But then the C920S Pro HD only shoots at 30fps vs the 60fps you’ll get from the StreamCam and the StreamCam looks a lot nicer (which matters if it’s going to sit on top of your monitor 24/7).

The sticking point for some will be the price, when you consider that you can get the Logitech C920S Pro HD Webcam – which is also marketed at streamers – for two thirds of the price. If you’re a content creator then the Logitech StreamCam is a solid choice, producing clear images and audio in stereo or dual mono though you’ll probably want to pair it with a separate microphone.

You can also use it on YouTube, Facebook Live, or Twitch via Open Broadcaster Software (OBS) or XSplit (the StreamCam comes with a 3-month premium XSplit license). I tried it successfully using Zoom and Google Meet – you simply need to go into the video chat app’s settings and change the camera from Logitech StreamCam to Logitech Capture. Once you’ve selected your inputs you can choose layouts such as picture-in-picture or side-by-side.Īs well as using Logitech Capture to record videos you can use it as a virtual camera when you’re streaming.

The software also adds AI-enabled facial tracking and lets you add filters, text overlays and borders to your recorded videos. Logitech Capture gives you automatic exposure, framing, and image stabilization and it lets you manually adjust various settings such as frame rate, resolution, white balance, brightness, contrast and level of zoom. Note that the Mac version of the software is beta and while it worked for me when using an Intel MacBook Air it would not even open on an M1 Mac Mini.

If you’re just using the StreamCam for video calls you may decide to leave your set-up as is, but to get the most out of the StreamCam you need to install the free Logitech Capture software, which is available for Windows and Mac. The difference in quality between the StreamCam and a standard laptop webcam is immediately apparent with the camera streaming a crisp, vibrant image. Within the app you’ll probably then need to select the StreamCam over your built-in webcam (if you have one) and you’re good to go. Simply plug it into a USB-C port and fire up your video chat app of choice. You can start using the Logitech StreamCam in seconds.

We’ve seen the StreamCam drop a little from that RRP at retailers such as Amazon so if you decide to buy one you shouldn’t have to pay the full price. At £139, the Logitech StreamCam sits at the higher end of the market and at the higher end of Logitech’s own webcam range with only the Logitech Brio Stream and Logitech Brio Ultra HD Pro Business Webcam being more expensive. The Logitech StreamCam is a relatively recent addition to Logitech’s webcam range, with a release date of 11 February 2020. Logitech StreamCam review: price and release date

Fortunately, Logitech had a webcam that was perfectly suited for both, in the form of the Logitech StreamCam and so it was almost impossible to get hold of for much of 2020 but many retailers have it in stock now – and not for 200% above its RRP! The StreamCam is in our current list of best webcams so let’s see what it’s like. Then 2020's 'strange times' happened and suddenly everyone wanted a webcam again, whether for live streaming or to avoid hours of hunching over a laptop webcam for work Zoom meetings.
