I was frustrated for a while since the camera wasn’t clipping into the tripod one cleanly, and tended to flop around within the bracket. You switch by lifting the camera up out of the bracket, rotating by ninety degrees and putting the camera back down in the bracket. And that makes it easy to place the camera for interesting angles and views.īoth camera brackets allow the camera to be orientated in portrait or landscape mode. Just a little plastic thing with a threaded metal insert, it lets you mount the camera on a standard threaded camera stand. That is, a second bracket for the camera. It allows the camera to swivel horizontally along with up and down a little.īut I’ve got to say that one of the niftiest features of the Logitech Streamcam is a small inclusion that must have cost Logitech just a few cents per unit. As usual with these things, it doesn’t look especially secure but it actually works quite well. Of course, the camera comes with one of Logitech’s sit-on-the-monitor brackets. Lesser hardware is needed if you’re content with running the camera at 720p30. Logitech recommends at least a 7th Gen Intel Core i5 on Windows 10 computers, or an 8th Gen Core i5 on Macs. For 1080p60 performance, it must be plugged into a computer supporting USB 3.1. The 1.5 metre communications cable is fixed and terminated with a USB Type-C plug. The diagonal field of view is 78 degrees. The lens – which is glass – has a fixed f/2.0 aperture and a focal length of 3.7mm. Around the lens at the front is a tweedy cloth, behind which are the live camera indicator light and two microphones for sound capture. It comes in either graphite or that computer-style off-white. In portrait orientation, it’s 58mm wide by 48mm tall. The Logitech Streamcam is a small unit, almost square in shape when viewed from the front.
