I'm glad you covered the price comparison between a dedicated camera setup and the Facecam Pro. A lot of the reviewers are being super critical of the Facecam but ignore or don't mention that a dedicated camera setup easily costs 2-3x as much for even a 1080p60 or maybe a 4k30 setup. 4k60 cameras cost a fortune more, and it's hard to beat the value aspect of the Facecam Pro.

I'm personally just glad Elgato is pushing quality into the webcam industry. There has been hardly any advancements for over a decade in quality. The only thing I am disappointed in is that there is no IR camera to support Windows Hello, I feel like that feature should be included in a $300 webcam. Even cheap $50 webcams support Windows Hello.

BTW Auto-fix has a "lock" feature so that once it kicks in, you can lock the setting. It is the key-icon to the right of auto-focus.

You have done somuch detial in this review. I watched it without any skipped. Best !!!

[ArclightLeopard]

You just can't beat that Cannon color science! However you do look slightly over exposed for C-Log but, still beats the hell outta the Elgato colors especially in the skin tones very noticeable in-between the eyebrow area.

[JasonsLabVideos]

Sure can't wait for this to become in stock !!

While 300 is alot for a Webcam, the fact it can do 4k 60 at that price is pretty crazy honestly. That and getting a DSLR+Dummy battery for it+capture device for it, it just seems like a no brainer, even if it is just a webcam, and most cameras around that price might only do 4K 30

[JoshRazauskas]

You’re so lucky to have gotten one! I freaked out when I saw this camera was coming out because I have CP and am wheelchair bound so all I’ve ever been able to use are webcams because I physically can’t do a normal camera setup myself so this finally would’ve been a great camera for me but it’s already out of stock!

[jchase]

Wonderful review - thank you. Appreciate how deep you go here. I bought an Elgato Facecam Pro, have not opened it yet and now I don't think I will. I have been searching everywhere for a webcam that produce bokeh effect, using a mac. This isn't it unfortunately.

[SodiPopMedia]

Thanks for the super thorough review. I have one on order. Currently use a Canon SL3, but the 4k is cropped like the m50. My current setup I’ll need to zoom in and out, seems like this would be an easy and retain quality for recordings.
Also with my Canon I have to flick it on every time and it moves the camera, so I have to spend time fixing the angle as well. I also like that I can control in camera setting on an app and not have to flip my camera around to adjust stuff like ISO, etc.
I guess I won’t know until I start using it, but it seems like a nice option.

[SergeyFM_en]

13:27 It's just a crazy amount of magenta. How is it even acceptable.
BTW I have "old" facecam, thought to replace it, but no.

[Vildred-dlls]

nice review!! very detailed, thank you so much sir

[Marvolzz]

I have the FACE CAM PRO. But when I try to use the Blur background at 4k 60 it scales is back to 1080p 60. This happens when I’m using Streamlabs Obs. Is it limited to 1080p 60 for Virtual cam option in obs?

[NextUnicorn]

We're recording a remote video podcast at 1080p 30fps. In that scenario, do you think it's worth upgrading from the Facecam to the Facecam Pro? Thanks.

[Laurie_]

Thanks for the insightful video.

I currently have an Elgato Facecam but I'm struggling with 1080p recording. Once I zoom in it becomes very muddy. I think my lighting is fine. I have 2 Elgato Key Light Air.

There are currently good specials in South Africa. You can get the Canon M50 Mk2 for about R9 000. I want to record videos at 1080p 60fps. I can't find the Elgato Facecam Pro in South Arica yet but I assume it will be over R6000.

Do you think the image quality of the Canon M50 Mk2 is fairly better than the Facecam Pro at 1080p 60fps?

[DejayClayton]

Looks like contrast and saturation could be improved out of the box.

[rogalaphotography]

Is this camera even out yet? I just googled it and it doesn’t show up!

[juanete]

Hello. Which one is better, Facecam Pro vs Insta 360 Link vs Avermedia PW515?

[JPsTechReviews]

Facecam looks really good but the R7 is so nice and clean.

[Stall]

There it go . Lol I've been waiting for this video since they released it.

[TheNitpicker]

Is he blind or what? He's saying one thing even though what were seing in this video shows something entirely different. He says reh Facecam Pro looks better, just right, even though it looks outright trash. But his own video is quite flat and overexposed, so....
Why does the Pro looks so totally over the top pink even though he doesn't seem to see it at all. The pink background light might be a reason but it can't be the sole reason.
I can't stand reviews that just tell the viewer what they ASSUME instead of what's actually fact
