  • Yeah, so I spent over 3 hours today just trying to get 3 Logitech webcams to work together in OBS for this video. If that doesn't deserve a like I don't know what does...😅

  • Image stabilization actually sounds like it would be good for my setup when playing racing games. I have my monitors on a mount that clamps to my desk and due to the size/layout of my space I have to mount my wheel and shifter to my desk as well. So there can be a bit of movement for the monitors, which would also be moving any webcam attached to them. Thanks for this comparison video! I was literally just about to run to Best Buy to get a cam for streaming when I saw this!!!

  • The reverted settings bug also exists in the Logitech C922 - for example set zoom, pan and tilt in OBS/OBS.Live and have to do it all again after reboot. Have read a few comments here and saw a mention of Logitech G Suite which I will be taking a look at regardless of having to reconfigure from scratch because this issue has had me pulling hair for ages - thanks for that comment and appreciate the great review done here 👍

  • Regarding the problem mentioned at 6:30 As I understand it (I've also personally experienced this), the issue is in the software being used. If you use the old "Logitech Gaming Software," or the default software, to control the cameras, it will cause the settings to be "forgotten" or "reset" upon reboot. The fix for this is to download and setup the "Logitech G Hub," which is a newer (using the term loosely) software that allows the control of multiple cameras/devices individually, and at the same time. The downside to using this software is it will default all settings for cameras (and other Logitech devices) that you allow it to start controlling, requiring time spent to set everything back up the way you had it, before.

  • The annoying thing about the C920 settings bug is that it carried over into the C922 as well. Every time I restart OBS Studio, or the PC, I have to reset the camera properties for zoom, pan, tilt, lighting, etc. However, it would have been interesting to see you run the comparison using the C922 instead of the C920 - the C922 is closer to the price band of the Brio and Streamcam.

  • Thanks for the awesome video, I had some questions if someone could help me out. Would using an adaptor and USB3.0 lower camera quality? I recently got the streamcam and I've noticed its barely any better than my C920. I also noticed when I turn on 60 FPS the picture itself gets much darker and looks awful. Could this be because i'm using an adaptor and usb 3.0 and not 3.1? I'm eventually going to upgrade my computer but was very curious on if that's affecting anything with the webcam? I've tried messing with settings a lot but nothing seems to fix the darkness of 60 FPS either. Any help/advice would be much appreciated. Oh Also would a cam link + go pro be better than a streamcam/c920 in terms of quality?

  • Very good comparison! A pity it doesn't cover the C930. I upgraded from the C920 to C930 and was pretty happy with the jump in quality. Less noise, more detail, more accurate colour, and a wider field of view. Downside to the C930 though is the auto exposure that tries too hard. It overexposes when there's not much light. You end up being able to see more in a dark room but things like a streamer's face get blown out. I'd be keen to see a full comparison, but at a guess the C930 sits somewhere in the middle of the 920 and the StreamCam.

It seems that I am leaning towards the C920. I had a question..is it worth it for me to get a microphone? My setting is in a room, I am exercising, speaking, and playing music out of a speaker at the same time. In your opinon, wha twould be the best way to set this up?? I am trying to give the best video quality for the kids at my school and your opinion would really be appreciated! I need better quality video, the kids to be able to hear me when im approximately 5 feet away from my laptop and for them to hear the music I am playing. All the best, Eric
