I use an Anker Powerconf C200, it works great in low light and does 1080p/60. I only use some LED lights at around 40% brightness with mood lighting and my monitor brightness is set pretty low and my camera quality is great. I have a Logitech Litra Glow key light as well, but I rarely ever use it unless I'm really trying to light something up. Some of the Logitech cameras work fairly well in lower light too, like the C920, C720, and anything in the Brio line.
r/Twitch • Low light camera? ->A few months back I upgraded from my Logitech BRIO to a Sony ZV-E10 and the difference in quality is HUGE. I am very pleased with my experience. I use this camera for streaming only, not YouTube, so I can't comment on that. But my stream looks so crisp now as the camera does a great job handling low lit backgrounds with minimal grain. I believe the ZV-E10 was around $800? And included the cam itself and also an adjustable lense.
r/Twitch • Best value camera for streaming and YouTube video creation? ->I have a Brio as well and its ability to self adjust brightness is stellar. I also use a poly sync 20 for the audio and the setup is excellent.
r/macmini • Webcam recommendation for use with Microsoft Teams ->I have the Brio, this is correct. The c922 is a well documented workhorse.
r/Twitch • Which face cam should I get as a beginner streamer? ->IMHO, no, there isn't. I have had multiple Logitech Brio and various other cameras and used them with Windows Hello and I always find that they take way too long time to actually respond and sign you in. Apple's camera is instantly -- doesn't even take half a second on newer phones. Windows' takes like 2~3 seconds at times just to engage the damn camera. I constantly fall back to using a basic PIN code to unlock my Windows devices as a result as that's by far the quickest unlock method I've found.
r/Windows11 • Windows Hello devices ->I use the Logitech Brio because xQc uses it. I've never had a problem with it.
r/streaming • Which face cam should I get as a beginner streamer? ->I have the Logitec Brio and it's an awesome webcam. If you have a newer phone from the last 3 years or so, you can connect it to your computer through an app like Camo and the picture is excellent!
r/streaming • I need help finding a good webcam to choose ->Logitech Brio works great, about $80-100
r/homeoffice • What's your personal choice for a webcam? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS

Razer makes pretty good cameras! I use a Logitech brio and that has been a pretty good camera. I would also recommend the Sony A400
r/SmallStreamers • View on Reddit →There is hope yet! Mine is 1080p. We shall see. Couldn’t find any confirmation online.
r/NintendoSwitch2 • View on Reddit →Brio 100 is better, it has 1080p while c270 only has 720p, brio is much better for thw price
r/logitech • View on Reddit →My Logitech Brio doesn't work. The microphone shows up but the camera test doesn't detect a camera.
r/NintendoSwitch • View on Reddit →My Logitech Brio worked just fine out of the box. I imagine any popular camera should work fine.
r/linuxmint • View on Reddit →Crazy how brio is 7 years old but still the best tech around.
r/sales • View on Reddit →I use an instalink 360 and it works really great. I've tried a Logitech Brio and a Lumina 4k also, but I like the instalink the best. https://amzn.to/4fAm268
r/homeoffice • View on Reddit →I switched from the Elgato to the Brio. It's an improvement, but I'd look at reviews first to be safe.
r/streaming • View on Reddit →I love the Brio. If only you could easily rig the Apple Magic Keyboard Touch ID to work for Windows Hello.
r/Windows11 • View on Reddit →logitech brio is the best one, don’t listen to people saying the c920 whatever they are outdated and the colour is bad, get a brio
r/Twitch • View on Reddit →May not be the best.. But it will work. As others have mentioned lighting will be your determining factor. I actually use cheaper ones from logitech.. The brio 100 and the brio 101 set up at different angles. They work perfectly fine for me, but your setup will take some trial and error to get it just right. I've looked into a 4k digital slr for a main camera and honestly just can't justify the cost when what I have now works.
r/Twitch • View on Reddit →I’ve had a Brio webcam since Jan-2020 and use it all day every day. Why on earth would a webcam die?
r/BuyItForLife • View on Reddit →Do NOT get the Brio. It's laggy as soon as you take off auto exposure. Multiple people in my group of friend streamers have said this and I have too. Definitely would recommend the OBSBOT Tiny 2 Lite best bang for your buck and it's a sort of PTZ with Ai tracking. It's been an absolute dream while pairing it with Nvidia broadcast's no background tool
r/Twitch • View on Reddit →I have the Brio, I wouldn't recommend it over a budget cam for 80 or so. Unless you are planning to do high deff titty streams, the extra detail is lost when you shrink the webcam window
r/Twitch • View on Reddit →The c920 is just a classic standard all around fine webcam. But it is getting a bit old now and was release date back in 2012... Logitech have the c922 that can do 60fps in 1080p tho. Logitech Brio is a better webcam overall and can do 4k. Insta360 Link 2 is also there but is in a completely different price range.
r/Twitch • View on Reddit →If it's on sale, I'd pursue the Logitech Brio. The picture is pretty clean with this webcam.
r/streaming • View on Reddit →Can't go wrong with the logitech brio line at 1080p or obsbot tiny se they are my top picks. But if you want something that has been tried and true for years, the c922 from logitech is always a good option although older, it is rock solid and built for 1080p 30 fps webcam content with auto focus and great low light.
r/obs • View on Reddit →> will be streaming in 4K What, like to YouTube? Because you *absolutely* aren't going to be doing that on Twitch any time soon. They don't even allow enough bitrate for a proper 1080p60 stream, much less one with four times as many pixels per second. Yeah, not going to get even 4K30 for under $150 or so. Heck, you aren't even really going to get 1080p60 for that. There's the Logitech BRIO, but they're horrible basket-case shitgoblins; I have two on the shelf that I'll occasionally grab one and update its firmware and software just to see if they managed to fix it yet. So far no dice. $70 range you're looking at the gold-standard starter webcam, the Logitech c920/c922, if you can find one on sale. 1080p30 with decent image quality if your lighting setup is at least OK. *Do not* skimp on the lighting.
r/Twitch • View on Reddit →I use the logi 1080 with nvidia broadcast and good lighting set up and looks great
r/Twitch • View on Reddit →Great breakdown thank you. I’ve been using 2 Logitech brio 101s on my stream and they work great for my needs. Super crisp with a high bitrate stream
r/obs • View on Reddit →I have a brio that I use through a usb-switch both on my windows PC and work Mac. Something happened over a year ago and windows wasn’t able to find it anymore. Mac still works flawlessly and tbh I mostly need it just at work. Might be time to check on the windows side again. I’m quite sure it is a driver or firmware issue.
r/BuyItForLife • View on Reddit →How does this compare to the Logitech brio? In terms of face unlocking for windows hello.
r/pcmasterrace • View on Reddit →Brand names like the c920 are known performers. They have people who have actually used them, and deliver a known result point. The other three you have listed are no-names. The sensors may be crap; even if they technically output 1080p60, they may look like absolute hot garbage. The whitesheet spec is not the full story. What kind of optics do they use? What kind of dynamic range does the sensor provide? Is the gain amp clean, or cheap noisy trash? What kind of reliability and reproducibility do they bring to the table? Do they have a decent autofocus? How big is the actual sensor they use? --- I got fooled by the white-sheet on the Logitech Brio. Looks *amazing* on paper, the perfect camera that I'd always been hoping someone would make. I bought two, sight-unseen, when they first came out. They were (and still are) horrible basket-case shitgoblins. Sitting on my shelf, back in their boxes. Overheating, crashing, disconnecting, image corruption, and sometimes not even being recognized at all. And when they *did* work... the image quality was somehow *worse* that the c920 I'd bought them to replace. Looked like absolute fried ass. So yeah. Sometimes it's because something is known to work (reasonably well), and not just an optimized text string meant to lure people in.
r/Twitch • View on Reddit →I was hoping for some kind of driver update to fix that, but it might be due to hardware limitations.
r/pcmasterrace • View on Reddit →It's also a quite good camera for meets or whatever.
r/Windows11 • View on Reddit →Idk my wife and I both use these and they work great. Got them when we needed something better than the laptop built in cameras https://www.walmart.com/ip/1414953337?sid=6cfac5b5-23b2-40d3-a9e6-1d47be638d27
r/Zoom • View on Reddit →I got the Logitech Brio and maybe there's some settings I don't know how to adjust, but I can't stand the way the colors show up. When I open up the camera settings for adjustment, there's nothing really to do for the coloration.. Just to turn HD on/off, adjust brightness. When I looked it up, people were recommending a streaming service OBS to get the most out of it, and that's just not a path I'm willing to go down. Does anyone have a recommendation for a webcam that is more straightforward, and still brings a great visual? I'm doing meetings all day, so it's just to capture that.
r/homeoffice • View on Reddit →Elgato c920 is the gold-standard starter cam. You can find them on-sale for around $50 usually. Of those three, I'd go with the Elgato. Avoid the BRIO like the basket-case shitgoblin it is (I have two sitting on the shelf, they're worthless little turdbuckets that constantly error and look like absolute crap, even compared to a c920; I bought them when they first came out as their whitesheet makes them look like the perfect cam, but THEY ARE NOT). > Btw, I do stream at 4k60 You must be streaming to YouTube, then? Because Twitch's max bitrate would make any 4K60 stream look like hot fried poop. Absolutely unwatchable. Doubling down on the Facecam Mk2 (or bump up to the Pro), it's going to give the best quality out of the three.
r/Twitch • View on Reddit →I was gonna say, the brio for me was a bit finicky at unlocking. Especially in the dark. I wonder if that's changed any?
r/pcmasterrace • View on Reddit →100 or 300? 300 has the shutter and is USB C. 100 is USB-A. I just ordered the 100…. Edit: Looks like there’s a ton of Brio models. I ordered the most basic one.
r/NintendoSwitch2 • View on Reddit →I got a Logitech Brio 100 external webcam. It has a speaker built in (from what I remember off the top of my head). It has an indicator light to show you when it’s connected and it has a sliding cover. I got it from Best Buy, but I’m sure it’s on Amazon. I think it’s a USB plugin so you might need an adapter depending on what computer you have (I had one from my job that I’ve been using).
r/WGU • View on Reddit →What would you suggest? I’m using a Logitech Brio
r/sales • View on Reddit →Absolutely. Get started with what you can afford. The c920 is a very common one that people start with. I have the 1080p version of the Brio and I think it’s a pretty nice picture
r/Twitch • View on Reddit →My friends and I did notice it looked like a USB-C port in the Direct. The confirmation is appreciated. Glad I can just use my Brio Webcam
r/NintendoSwitch • View on Reddit →I have several on primary, secondary and office workstations. The two cameras I really enjoy are the Logitech Brio and the Elgato FaceCam Pro. The Brio has served me well since the pandemic lockdown, every day for at least two hours a day in Teams meetings. The FaceCam Pro is a quit recent purchase, I replaced a clunky setup with a Sony mirrorless with it. It has great quality and a nice bokeh for a webcam, and together with a key- or ring-light it makes for good recordings, not just meetings. I find this is a tremendous upgrade from just joining from my mac or surface laptop. I pair with a good microphone, and I almost have a studio with just three usb-c connections (mic, cam, neo keylight). Just haven't figured out how to handle my clicky-click mechanic keyboards when I do demo video recordings...
r/WeddingPhotography • View on Reddit →I got the OBSbot earlier this week. Can’t speak to the Elgato but it bodies the Brio in my opinion (even though I got the 1080p OBSbot) one of the best webcams I’ve seen
r/streaming • View on Reddit →I have a Brio and it's mic is surprisingly great.
r/homeoffice • View on Reddit →I have a logitech brio 100. It was under $50 and serves me well!
r/streaming • View on Reddit →I 3rd the Brio statement. Mine was hot garbage, no matter how perfect I made my lighting.
r/Twitch • View on Reddit →I 2nd the brio sentiment here. I have done everything in my power to make it look good and it only looks DECENT in perfectly lit situations.
