Hi! I'm Chris Gardner, Your Tech Coach giving you Practical Help for Your Digital Life® since 1996. I have many more tips in other articles I’ve written about on this blog, such as Up your Zoom Game and Fun with Zoom Even after years of everybody doing video conferencing due to the pandemic, many folks forget to mute their microphones, and ambient noise leaks in.
Use a simple background behind you if possible.Having the microphone close to your lips helps the streaming app to block out other unwanted noise and makes you sound significantly better to your streaming participants. You can use a fancy microphone like the Yeti Blue line, or a simple lavalier microphone. The built-in microphone in your webcam is decent, but having a microphone nearer your lips is always going to be better. Also, the Brio line and the StreamCam connect via USB-C (and have higher requirements for the power of your computer), the others use the USB-A connection type.īoth Logitech Capture and Logi Tune have zoom controls and let you apply basic adustments (like white balance and brightness), and simple video filters. For field of view, 60 degrees is better for individuals, 90 degrees is better for groups of people (such as sitting around a conference table). There are a couple of Logitech webcams that are different, such as the Brio 4K Pro, which as a 4k webcam can be adjusted to either 60, 78 or 90 degrees while still giving sharp 1080 resolution, and the C930s, which has a fixed, 90 degree field of view. I should mention that most of the webcams at Logitech have a fixed, 78 degree field of view, which is fine for all purposes.
Logi Tune’s list says “and more” so I think there’s a good chance that it will support your webcam. I believe that either will work with your webcam, although the Logitech website has lists of supported webcams for Logitech Capture and Logi Tune – click to open those pages and scroll down to Specs & Details to see if your specific camera is on the list. I would still recommend you place the camera as close to your face as practical, since digital zoom does make things fuzzier the more you zoom in. Both have a zoom slider so you can digitally zoom in as much as you like.
LOGI CAPTURE BACKGROUND SOFTWARE
Depending on which model of webcam you have (and what else you want to do), you can use either the Logitech Capture software or the new Logi Tune software. I get that Zoom and Teams have the capability for virtual backgrounds and blurring your background, but what I’d like to do is zoom in my webcam or otherwise narrow in on myself. I have a Logitech webcam and use it for Zoom, Microsoft Teams and GoToWebinar. Webcam Tip – Zoom and Field of Vision: a reader asks…
