 4k is it deals with low light very well.

Post was too long, had to split it. **Best Cameras** Pretty sure the best camera you can get would be some sort of high end DSLR Camera that supports a high frame-rate and can be used as a webcam. I don't have any suggestions there, but if you're looking for the best, start looking in that direction. Another really solid option is using an old cell-phone and hooking it up to your computer. The cameras on those are great, and tend to be way better than needed for a good foip experience. As for my pick... The c922 is just fine, but I'm personally planning on trying the Brio 4k, since it supports 90 fps at 720p with the fov adjustments. It can be picked up for like $60-70 on ebay used. The MX Brio or the Razer Kiyo Pro Ultra is what I would go with if I intended to play in a low light setting due to supporting 60 fps and having very large sensors. (They're a lot more expensive though.)

Logitech Brio 4k and a triple dell display using DisplayLink Dock

I just upgraded my Logitech Brio to the Insta360 Link 2. Wish I hadn’t TBH I don’t like the tracking features as much as I thought. Camera quality of both is pretty phenomenal though.

It was the Logitech Brio 4k. Want to say one of the earliest versions. The Link 2 has amazing image quality I just don’t need the AI and tracking like I thought I might.

Whatever you do: DO NOT buy the Logitech BRIO 4K! The camera is exceptional but comes with absolutely no usable software for MAC therefore is pretty much useless (totally the opposite on Windows)

They promised "Logitech Capture" for Mac and NEVER delivered...

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. Tried generic "Aukey" webcam to the USB-A ports. Works. Camera itself is kinda crappy and crushes in the blacks, but it does that in Windows.

Thanks hun. I have the Brio but mine is from a few years ago. I think it got it in like 2019 lol Unless theres the updated one that came out which is even better?

My logitech Brio 4k doesn't seem to work... I'm really disappointed. The switch 2 recognises the camera and the built-in microphone in this webcam works, but it doesn't show any picture... I don't want to invest in another camera. I use the Brio daily for work.

My Logitech brio didn’t work but I tried it mobile and not docked with a usb c cable

The 4k version that was out before they made the other models!

I think somebody else in here said that they were able to get the 1080 brio to work

I mean, the Brio 4K sucks video quality really sucks. I have one. Note that Apple is burning a lot of the 12MP on Centerstage.

We are using Logitech Brio 4k and Insta360 Link-2. With proper lighting and decent microphones, these two are performing well for us.

Yep, that's what I see as well when I connect my Brio

I like Logitech 4k Brio [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09NBWWP79?ref=ppx\_yo2ov\_dt\_b\_fed\_asin\_title](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09NBWWP79?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title)

A simple but solid setup: Logitech Brio 4K webcam, ring light behind the monitor for soft even lighting, and a neutral background (I use a bookshelf). Bonus: raise your camera to eye level for the most flattering angle!

Logitech Brio 4K does not work here when going to test camera setting in menu Is the official camera 60fps or 30?

>Logitech Brio 4K (one report of old firmware v1.0.379 working) Can confirm this does in fact work. I have a few of these cameras. Two are on the latest 2.xx firmware and don't work, but one was never updated past 1.0.379 and works perfectly. /u/kerenchandran posted a guide for downgrading the camera firmware to 1.0.412 which is also confirmed to work with Switch 2. https://old.reddit.com/r/nintendo/comments/1lflhz6/logitech_brio_4k_webcam_working_on_switch_2/

I have a Logitech Brio. I will update this post tomorrow once by S2 gets delivered and I have a chance to test it out. Update: Best Buy isn’t delivering my Switch 2 until tomorrow. Those bastards. Will update this post again, but I’m sure someone else will have tested it by then. Update 2: I've finally received my Switch but can't get my Brio 4K to work. Like someone else downthread mentioned, it will pop up a notification in the corner that a USB camera is connected, but the console doesn't actually see it. The mic seems to work though. I've only tested it in handheld mode with the webcam connected via the AC adapter USB-C cable into the top port. I will also test different combinations of docked mode, other cables, and adapters to see if that makes a difference, but I don't expect much to change. Update 3 (16 days later): This webcam will work if you downgrade back to 1.xx firmware. https://old.reddit.com/r/nintendo/comments/1lflhz6/logitech_brio_4k_webcam_working_on_switch_2/

The Brio 4K is expensive but quite good. I actually bought that one for its Windows Hello face unlock function (it has an IR cam integrated). However, I still needed to install a light to improve tracking at night, since my room isn't lit very bright. What bugs me a bit is that Nvidia/Mediapipe tracking with webcams is exceptional, but things like mouth pucker aren't accessible even though it is captured when you look at the preview. Edit: I should've clarified that I use a Brio 4k for tracking

I just got the Logitech Brio 4K and I’m very impressed with the quality. It does 4K 30, 1080p 60 and both look great

My guess is because the Brio (and all Logitech 4K webcams I believe) requires a USB 3.0 connection and drivers to fully function. Any USB 2.0 webcam that’s UVC (driverless) seems to be supported.

I'd try updating the firmware on my Brio 4k, but I have a specific version installed so that Windows Hello works.

Logitech brio. Hat 2 Mikros und eine 4k Kamera.

I have a Logitech Brio 4K plugged into the doc and it shows us on Mario Kart. I haven’t tried it with anything else, but it seems to work for me.

I have no clue why it does, just happy as it’s my only external webcam.

TLDR: use Logitech Brio 4K instead of Elgato cams. I was using Logitech Brio 4K standalone and then got the Elgato Facecam to go with the Elgato Prompter. I found for Zoom/MS Teams meetings, the Elgato Prompter screen was too small to be normally useful, so it’s relegated to a side display that’s not usually hooked up because I don’t like Displaylink. Prompter is good for recording videos, but not when you actually want to see something. But then I used the Elgato cam as my primary cam - I accidentally switched to the Logitech and got unsolicited feedback that the quality of the Logitech was MUCH better. I asked others and they confirmed. So… my Elgato cam/prompter is kind of sitting on the side of my desk doing nothing as the Brio is again my primary cam.

Very disappointed with this, i have two brio 4k the Apple branded one and the original and both don't work

Very disappointed with this, i have two brio 4k the Apple branded one and the original and both don't work

Damn so you see I was going to go webcam but I have a Sony A7 IV lol and I always recommend a ZV10. Buuutttt The Logitech Brio PRO is my top recommendation because it’s “almost” 4k lol but it’s ultra clear and the mic is amazing

Thanks. I do get that, but again, I would rather get a camera. Like, idk how much I'll go into it, so I don't wanna drop a bomb on an iPhone to not just not use it much. Was wondering what an ideal webcam is that works well, too. Apparently the Brio 4K is good? I was aware more than IR made iPhones good for tracking, but also aware IR is a big factor, so wondered about IR webcams.

Thanks man and tbf, I've seen the Brio 4K for good prices on eBay. I could grab one for £50-£60. Not too bothered if it's second hand because a camera either works or doesn't lol....I don't need it new. Hmm, okay, fair enough for the light, I may have to do the same. I do have a lamp, but it's way too bright. Need something else. Also, didn't know it had IR, thanks.

I don't use Reddit much, but just saw this. I bagged a Brio 4K for £56. I'm yet to set it up, but thanks for letting me know about the Hello Windows thing. I've seen the HW thing a few times here and there, but I don't really know anything about it. I'm sure I'll figure it out!

Logitech Mx brio 4k is pretty good. I think it’s around that price. I use that as my secondary,

I can't speak for that particular model, but I have a Logitech Brio Ultra HD webcam and it's just plug and play on pretty much any distro, including Fedora.

Hey, I use the logitech mx brio 4k for professional work, pretty solid IMO.

WYRESTORM Focus 210 This is compatible, but I returned it. My use case is a TV (and camera) 6 feet away from a 10 foot wide couch. I am capturing four faces of two adults and two children. The Focus 210 has a 120 degree field of view which easily captures the entire couch. It was actually a bit too wide. After zooming in and selecting faces, the image quality of individual faces was less grainy than the official Nintendo camera, but a lot softer. Too much detail was lost to keep the camera.

Logitech MX Brio Ultra 4K This is compatible and is the camera I kept. My use case is a TV (and camera) 6 feet away from a 10 foot wide couch. I am capturing four faces of two adults and two children. The 90 degree field of view is wide enough to capture the entire family on the couch. Each face is more detailed than what the official Nintendo camera provides. I connected to the dock via a USB-A (male) to USB-C (female) adapter. I did upgrade to the latest firmware before connecting to the Switch.

My Logitech 4K webcam doesn’t work

I love my Logitech 4k. Only negative is that it doesn't come with a remote control, so you have to manually move it. But I ended up returning my obs tiny with remote control because I liked the Logitech better.

I have the Logitec Brio and it's an awesome webcam. If you have a newer phone from the last 3 years or so, you can connect it to your computer through an app like Camo and the picture is excellent!

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 have the Brio, this is correct. The c922 is a well documented workhorse.

I use the Logitech Brio because xQc uses it. I've never had a problem with it.

Logitech brio and onn tripod

I have a Brio as well and its ability to self adjust brightness is stellar. I also use a poly sync 20 for the audio and the setup is excellent.

A few months back I upgraded from my Logitech BRIO to a Sony ZV-E10 and the difference in quality is HUGE. I am very pleased with my experience. I use this camera for streaming only, not YouTube, so I can't comment on that. But my stream looks so crisp now as the camera does a great job handling low lit backgrounds with minimal grain. I believe the ZV-E10 was around $800? And included the cam itself and also an adjustable lense.

Logitech Brio works great, about $80-100

I use an instalink 360 and it works really great. I've tried a Logitech Brio and a Lumina 4k also, but I like the instalink the best. https://amzn.to/4fAm268

I have several on primary, secondary and office workstations. The two cameras I really enjoy are the Logitech Brio and the Elgato FaceCam Pro. The Brio has served me well since the pandemic lockdown, every day for at least two hours a day in Teams meetings. The FaceCam Pro is a quit recent purchase, I replaced a clunky setup with a Sony mirrorless with it. It has great quality and a nice bokeh for a webcam, and together with a key- or ring-light it makes for good recordings, not just meetings. I find this is a tremendous upgrade from just joining from my mac or surface laptop. I pair with a good microphone, and I almost have a studio with just three usb-c connections (mic, cam, neo keylight). Just haven't figured out how to handle my clicky-click mechanic keyboards when I do demo video recordings...

You can snag a Logitech brio on eBay new for about $60 and they’re great with the Logitech ghub app. Pretty simple can and has tons of functionality

logitech brio is the best one, don’t listen to people saying the c920 whatever they are outdated and the colour is bad, get a brio

I got the Logitech Brio and maybe there's some settings I don't know how to adjust, but I can't stand the way the colors show up. When I open up the camera settings for adjustment, there's nothing really to do for the coloration.. Just to turn HD on/off, adjust brightness. When I looked it up, people were recommending a streaming service OBS to get the most out of it, and that's just not a path I'm willing to go down. Does anyone have a recommendation for a webcam that is more straightforward, and still brings a great visual? I'm doing meetings all day, so it's just to capture that.

If it's on sale, I'd pursue the Logitech Brio. The picture is pretty clean with this webcam.

I switched from the Elgato to the Brio. It's an improvement, but I'd look at reviews first to be safe.

I have a Brio and it's mic is surprisingly great.

The c920 is just a classic standard all around fine webcam. But it is getting a bit old now and was release date back in 2012... Logitech have the c922 that can do 60fps in 1080p tho. Logitech Brio is a better webcam overall and can do 4k. Insta360 Link 2 is also there but is in a completely different price range.

Razer makes pretty good cameras! I use a Logitech brio and that has been a pretty good camera. I would also recommend the Sony A400

I have the Brio, I wouldn't recommend it over a budget cam for 80 or so. Unless you are planning to do high deff titty streams, the extra detail is lost when you shrink the webcam window

What would you suggest? I’m using a Logitech Brio

Crazy how brio is 7 years old but still the best tech around. 

How does this compare to the Logitech brio? In terms of face unlocking for windows hello.

I was gonna say, the brio for me was a bit finicky at unlocking. Especially in the dark. I wonder if that's changed any?

I was hoping for some kind of driver update to fix that, but it might be due to hardware limitations.

My Logitech Brio doesn't work. The microphone shows up but the camera test doesn't detect a camera.

I love my Brio I had it since 2019

The cheaper the better? The Logitech C920 is what most people start with @ 50$ ish. That’s what i started with as well, now i use the brio

Logitech Brio Webcam $140 vs Logitech C920x Webcam ($70) I have both and the c920x is a good camera for the price. Or you can try this for turning your phone into a webcam. - [https://iriun.com/](https://iriun.com/)

Others are right you will struggle to get high fps or high resolution though ml pipelines. Typically things are downsampled before that step and then the keypoints re overlayed on top of the full res video. For your purposes you could pick up any cheap 720p webcam and it would probably work well. Or the logitech brio is probably the best consumer grade webcam out there still but the 4k mode is kind of a processing mode rather than true resolution. But it is a very good webcam. I have also tried this webcam which works well but is less user friendly. The main advantage here is swappable lenses so you can change the fov/ zoom so far away subjects can take up more of the frame. Webcams are usually pretty wide angle since people are close to them normally.

Hey do you guys have any idea which cam is good for streaming? I brought a Elgato Facecam Pro beacause my old Logitech Brio getting crashes all the time. But in the elgato pro i look very very ill. My face is red like a tomate. The color fastness seems to be very bad, but i would like to have a 4k 60fps cam :(. I would also use the camera on different computers for meetings etc, So it would be nice, if i dont need to set everything up first, before i look normal :D. I also don't like moving cameras that follow me around like the obspot tiny 2, but I'd overlook that if I knew a camera like that was better. Are there any alternatives for the elgato pro? Should be cost about 200-max. 400 €. I Have a lot of Logitech and elgato in my Set-Up so im very sad, that the cam is so bad :(. The Elgato pro camera also looks good in my set up (from the aesthetic). Thanks for help! (And no i dont like to use my phonecamera as a facecam.)

So when I deactivate the white balance I find that the picture looks a bit more “real”. Nevertheless, I find my lips very reddish, for example, or my dark circles very strong. Is it not worth using a different camera? I didn't have to adjust anything on my previous Logitech Brio. Of course, the quality of the image is simply different and doesn't match the resolution and fluidity of the Elgato pro.

Very happy with Logitech Brio.

Get the BRIO. Had mine for 4 years, Still holding up. Nice crisp clear 4K especially if you keep your streams and upload them to YT later. Wouldnt use the built in mic though if you do a shitload of talk to the chat. A separate microphone is better, but you can turnoff the mic on the BRIO in the OBS settings or the Logi software.

Id like to know as well. I will say that the elgato facecam did not work well with my m1 mac mini when i tried it out. i use a logitech brio, which is good, but im also looking for something even better.

I own the first two and honestly the Logitech BRIO is totally fine as a webcam. The ONE thing that pisses me off about the Facecam Pro is that every single time I boot my PC I have to unplug and plug it back in to work as it doesn’t receive enough power on boot. Every time without fail it displays a yellow light. Unplug, replug, magically it works. But it’s super annoying. Another thing that irks me is the advertising for these says 4K, 60 fps when they in fact only offer 4K *or* 60fps. Not both at the same time. Not that it matters much for streaming on Twitch, but it sure would be nice to not have to constantly compromise on framerate or resolution for recorded content. No amount of reinstalling drivers or using different ports has ever fixed these issues. I’m just tired of webcams not working properly man. Would be easier to just use your phone at this point.

I use a logitech Brio and i don't think its worth the price. I can't vouch for the elgato, but i also have a c920 from logitech that is almost as good quality as the brio for 1/2 the price

Unless this is a hobby that you enjoy throwing money at, a better camera won’t make a huge difference. Focus on your content and lighting. Lighting helps ALMOST any shitty camera look amazing. Webcam quality in 2020 is way better than it was in 2008. Only If you’re making money from streaming, such that your profits can pay for a new camera, that’s the only time I’d recommend upgrading your camera beyond a Logitech Brio. But even this elgato face cam is good enough

We use logitech brios for my job. They are pretty crisp and offer good lighting/glare control.

Logitech Brio is a great option to start. If $199 is too steep you might try finding one used somewhere like Craigslist...

The brio is pretty good for its price. Make sure you get the one you have shown here if you choose brio. The newer one is honestly worse quality in terms of picture. I would not get the egato facecam unless you can get the pro, which is significantly more expensive but has insanely good picture quality for a webcam. Its almost indistinguishable from an actual DSLR. I'd say the obsbot is probably a little bit better than the brio in quality. The c922 that people are suggesting is markedly worse than any of these choices and despite what people tell you, lighting is not going to fix that. You're going to want good lighting for any camera you use.

I have a Logitech brio mounted on top of an oled TV that’s basically a thin pane of glass (<.4” thick). The c920 uses the same style monitor mount so I assume that will also work assuming your monitor isn’t some sort of flexible display that couldn’t hold the weight.

Brio is great, I like the Icontact as I do a lot of presentations and eye contact with the camera helps come across as engaged. I think Sony just bought them so a new versions coming out. Mic is great. I dont think video quality is any better than the brio though.

I use a Logitech BRIO and an Amazon essentials webcam stand

thats odd, I plugged in my brio to the dock and it only recognized it as a usb mic

I had the brio for a very long time still have it today and it's fantastic

I use both the Brio and c920 I have to use a separate software for the brio to make the picture look more clear. So it's just not plug and play. Same for the c920. Before streaming I set the camera settings first to 30fps Go to advance setting, I uncheck white balance. Go to the next tab and uncheck the two. Then one of em I unchecked I set it from 4 to a 5. Click apply, okay. Then go to settings again but change it to Highest Fps. The screen may go dark after this option. But it's okay because you go to advance settings and set the Gain to the highest level. Now it looks much better. You just need some lighting and you're all set. I'm typing this from memory, not on my computer, so directions may seem confusing.

I got the brio myself!

It's a great choice which you've choosen for your discord+ video calling. The Logitech Brio is great choice and I've found available at ubuy too. It's a trustworthy website for you to get started shopping I'm saying this on my personal experience and how I've enjoyed prompt product delivery from them. Go ahead and shop as you please.

Logitech C920 or the Brio if you can find it for a decent price

We have the Logitech Brio and it works great

dont get brio unless you want to be dealing with its OBS zoom/position settings constantly resetting.

I have the Brio and it works great. I did not install any of Logitechs software. No need for it. Primarily use it with Teams via Citrix as well as Zoom and Face time locally.

+1 to the Logitech brio An expensive one but it looks great. Our office just got one for each desk and I recommend it.

Damn!! That's the one I have that I was going to try

I’ve been using the Logitech brio for many years and think the quality of the video is really great

Its really good Brio is better for both lighting and audio, this price is way high though, I dont know why I paid 30 for the last one I bought.

I 3rd the Brio statement. Mine was hot garbage, no matter how perfect I made my lighting.

I got the OBSbot earlier this week. Can’t speak to the Elgato but it bodies the Brio in my opinion (even though I got the 1080p OBSbot) one of the best webcams I’ve seen

My friends and I did notice it looked like a USB-C port in the Direct. The confirmation is appreciated. Glad I can just use my Brio Webcam

I 2nd the brio sentiment here. I have done everything in my power to make it look good and it only looks DECENT in perfectly lit situations.

Also in Canada. I bought my Brio (heard it was better than these ones) off Best Buy - open box deal was $100

I use the Hollyland M2 mics, it's incredible for streaming. Logi Brio seems to be working well on the camera front as well, even that though you can use your smartphone if you want to save a few extra bucks.
