In the age of modern technology, you can work without leaving your home. There are a large number of vacancies that require the desire to work and the presence of a webcam, which will allow the boss to interview you and communicate on work topics.

The webcam connects to the computer and transmits the image directly to it. Let's take a closer look at products from the Logitech brand - one of the most popular manufacturers of such equipment.

Advantages and disadvantages

Logitech camcorders have their own characteristics, but almost all of them are positive. If you want to purchase any of the models, you should study the company as a whole and see what the advantages and disadvantages of the products are.

We will discuss the positive aspects first.

  • A high resolution. You can buy cameras with different characteristics, but everywhere the resolution will be from 1280x720 to 3840x2160, which allows you to get clear frames both in photographs and in videos.
  • Minimum computer requirements. Cameras are suitable for almost all systems and immediately after switching on via USB they start working. This does not require additional drivers or any special programs.
  • Nice microphone. The microphone is included in all models, it is built-in. There is noise cancellation almost everywhere, which makes people's voices clearer without any interference. But even if you take a webcam, which does not have this feature, the sound quality will be very good.
  • Motion Sensor. This function allows you to record actions in motion, turn on and off the backlight, as well as sound when the camera detects movement. Thanks to the wide field of view, you can deviate from the center of the camera, but remain in the frame.
  • Zoom. Allows you to shoot any room, focusing on every detail. Even in the largest conference room, there will be no problem with small and fuzzy images. However, all this needs to be configured through special programs, which is done in a couple of minutes.
  • The material from which the body is made. Cameras are black in color, made of a material that will not scratch or break at all upon impact, but you still need to be careful.
  • The ability to rotate the camera 360 degrees. Allows you to shoot from any corner of the room by rotating the webcam as needed for the perfect shot.
  • Long wire. This feature makes it possible to use the webcam at a considerable distance (1.5 meters) from the computer.

There are very few disadvantages, but they are still there.

  • High price of some models. Despite the fact that the price corresponds to the quality, not everyone is happy with it. There are models that can be purchased for 1.5 thousand rubles, and there are those that cost 70-80 thousand. Of course, the quality of shooting and other characteristics will be completely different, but the prices are still shocking.
  • Inconvenient fastening. All cameras have a special mount, and some also have the ability to mount on a tripod. But there is not a single model where the mount would normally hold the device. It's pretty weak everywhere, made of plastic and can't handle the weight of the webcam.
  • Small size. Not really a minus, rather a feature, but many people do not like it.

Some miniature models do not inspire confidence, because not many people can fit into the frame. This is very inconvenient for meetings.

Model overview

A large selection of webcams with different characteristics and at different prices makes you think about which one to choose. To answer this question, consider the most popular models among users.

  • Logitech Brio Stream. Camcorder that allows you to shoot in Ultra HD 4K at 60 frames per second. When rendering, the colors are as bright as in life, which is very pleasing. The lighting will not affect the resulting image in any way, because the camera adjusts automatically. The frame resolution is 3840x2160, which guarantees clear footage even while driving. The camera weighs only 63 grams, the device is, in principle, small and almost invisible on the computer.

But despite such a tiny size, this model has been working for at least a year. Price - 15 thousand rubles.

  • Logitech C920s. The model is equipped with two microphones that are able to clearly transmit sounds without any interference. In addition, an autofocus system is built in, which helps to take good shots. Video filming takes place in Full HD 1080p, the image is quickly transmitted, which is very important during conferences. As with the previous model, the camera is equipped with light correction. The difference is the new Capture software and the price - 6.4 thousand rubles.
  • Logitech C615. Unusual web-camera that can be folded and fit even in a pocket. The quality of the video allows video communication with good images and no interference. The model is compatible with all computers and does not require additional software to operate. Again, autofocus and automatic lighting correction, which is very convenient for communication.

  • Logitech C310. This webcam was produced quite a long time ago, but it has not undergone a single change, being a very good option. Auto tracking function, lighting correction, high quality sound and image transmission - all this makes users happy. Everyone likes the price even more - only 2.5 thousand rubles for such a high-quality model.
  • Logitech C922. The cheapest model, but the quality does not get worse from this. High resolution and video recording in 720 p format, like many cameras, but for 1.5 thousand rubles. The image is automatically corrected, the brightness and colors of the picture are adjusted. The built-in microphone makes video calling even more convenient. The only drawback is the mount, which is not suitable for every monitor.
  • Logitech C270. You can buy it in any store for a small price - only 1.5 thousand rubles. Only the camera and the installation diagram are included. The cable is only 50 cm, which is a disadvantage if you need to connect the camera over a long distance. The microphone is sensitive, and the image quality is pleasing. There will be no problems with video communication. Of course, this model is not very suitable for meetings, but for a sincere conversation with relatives - just right.
  • Logitech Brio Ultra HD Pro Webcam. The small model allows you to record images in Full HD 4K quality. Built-in microphone, quick setup and quick connections make this model one of the best. Stylish design (you can choose not only a black camera, but also an orange one), of course, is not a reason to pay 15 thousand rubles for it, but excellent sound and a removable USB cable are a reason.
  • Logitech C925e Business Webcam. The model can be purchased for 5-6 thousand rubles, while receiving a small camera that is certified for business. The shooting speed reaches 30 frames per second, which makes communication more productive. The field of view is 78 degrees.
  • Logitech B525 Foldable Business Webcam. The webcam is also made specifically for business, but with it you can also tutor over the Internet and play games over the network. The sound quality is excellent and the voices are intelligible, which is very important in business communication. The front of the camera is closed to protect the device from dust. Price 3 thousand.rubles for such a device is not so much.
  • Logitech C930e Business Webcam. A model with an unusual design, but with the same characteristics. Good quality, fast autofocus, excellent color reproduction and zoom, nice body material. You can endlessly list the positive aspects, so let's turn to the disadvantages. It is one, but very large - the price is around 10 thousand rubles. For such quality, they demand a good amount, which is not available to everyone.

And there are also round cameras - Logitech ConferenceCam Group and Logitech ConferenceCam PTZ Pro 2, but they are no different, except for the shape and price - these are the same models for which you will have to pay 70-80 thousand rubles.

How to choose?

First of all, you need to decide what the camera is for and how it will be used. Depending on the purpose, different characteristics are needed, therefore, different models. Basically, webcams are required for conferences, Skype calls to family and friends, for streaming and video recording on various sites.

When choosing, we pay attention to a number of factors.

  1. Sensor resolution. It is measured in megapixels and can be from 0.3 to 3. The quality of the image depends on these numbers.
  2. Video and photo resolution. And also the size of the frame is important, in the Logitech camera it can be from 1280x720 to 3840x2160.
  3. Frame rate per second. This parameter affects the transmission of motion in the video. It can be from 7 to 60, but it is better to pay attention to models where the speed is at least 30 frames per second.
  4. Focusing. Many cameras have automatic focusing, which is very convenient. In the process of communication, you can change the position of the body, but still stay in the frame and not lose the clarity of the image.
  5. Viewing angle. Affects the resulting image. Here, the higher the number, the better.
  6. Microphone. All cameras have a built-in microphone, but you should pay attention to those cameras that have noise cancellation so that only your voice can be heard, and not shouts from the street or loud music from neighbors.
