I appreciate the condensed form shorter running time of this review compared to others.
The biggest selling points of the Facecam are manual ISO adjustments and the ability to save the profile to the camera itself. Those are game changers.
Kiyo pro saves to the camera too if I’m not mistaken
@@jonthepizza No it doesn't, in fact even random software accessing the camera sometimes don't see those settings. And a power cycle wipes them.
Razor software also comes with the real downside of making your system unstable or less usable in other ways. I've seen it cause a windows 10 login to take minutes instead of seconds. It's just not worth the risk. I wouldn't touch anything razor related.
That`s what I`ve been needing! Thx for your test!
Nice and descriptive web cam comparison, thank you!
Great review! Gotta know, what headphones are you using in this video?
Thanks for the comparison amazing video
Doesn't the Kiyo Pro have a center stage feature?
Hello ty for the review, I had a problem with the Kyo where it would change color while I was streaming with it so I will probably buy the elgato webcam and return the Kio pro.
What camera are you using right now?
thanks, you helped me decide on my next upgrade I HATE the brio4k its just not a good cam
Thanks for the comparison!!! Many other channel will compare it to older webcams to favour it.
The Elgato Webcam should be compared to the Razer Kiyo Pro and the Dell Ultrasharp Webcam. They all have the same sensor and same RRP.
Yeah and a lot of reviewers leave the bad AF on the Kiyo Pro the whole time - even tho there was a firmware fix for it a while back but also with the Elgato being fixed focus, it seems more sensible to use the Razer in manual mode too.
Well if it isn’t the most relaxing reviewer I know popping up in my inbox.
Great video. I think I will go with the Kiyo Pro!
For me the good mics from the kiyo are the reason why i bought it. They are way better than the one in my laptop and for meetings and sessions with clients it good enough.
One bonus to the Kiyo Pro there for content creators doing tech or other stuff is they can use the manual focus to do extreme close-up shots (for instance painting miniatures, or working on a circuit board) as well as whole room shots (like say for a music performance) - if the Elgato is completely fixed focus then it can't do the close-ups and I'd be interested to see how well it focuses on far away things. For some creators this isn't an issue but for some that would be a deal breaker. It's also likely you can fine tune focus better on the Razer for a sharper image.
Do wish Razer would make the software better tho - I should point out you can still use synapse for live settings by simply deactivating the preview pane and using the OBS feed, but they've split the settings between synapse and "advanced" which uses the standard windows webcam dialogue - they should just have everything in the synapse window. Also their preset management could be a lot better.
Using the Kiyo Pro personally, and since they've released the camera there's been a firmware update that has mostly resolved the focus breathing you mentioned in the comparison.
Previously mine would have focus breathing occur once every 5-10 seconds, now it only readjusts when I shuffle in my seat a bit. Much better since the firmware update!
u sure about that? i am getting it today
@@MafiaFifawy Como les fue, se llego a solucionar los del enfoque automatico??
What stand do you have the HyperX SoloCast on?
So useful and very professional! But I am still not sure which webcam I should buy. Every product seems to have advantages and disadvantages.
great thank u
Did the Kiyo Pro have the latest firmware (I think 1.05) for this test? It should help with the focus options. I grabbed the Kiyo Pro because it's down to $130 right now *Went down to 99.99 for Black Friday*
How do you like it? It’s half off right now and I’m debating on it.
@@BK-ml5kr I returned and bought again to take advantage of the updated 99.99 price. Amazon refused to provide credit. Ideally try to get batch 2120. Directly plug into laptop or motherboard port. Don't use a USB hub that doesn't have an additional power source. So far it has been great.
@@DKTD23 when you say plug into a mobo port. Like the backside of a computer vs the cases ports?
@@BK-ml5kr yeah. Case ports should be ok, but the back is the best. The key is to avoid underpowered hubs. Then people complain about disconnects and blame the Webcam. Also Synapse will tell you to update the firmware. Out of the box will be 1.03
@@DKTD23 i just ordered for half off as well. i believe my motherboard has usb c is that where it should be plugged?
Yeah I have the avermedia 4k and the kiyo pro looking to add this. :D
May I ask what you need so many webcams for?
@@verifiednerd847 curious as well
Awesome 😎👍
im here for the free beer! i love the elgato btw 4me
Tbh the elgato looks like super grainy on the walls and stuff behind you
You should have mentioned the razor's wide angle field of view. As a pianst I will be needing Razor's wider field of view to accomodate the entire piano. Elgato just does not cut it. That was the main reason i chose the Kiyo Pro over Elgato
I'd like the facecam I think, buuut I can get a kiyo pro new for 100$..
So as of 2024
Which one is the best with firmware updates and everything??
As of now the Razer is 79.99
ElGato is 129.99
Please leave your opinion/comments or experiences below.
I just bought the Kiyo pro its pretty nice. You'll have to mess with it a bit though I think to get it as you want.
Same I bought the Razer Kiyo, I'm loving t the colors and how smooth the video is
Great review . Facecam for the win. But what if a guy wanted to go to the next level. What DSLR would you recommend for twitch content. I would like something nice but not to ridiculously over priced.
A7S III
@@edenassos$ 4,500... for a stream. No thanks
I'll answer my own question. Elgato Facecam running Nvidia Broadcast is as close as you can get for under 400$ CDN. Çareful though Nvidia broadcast requires a RTX card and will cost you about 40-70 FPS.
Hmm I have razer kiyo pro and I just bought the elegato and I'm not a fan. The razor does a much better job in low light then the elgato. Both great cams but I'll probably be returning the elegato 😅
Agreed, the Kiyo Pro is definitely much better in low light
that's great to read this, cause i'm about to go for the razer pro, since the elgato is pricey, and i heard marvels about razer pro as well, in terms of handling just fine low light conditions, and having great colours!
Yeah I have both and the Kiyo Pro is so much better in low light and the colors pop. The Elgato just doesn’t want to pop in colors unless I bump up the ISO.
I just bought Razer Kiyo Pro 2 days ago to replace my Logi C930e and I'm super happy with it, need to tweak it a bit tho. Razer has backlight compensation more as I saw on the video vs Logi StreamCam. Also Kiyo do the details job, uncompressed, and lastly, it's obviously like a big lens in your face hahahaha. Depending on how you stream tho, if you stream just to pop out your face and make it on small cam at side of screen while you gaming, just use your phone camera without green screen and it's all good. As Twitch DJ streamer, it takes a lot of effor too to offer great things. The Music, Visuals, Overlays, Equipments, everything. But Twitch community has been so amazing since I start stream from July 2020. Literally from Zero to Hero. Lastly, this Facecam makes me want to buy it too ahahaha but I already go the Kiyo Pro.

不如GOPRO
Most of these products are missing the point. Yes I would love to install a new webcam for work but the chances of an IT dept letting you download the software is pretty much zero. If you cant find a way to customise a webcam outside of that software then most of us home workers just go ..meh .. so what?!
with this cam, the settings are stored in the cam itself, its got built in memory, so you can set it up on your personal pc
Except that's not really the target audience for these webcams. Even though out the box without the software, they'd be way more than enough, probably even overkill, for work-purposes. And just out the box they're 100x better than what you'd get at work anyway. But, either way, these would be more for your streamers and content creators.
Then set them up once on something else and leave the on camera settings as is
I honestly hate the sharpness
Dope
Elgato Facecam Pro ALL THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
mm in my opinion Kiyo pro is better
