Could the Insta360 Link 2C Be the Perfect 4K Static Webcam? (unsponsored test)

[@DeployJeremy]

This is a great static webcam and the microphone array does a nice job, too (but I'd still recommend a dedicated mic closer to your mouth). Where to find it: amzn.to/3zOGD7Y

Have been waiting for you to review this! I'm looking forward to trying this model out. I was especially glad to see you mention how it differed from the previous model in terms of image quality.

[@DeployJeremy]

Thank you. This one was impressive as far as webcams go. Just those two nitpicks with the app multi-monitor thing and 30fps for all resolutions limit.

[@b455h34d]

Thanks for the review! It looks like many Insta360 and Obsbot reviews are actually sponsored - offering one or another brand coupons in a video description. It would be great if you do a comparison with Elgato Facecam MK.2 - they are in the same price range. Or a best mid-range priced webcam video with Elgato Facecam MK.2, Insta360 Link 2c, Obsbot Meet 2 and probably Logitech Brio MX (which falls behind as we can see in reviews, but is available everywhere). I couldn't find such comparison video on KZbin.

[@DeployJeremy]

Thanks. These are good suggestions. The mid range is a little tricky, because you're mixing 1080p60 cameras with 4K cameras. I honestly use most 4k cameras at 1080 for online meetings, so it doesn't bug me, but the audience tends to draw a line with 4k vs. not 4k. At least that's my observation.

[@antonio.carloslan]

Thanks for the content. But it looks like you recorded in full HD and not 4k. Other reviews on KZbin seemed to me to have better quality than the recorded image. Did you really record in 4k? (Brazilian Portuguese - translated by Google)

[@DeployJeremy]

I recorded the Insta360 Link 2C clips in 4K. The Sony a6400 primary camera was 1080p 60fps. I edited and produced at 4K

[@antonio.carloslan]

@@DeployJeremy Obrigado!!!

[@TalkNRock]

Hey Jeremy? I bought the camera after your suggestion but I have the following problem. I noticed that after a short use the camera gets hot. Is it normal or I just have a defective product? If I don't unplug it, it doesn't cool off completely. If my pc is turned off but the camera plugged in, it gets hot.Do you face similar issues? Thanks man!

[@DeployJeremy]

@@TalkNRockhmm. I didn't notice it getting hot, especially when not in use. Many cameras will heat up a bit while they are sending video, but not when idle.

[@neiles335]

I wa considering the Logitech Mx Brio but I think you've changed my mind... thanks 😊

[@keithkeith2106]

Sorry I am confused. Did you say that the Insta360 app does not allow you to adjust brightness , temperature, background etc ?

[@ifzarik]

Does this camera turns on & record with using App while out somewhere in car away from pc or computers?

[@DeployJeremy]

Not from what I've seen. The app doesn't auto launch or install a service that would. You could program something to do that with a scheduled task running on a timer and some automation scripting pretty easily.

[@ifzarik]

@ really appreciate the detailed feedback.. liking your channel, keep up the great work!!

[@MickyOldham]

Which of the two would you say is a better web cam if you are not looking at audio and which one is better if you consider auto? 1. Insta360 Link 2 2. Logitech MX Brio Ultra HD 4K

[@DeployJeremy]

@@MickyOldham they are pretty equal if you adjust images. But I'd give the Insta360 Link 2 a slight edge and it has a gimbal.

[@chronospeedster]

I'm very confused: on the official site they claim this cam support 60fps and now i discovered it's not. Am I missing something???

[@DeployJeremy]

@@chronospeedster It might do 60fps if you set it in OBS, but you can't set it to 60fps in their controller settings app (as of when I tested and filmed this).

[@DeployJeremy]

Confirmed in OBS - it does 60fps at 1080p

[@chronospeedster]

@@DeployJeremy Yeah i tested too cause i bought the 2C version, thank you anyway Jeremy. This cam is really amazing.

[@keshav8497]

subscribing to watch your comparison between meet 2 and link 2c.

[@DeployJeremy]

Thank you! I just published the OBSBOT Meet 2 video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bIKkqY2enbl0l6s I'm thinking about doing a "$3 vs. $300" type video featuring these and other cameras, too.

[@keshav8497]

@@DeployJeremy that would be great, none of the sponsered creators would do that !

[@kayrok]

Have you checked the Elgato Facecam Pro?

[@DeployJeremy]

I haven't yet. I couldn't justify the price with its initial reviews, but I have seen videos that the problems have been addressed, so I may try to find one to test.

[@kayrok]

@@DeployJeremy I just watched a video from Senpai Gaming and the fact that is 4k 60fps has blown my mind away. His video is entirely with it, maybe you can check it out. Thanks for the reply!

[@trixr4kids693]

This or the Meet 2?

[@DeployJeremy]

This by a small margin. I prefer the OBSBot software though.

Hey Man, loved your analysis but a suggestion, please wear more hats and don't show similar/same headwear through out the video, it should be more suave and you should put more high and low hats to engage audience, and add more top hat/fez/bowler. this will help your video to have more engagement and ask chapeauphiles for their opinion and what they felt while looking to the hats and about the millinery, loved your content and hope you grow more and more

[@DeployJeremy]

@@bericht thanks, but I never wore a hat in this. I don't own a hat.

[@saikrishnapenugonda2716]

Hey Man, loved your analysis but a suggestion, please be more active and don't show similar/same energy through out the video, it should be more racy and you should put more high and low words to engage audience, and add more camera angles/crops/cuts. this will help your video to have more engagement and ask users for their opinion and what they felt while listening to the mic and about the clips, loved your content and hope you grow more and more

[@DeployJeremy]

Thanks for your analysis, Sai, and taking the time to write it up. I agree with everything you're saying, but for me it's also a balance of time. I hadn't posted a proper video in a few weeks, but you're right, I could have done more.

[@ghostgums]

I disagree with Sai. Don’t try and follow some KZbin ‘formula’. Make videos in your own style. And please for gods sake don’t ask viewers what they think of your mic and ‘clips’, haha. Thanks for the video mate! Going for a 2c myself.

[@Hugh_Jaynus_00]

Yeah. And put some neon lights in back for when you dance around…
