For those who are wondering. There are USB type C to Type A converters, but make sure you use their cable with the adapter. The reason why they usually launch it with these cables is because if you have e the port, for sure you have the USB 3 version that can hold the bandwidth. Plugging in the camera in an non USB 3 port will result in either the camera not having enough power, or not having enough bandwidth to send the image (remember you're sending power + 70 8megapixel images PER SECOND thought a cable).

Since it works with UVC, you should be bale to have multiple of them at the same time, not clear if the camera hub software will support multiple cameras though

this is a deal breaker for me... my streaming PC doesn't have a USB type c socket, can I replace the cable with a USB-c to USB 3?

Honestly, a very good video, thank you. My frustration with all the videos I have seen is trying to figure out how to actually record.

Hello, I bought this webcam, but my computer does not have a USB Type C port.

What kind of cable should I buy and will the cable I buy reduce the quality?

[BreonNagy]

Is there a limit on how many facecam pros you can use on one computer?

[bilekgucutv]

🤔I just tried to place an order. The list price is £299 but then on check out, with free shipping, the price as £359. I am in the UK. Is it the case that the free shipping really costs £61?

I just bought the camera yesterday but I realized that my computer doesn’t have usb-c port to plug this cable . Do you know if this camera comes with adapter ?

[vinnylovesjesus]

Is it possible to use multiple face cam pros in a single stream maybe with some sort of switcher? I’d like to use these for a podcast show with multiple (3) different camera angles

[juanete]

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

[edferrigancoaching]

Ive watched several "how to" facecam Pro videos and not one tells me how to record with it!

[ColinBurtonPlays]

Do you also need Cam Link if using with game capture card/ software such as HD60S?

[emmanuelortega]

Hey their, I have a question, do u need like a stand for the face cam when u put it in top of ur monitor or no?

[bilalahmedwrites]

Can you connect it to a USB C hub (that then connects with my MacBook)?

[MrBolterrr]

Im getting a Flashing Red LED Indicator. Camera turns on, is fully updated, cam software fully updated. Dont understand. Please help

[StephenWorth]

Any chance that the effects will ever work with M1 MacBooks?

[kortslay]

Am I able to use a usb type a to usb type c cable for this webcam if plugged into a 3.2 port?

[invikari]

Face Cam Pro focus just bugged out and we can't even use the most up to date Camera Hub with the most up to date product.
Blinking Red LED, Focus refuses to work now properly after randomly doing a room tour by swiveling the camera on the mount.
