Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Elgato Face Cam MK. 2 is a pretty good webcam, and one of the best at this price range. The picture looks really good, even when it has less than optimal lighting, but you'll still need a decent lighting setup for it to look truly great. The software is very intuitive and easy to get to grips with. All the options to adjust different camera settings are very welcome, and leaving some of them set to auto-adjust still produces great results. However, I think the true gem of the software is their background removal option which was surprisingly accurate even when under low light conditions. It comes with several stock backgrounds, some animated, most of them look really good and you add your own custom backgrounds or explore Elgato's digital store for more. The vast majority of those are paid unfortunately. One last note on the software, for the streamers, there is a lot of functionality between programs like OBS and this software, opening the door to a lot of creative shenanigans. The build quality feels impressive too. Very sturdy and it feels nice and snug when clamped on my monitor. And it is really easy to adjust and move it after you've already placed it. One small complaint though, it is a bit fiddly getting it at the exact right angle and you may need a separate tripod if you're also particular about that. But all in all, a pretty good webcam that does much more good than it does mediocre. I would recommend it highly if this if you're trying to not completely blow the bank.

Great quality webcam, easy to use and very clear image and I highly recommend it for streaming especially if you can afford it!

Quality is very good, easy to set up and get running.

I stream a lot and have used my old vlogging camera for years but I wanted to upgrade to higher picture quality and this has done just that. The coloring is hard to get right but for the price I’d say it’s more accurate then other cams I was researching. So if you are looking for low budget high quality cam this works great. Just note it does not have autofocus. But as long as you’re not planning to run around the room you should be fine :) and that also helps with the odd focus blur we get on other cams.

This beauty plugged into my linux pc and started right away. The picture is crisp and bright and I can't wait to use it for my tutoring sessions!

Such a great webcam, wow! I used to use the C922 (don't remember if it ended with 'x' or not) It's around the same price and leagues worse. This webcam is amazing. Right out of the box it works clearly and crisp with discord and obs. I will be using this for the foreseeable future until I upgrade to a DSLR

quality is fine for someone just starting out. definitely would want to upgrade to a 4k camera later on

For 1080p I don’t think there’s a better webcam on the market, of all I’ve tried this one blew me away.

Very good quality camera at 1080p at 60 frames per second with very good software and compatibility with various web calling and streaming programs and above all from a well-known and safe brand like El Gato.

It's a pretty good webcam, though I'd recommend not using HDR as you lose the fine details in your face when you do. I would also recommend a decent key light to enhance the video quality.

Great face cam that’s huge improvement compared to built in camera of the laptop I head, it’s able sit on top of laptop or monitor with its clamp but also has option to be screwed onto a tripod which I did to allow you for added stability. Plug download driver from elgato to make sure it properly works

That’s was my first ever webcam and I still use it to this day, it’s that good! Being able to capture 4k resolution and 60 frames is quite the accomplishment. Would totally recommend!

I love this webcam! Crystal clear visuals, perfect for streaming on Twitch, or for video calls on Zoom or Discord. Elgato makes fantastic audio and video products, and the Facecam Mk 2 definitely deserves a place on the shelf with some of their best products. I use my Facecam Mk 2 with an Elgato Wave 3 and an Elgato HD60X for content creation, and it's definitely a winning combo. Five outta five, for sure.

Love it !! Camera works amazing love it for streaming and discord calls !

Works great! Would definitely recommend this camera for streaming or content creation

The Elgato Facecam MK.2 surprised me from the first moment. The installation was super simple: connect and that's it. The image quality is incredible, vivid colors, perfect sharpness and you can see the difference of 60 fps when I play and stream. Even in low light conditions it maintains a clear and grainless image.

Let me start off with saying i use to use a sony a7r2 mirrorless camera when i streamed it was great but times got hard and i sold it needed something to replace it on a budget picked this up and i was blowed away of course it didnt look as good as the $1800 camera but money over quality i would recommend the elgato over the sony anyday just for the simplicity of setting everything up and the images u get is amazing out of this little thing!

Great webcam! Super clear picture, easy setting up. Also compatible with Windows 11, high-end graphics cards and broadcasting software. This was my primary reason why I bought it.

Easy to setup and use. Good quality as well. Not really much to complain about. The elgato software also makes this camera super fun and easy to use as well. Highly recommend

Very nice camera easy to setup really easy to get situated. Only slight con is it’s a little difficult to close privacy shutter without smudging lense so I don’t close it often. Started streaming for first time did not want to ball out on insane setup but didn’t like quality of Logitech c920.
