insta360 Link 2C

[BlackWizard]

Hi
I want to know people opinion about this camera. I use logitech brio , but is loosing sharpness because its pretty old and i wanted buy new one. I was thinking about Elgato Facecam MK2, but i found on reddit comparison to insta360 Link 2C and people were saying that is better. I saw also positive reviews on YT - camera has very good microphone, quality and also following face, but is really cheap and always when something is too cheap i wondering why Maybe anyone has this camera or is good in reading parameters and can give me opinion.

Given your priorities—sharpness, a good microphone, and face-tracking, I’d recommend the Insta360 Link 2C. It’ll give you a noticeable upgrade in image quality over your Brio, has the mic you need, and the tracking features are a bonus for streaming or calls. The Elgato is great for streamers who already have a separate mic and the right GPU, but it might not meet all your needs as well as the Insta360 does. I hope this helps.

I don't know about this new camera you mention, but I get a clearer better image with the logitech c920, than I do with the Brio I bought last year. It's not just me who has noticed either, I regularly ask viewers which one is clearer, while both are plugged in. So I can toggle back and forth. They always choose the c920. Without me telling which is which.

I do find with all logitech camera's, that I have to use logitune app, to bump up the sharpness setting also though. Which is different from the Logicapture app, yet easy to get the two confused.
The default setting is very fuzzy IMO, and I like it at 164 or above.. But even with that change, the c920 outperforms the Brio, for clarity.

ETA; I recently did a collab clip with another of the models here. His camera on his 6 year old phone, out performed both of my Logitech camera's for clarity. By far.

Helpful information.

Looks like the new MXBRIO also does 4K at 60fps, rather than capping out at 30fps.

I've had 7 C920s. The cable always craps out for me first, but if I use the app features to turn off autofocus, its a good camera. I just can't get it to last over a year. Had 2 Brios. First had an autofocus issue, where it took a minute plus sometimes to refocus, which was not good on a site where I charge by the minute. Both Brios I had, did not have as clear or good an image as the C920. They do kind of slim you down and make imperfections easier to hide though, which impressed me at first, but ultimately I'd prefer a clearer image. Especially for twice the price. But I think overall I would just like a better camera period, so I appreciate your information you shared.
