OBSBOT - Tiny 3

Thanks!! I’m going to choose the YoloCam S3 over the OBSBOT Tiny after going through both spec sheets and comparing them side by side. My use case is mostly online meetings and recordings, seated at a desk. I’m on a Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 5 (Windows 11), and my audio is already sorted with a RØDE PodMic USB and Etymotic ER2-XR IEMs via the Apple USB-C to 3.5 mm adapter. So the Tiny’s built-in mics and tracking don’t add value for me. On specs alone, I think image quality is essentially on par. For my setup, the S3 wins because it’s fixed, predictable, has no moving parts, and offers stronger manual image and colour control for a clean, consistent “set-and-forget” look. Tiny makes sense if you move around or need PTZ/tracking. For desk-based meetings and recordings, the S3 is the cleaner choice.

Need more info: what are you streaming? What do you want output resolution to be? How big will your camera be on screen? Can your computer handle streaming and process the resolution you want? Example: you are streaming a game at +60fps and your 4k camera is capped at 24fps, there will be a visual disconnect if your on-screen camera is larger. I went with the Obsbot Meet at $70 USD; 1080p at 120fps. It does well in low light situations, has software to manually adjust settings and good framing. I use OBS to match the fps from my El Gato HD 60 capture card.

I’m happy with the Obsbot, it’s entry level and you can get the upgraded one with 2k/4k for $150 USD on amazon. Can’t exactly remember the frame rates off the top of my head but I think 2k is at least 60fps. I watched a lot of videos before I bought mine and most YouTubers do a great job breaking down settings and raw footage of each camera they review. There are a lot of good suggestions in the comments; I would look each one up and also factor in your lighting as that impacts your camera more than you’d think.

osbot ptz is the ultimate soosoo good I have the lite i love it

I have been using an obsbot tiny camera for about a year. I know that’s not a long time but I can’t see how it would burn out any time soon

Obsbot tail/tiny can spin all the way around and they're USBC so you can get however long a cord you want. At least one of them is wireless too so even more mobility

You can often find the obsbot tiny used for around $60 and it has built-in microphones

Yeah to go on what you're saying, start out with just basic equipment and feel it out. Also the XLR mics and stuff are nice but start out with a USB mic because with filters in OBS it can sound amazing. Camera wise There is the OBSBOT 4k camera which is honestly amazing value for money.

I use both the OBSBOT 4k and Insta360 4k and both are great. Getting some basic lighting set up will go along way as well.

The Insta360 I use at work in my office which I keep on the dim side and it still looks great. I use the OBSBOT at home in my music studio which I film in dark but with a key light on my face and it works great.

I have the OBSbot and the thing is very very good. Highly recommend

I absolutely LOVE my OBSbot webcam

I am going with Obstbot
