This is borderline crossing bleeding "webcam" and a "traditional camera" into one! Took long enough! It has good quality for the price and ease of use, and the software offers a lot of adjustable settings...except one...it is using a 1 inch sony sensor found in a lot of their entry level camera's, which is known not just for its consumer friendly dynamic range but decent bokeh effect. What I am trying to get at is the focus length is firmware locked on auto it seems. So "Just Chatting" streamers looking for that nice slightly blurred background may have to look else where, but its not all bad the auto focus is pretty good! Just don't expect it to start doing anything fancy! :D

If you need simple or quick and not confusing and good quality. This is great. Specially if you’re still getting started. I’m impressed what this webcam can do, plus if you have invidia GPU it unlocks more adjustments like if you had a green screen or blur background. When I hooked this up with my laptop from Alienware with a readon GPU I did not have this options. I only found out when I plugged it in my built RIG with invidia GPU. Also rather use this over GoPro with cam link. I’ll be selling my GoPro now and returning can link

Purchased this for my game room. I stream for fun and the way Elgato makes it so easy to use makes this thing so much nicer. If you are looking for a stream camera LOOK NO FURTHER! This one is solid. User friendly with OBS and has its own spyware you can install to customize the display features. Absolutely love mine.

So I am a Content Creator/Streamer on Facebook Gaming and I have been looking for a new camera for a while. DSLR cams were the dream but they are expensive. Then Elgato announced their new cam and I was impressed at first sight. I needed to try this out and I was lucky enough to get it after waiting a month for it to be sold on best buy. Let me tell you, the excitement I had has only grown more since getting it. Out of the box this cam is truly a big step in webcam tech. My visual is clear and precise, the colors are beautiful, and the software is what makes the hardware even better. I have never looked so great on my streams and I love it. If you are a content creator and you are looking for something in your budget but need high quality results from a webcam...Get this facecam!
