In my case, it just wasn’t worth the reduced field of view to leave turned on. Turning it on causes the camera to zoom in to hide the shaky edges and still didn’t eliminate jostling when I bumped the desk. Most webcams are set in one place and rarely move. Using Logitech Capture, the camera is able to offer a couple of neat tricks others don’t, including Image Stabilization and Auto Framing.
It’s also not common for webcams to require USB-C, so there’s a good chance some streamers will buy the StreamCam only to find out they can’t use it. Logitech recommends using an adapter in this situation, but doesn’t include one in the box, which feels awfully stingy for a product that costs $169.

If you’re connecting over Type-C, there’s no way to connect it “wrong,” but if you’re using a PC that’s a few years old, you may not have a Type-C port at all. The StreamCam side-steps that problem by ending its cable in a USB Type-C connection. This was a major issue when the Brio launched and led to many people connecting their webcams incorrectly. To make use of the StreamCam’s 60 fps at 1080p, you’ll need a USB 3.0 connection. Much more useful is the second mount Logitech included, which allows you to attach the StreamCam to a tripod. Most streamers don’t use vertical video at all, and for social media applications like Facebook Stories, very few people use anything other than a smartphone. It’s a neat feature that no other webcam I know of is capable of, and makes the StreamCam more versatile – but I’m left wondering who it’s for. The mount that comes pre-attached allows you to position it on the top of your monitor like normal, but it can also be unclipped and rotated to capture vertical video. The StreamCam is flexible in how it can be set up. A larger aperture means it can take in more light and offer better performance in dark settings. The camera’s sensor is still too small to offer the same bokeh you could expect from a nice camera and lens, but that doesn’t mean it’s pointless.

The aperture has been lowered to f2.0, which is almost a full stop below the C922’s f2.8.
The black version is a better fit, but it’s the first example of some odd design choices Logitech made here.Apart from its look, Logitech has made a number of enhancements to the camera itself. It looks stylish and modern but seems like a mismatch for modern gaming rigs. Instead of the usual flat plastic face, Logitech has trimmed the front with a fabric covering that fits right in with the company’s MX Speakers or the Amazon Echo Dot. It features a boxy design with a larger lens element. The StreamCam is strikingly different from any other webcam in Logitech’s line-up. But does it do enough to justify the years-long delay and $169 price? Featuring a fresh new design, 1080p60 video, and unexpected features like image stabilization, it aims to impress.
After the disappointing launch of the 4K-capable Brio, Logitech has a lot to prove in order to live up to the long wait. It’s been three long years since the launch of the Logitech C922, one of the best webcams available, and the streaming community has been hungry for something new.
