Normally when it comes time to test a product, we turn to words and still photos to do the job, but with this being a webcam review, we figured why not make a cringe-worthy video to showcase what the C922 can do out of the box? Plug the webcam into an available USB port, fire up your software, choose the C922 as your video and audio source, and you’re good to go. The swivel can be locked in place using the small plastic loop on the side, and the legs of the tripod can be pulled out to the desired length.
To secure it to the tripod, simply thread it onto the top of the swivel mount, then bring the metal ring up to meet the webcam. There’s not much in the way of installation for the C922. The C922 is capable of capturing 30 frames per second in 1080p, or 60 frames per second in 720p, while also applying low light correction, meaning the video will automatically adjust to the available light or stabilize the light if it’s inconsistent.
Flanked by a pair of omnidirectional microphones is the camera lens that captures a 78 degree field of view. We’ll start with a look at the business end of the camera.
Even though the webcam comes with a license for XSplit, it is also fully compatible with the most popular free alternative, OBS. The second model is the C922x, available exclusively from Amazon that forgoes the tripod in favour of a 6 month XSplit subscription. It comes in two flavours with the first being the C922, available directly from Logitech as well as Best Buy, which ships with a tripod and a 3 month premium license for the very popular streaming software, XSplit.
The C922 Pro Stream is compatible with Windows 7 and up, Mac OS X 10.9 and up, Chrome OS, and Android 5.0 and up. Let’s get the basics out-of-the-way first. Up until a few months ago, I was firmly planted on that side of the fence, but fast forward to today, and like many who have been bitten by the streaming bug, I now find myself on the other side of the same fence needing a higher quality solution.Īfter checking around at various online retailers, it became clear that the options are nearly limitless, as are the price tags, so today’s review of the new Logitech C922 Pro Stream webcam proved to be a learning experience for me as I wasn’t really sure what I needed or even wanted in a webcam.īy the time we wrap things up, we hope to have taken some of the guess-work out of where to start in order to take your recording or streaming to the next level. When it comes to webcams, most folks will plunk down about $40 and be ready to roll for the occasional low quality video chat.
