Logitech BRIO 100 101 webcam | Is it any good at just $40?

[@DeployJeremy]

What do you think of the Logitech BRIO 100 series? Did you like seeing the silent install commands for distributing the Logi Tune MSI? I like this webcam at $40, but do think the Lenovo Essential FHD camera for around $30 is slightly better. This one works with Logi Tune though.

[@DEXXXO]

Hey Jeremy a got this Cam this Week iz wherry Nice Small and Good Quality , but it has one little Problem on Windows 8.1 64 Bit it Uses the UVC driver from Ms and its from 2006 . This Driver only works great with Brio 100 whenn you Deactivate Fastboot on Windows . The Question where are the LOGITECH propetary Drivers for this Web Cam , on the logitech site they have only tune and capture soft but i need the Drivers thaks for Info

Thank you for this

[@SharonDorfman]

Great review!!

[@DeployJeremy]

Thank you!

[@SameeraPerera-m2p]

What camera were you using when you were doing the rest of the recording? The quality difference between that and the Brio is quite significant.

[@DeployJeremy]

It's a Sony ZV-E10 with Viltrox 23mm F1.4 lens

[@jessieball6195]

@@DeployJeremy in other words, REALLY expensive gear.

[@DeployJeremy]

@@jessieball6195 well, really expensive is subjective, it's not a RED camera and Neumann microphone. I'd say it's mid-tier. The ZV-E10 is one of the cheapest APS-C cameras with clean HDMI out and the Viltrox lens is cheap as far as glass goes, but yes, more expensive than any webcam. I did a video on getting an APS-C mirrorless camera set up for just a little more than an expensive webcam ($220 at the time) here kzbin.info/www/bejne/n2PamnuKZtx1i7c

[@barneyjack]

I use the brio 100 with Logi Options+ software and it lets me have almost as much dialing in as a facecam including ISO speed!! one of the best 40.00 webcams I have owned! I use it as a secondary webcam on my livestreaming!

[@DeployJeremy]

That's a good tip. I just tried that and it's curious that the 100 is the only one that seems to work with this software.

[@tylertoney02]

Can you zoom out on this camera mine is super zoomed in and I can’t figure out how to zoom it out

[@mitten5566]

Would I be able to blur the background with the logitech brio 101 1080

[@Nakopal_Nasobiral]

to me, it has some problems with sharpness. The sound and color are fine after the tuning. Thanks!

[@thecozyconstellation]

amazing review! thanks

[@DeployJeremy]

Thanks for taking the time to comment. Glad it helped

[@jessieball6195]

After your tweaking of settings, picture looks ok, but audio still sounds a little off.

[@DeployJeremy]

You can't really fix the mic audio. The filters in OBS or others can adjust tonality a bit, but it's the echo and distance from your mouth that you're fighting with webcams.

[@Mae-im7nj]

Can I still use a headset as my microphone while using the webcam?

[@DeployJeremy]

Yes, you just need to make sure your speaker and microphone are set to your headset

[@lunara.araujo]

can someone please just tell me how to install the software . nothing is working

[@tasminscrochetcreations]

I am also having the same problem with the software

[@DeployJeremy]

On Windows? Can you try this troubleshooter from Microsoft? support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/fix-problems-that-block-programs-from-being-installed-or-removed-cca7d1b6-65a9-3d98-426b-e9f927e1eb4d

[@lucass.paniagua4682]

Could I use this webcam to show my ID through it? I need a webcam to take online exams, the proctor is going to ask me to show mi ID and he must be able to read it clearly. So I need one that can focus texts.

[@DeployJeremy]

It's a fixed focus camera, so with a driver's license you may need to get the distance just right. I think it should work with a steady hand and enough light.

[@kenjenningsiii8058]

would you take the brio over the c920?

[@DeployJeremy]

It's not bad for the price, but the C920 with the right lighting still holds its own. That said, this is cheaper unless you have a C920 already or find a used one.

[@Baby_gang999]

i like it

[@rph69er]

Hi Jeremy thanks for the video. I m looking for a cheap decent webcam and my Q is can I take snap shots with this 101 and logi tune? My old c 270 just died on me and it would.

[@rph69er]

Or do you know of one that will? in the same price range?

[@DeployJeremy]

Yes the Camera app in Windows or Photo Booth in macOS will take still photos with this webcam. Just make sure you have decent lighting.

[@rph69er]

Thanks Jeremy as I was looking through other things I realized that I accidentally had uninstalled and deleted my windows camera and it was nowhere to be seen. I reinstalled it now and I've got it back to use with the Brio 101 that I've got coming tomorrow. Thank you. Also should I download the Logitech tune app with it

[@MarcMirelesfsdogs08]

Is it able to zoom in and out?

[@jessieball6195]

You have to adjust the zoom through Logitune.

[@AlbertWards]

This camera is compatible with Xbox Series S

[@DeployJeremy]

I don't know to be honest. It works as a standard UVC camera with built in Windows, macOS and Linux webcam drivers, so I suspect it is, but I don't have an Xbox to verify

[@navaneeth2820]

Is this good for a laptop ?. Because we keep laptops way closer for video calls but this camera have very tight FOV. What would you suggest C505e or brio 100

[@DeployJeremy]

I'm not a fan of the 58 degree FOV to be honest. It has to be far away, which also comprises the audio pickup. I like the 300 series, too.

[@zerobomberman0459]

How is it in a dark room ?

[@DeployJeremy]

It's a bit noisy in low light. This is a budget camera with a relatively small sensor and you can see the noise as I called out in my background to simulate low light.

[@kenshinbattousai374]

God forbid the zomboids at Logitech use one goddamn piece of software accross their products.

[@DeployJeremy]

Most things work in LogiTune, so it's better than it was compared to the days of Logi Capture and the Camera Settings app. As a former device admin in a business environment, I wouldn't want to install G-Hub on hundreds of managed PCs.

[@asturiasceltic3183]

You look jaundiced with the brio

[@Wanderlustus]

For some reason Logitune isn't recognizing my Brio 101. It's securely plugged into the USB port. Odd. Hope I didn't get a bum Brio. :< >

[@Trevor-Bobyk]

Dude, your white balance is way off!

[@cesaretontini9641]

Is it possible to install the camera on a boom arm or mount of sort? If so, how? thank you for the help.

[@DeployJeremy]

@cesaretontini9641 yes, you might need a 3/8 to 1/4 20 adapter depending on if your boom arm includes 1/4 20 option. I've done this. The cheap $20 parallel rod style arms actually keep the camera level, too, like a mini jib arm. I used it in this review kzbin.info/www/bejne/kKmWpaB_ftp_pK8 go to 18:58. Edit: I found the adapter I bought amzn.to/4fEEjRl

[@tasminscrochetcreations]

Hi there I recently bought this webcam. It is my first time using a Webcam. I can't get passed the templates page. The webcam is connected via the cable and I can see the camera on the home page but when I go to select a template and a trigger I can't add the webcam to Bluetooth . It is connected to BT with audio according to my BT settings on my laptop. I can't do anything on this page where I need to select BT connection or a reciever which I don't have. I also wanted to know since it's my first time using a webcam. Can I record from the Options+ software or do I need to use a recording software for that. I have tried everything to try and get this Camera to work or to connect the way that it should, I've tried tutorials, searching it, going on the Logitech website and seeing if there is any info there. I had even used other Logitech software's you have available on their website. I have also lodged 2 support tickets yesterday and still haven't recieved anything. So with that being said, I hope I can get some help here.

[@DeployJeremy]

I'm sorry, the templates page in which app? I'm not following where you are using this, why are you trying to connect via Bluetooth instead of USB? The webcam doesn't have wireless Bluetooth or wifi functionality

[@z3centurion277]

Thanks🎉

[@anoushikamehan9004]

Does it work with iPad pro? I just bought one and it's not working..How to connect logitune with webcam ..the one that I have downloaded shows only earbuds option.

[@DeployJeremy]

I don't have an iPad to test with, but it looks like iPadOS 17 and newer should support it as a UVC webcam. It wouldn't work with Logi Tune though, which AFAIK only has versions for Windows and macOS

[@shivangisharma354]

What is the difference between logitech Brio and 270 ? Does 270 have autofocus like if we want to show something on camera?

[@DeployJeremy]

There are massive differences between the C270 and Brio 100. Main one is the maximum resolution, C270 is a 1280x720 camera and Brio 100 is 1920x1080. Both are 30 frames per second. Image and audio quality in my opinion is also better on the Brio 100. It has a sliding privacy shutter. Both are USB-A. Brio 100 also comes in 3 colors, black, white and pink. Both are fixed focus cameras.

[@SergSpace]

@@DeployJeremy 10:06 What's the purpose of 1080p if image is not even sharp?

[@DeployJeremy]

@@SergSpace Despite the fixed focus lens, it's still going to be a better image than most 720p webcams. A 720p mirrorless or DSLR camera would be superior to this (and many 1080, even 4k webcams), but we're still talking about a budget webcam

[@SergSpace]

​@@DeployJeremy I went with HP 320 FHD. It looks better on some youtuber review with quality, white balance and mic is super. Did you try it? I haven't received it yet.

[@DeployJeremy]

@@SergSpace I haven't tried that one. Will look into it.

[@hgiang1212]

Does it support Windows Hello?

[@DeployJeremy]

No, only the 4K BRIO has Windows Hello support as far as I know.

[@DEXXXO]

Wherry GOOD Quality and Mic Clarity Top 😘

[@DeployJeremy]

Thanks. Don't know if I would say Top though. It's $40

[@IzludeTingel]

c920 and brio 100 are a no-go. Get the brio 4k ultra, even if you don't use 4k (it has 720 settings). we're done with bad webcams, this is 2024, not 2016. it's time we all upgraded.

[@DeployJeremy]

Except the Brio 4k makes everything look yellow, despite producing an exceptionally sharp image. I'd actually go with the MX Brio now if you're looking in the $100-200 price range.

[@Ihatedayslikethis1]

Which one would you pick for use on a work environment where software installation is restricted (i couldn't install any of the logi apps to improve image)? I'm checking the brio 100, 300 and Logi 505. Thank you for the informative video ❤

[@DeployJeremy]

They are all UVC cameras, so you can use the controls in Windows Settings. Windows 11 has more than Windows 10 typically for UVC cameras. The Logi Tune app is designed for commercial use, too. You might be able to get your IT department to put it in their approved apps list and on the enterprise catalog for self installation using Company Portal (Intune) or Software Center (Configuration Manager).

[@Ihatedayslikethis1]

@@DeployJeremy thank you very much 🥰
