Logitech Mevo: A Portable Powerful Multicam Studio

[@toadlguy]

Wow, it records in Stunning 1080p for just $550 a piece. 😮

[@VRcation]

Right? What nonsense is this...

[@Tore_Lund]

It's a pyramid scheme. Only way to get them is making a video on YT telling how amazing they are.

[@crooker2]

The power of this camera is the livestream multicam switching. Plus it has wireless ndi built on. Sure it's not 4k... But that's not the point. This isn't a dslr cam. It's a live streaming cam,with ndi or live switching features...and who streams at 4k?

[@serktv6231]

@@crooker2 but the quality is like a potatocam....look at those colors and details look smudged and soft even though they got studio lighting. An iPhone or Samsung does better 1080p.....I get the concept, but the quality is meh

[@toolsontech]

If they did 4k30 so I could use the recording for basic youtube video production then sure, the price would be okay. Was kind of hoping for a 3 camera setup that would challenge the new webcams from elgato, dji and razor. Let's not forget that if you buy this you want that 4k so you can also make high quality scrops for shorts/insta/tiktok etc... So overpriced and for a market that no longer exists.

[@LaMaaanta007]

The color grading in this video is on another level

[@VynZography]

Wow you can really see the drop in quality when you switch between these and your proper camera.

[@imark7777777]

I've been using these things for before they were Logitech. They really became highly useful when they added in NDI support as I bring them into OBS and stream out of that as I am also bringing in a laptop from the presenter and upcoming events slides on another laptop. I've gone with the ethernet adapters and POE makes powering everything so easy and I don't have to worry about Wi-Fi Except for on the controlling tablets which were cheap and finicky. I haven't toyed around with the multi cam app very much but it's come a long way in 2 years. It would be nice if they allowed controlling multiple cameras in one app. And I would love to see a second revision of these with NDI, 4K sensor and slightly wider lens like the second generation as I think that would be really good for wide shots.

[@paulomateusguerra]

This is great... I just think that the video quality drops so much with these but the practicality is dope! I would use it!

[@tosvus]

For the price, they don't seem good enough in 2023. You can get name brand 4k action cameras for less than this. I get the use case is a bit different and perhaps 4k is hard to do wireless etc, but at least it should have 1" sensors instead of basically being a fancy webcam. Heck, I use Sony ZV-1 for my work zoom calls because I couldn't find a webcam that does a good enough job for my tastes.. My ZV-1 came in around $500 as well, and livestreams over USB. Not sure if you could have multiple ones on one pc though. The concept is great, but either it needs better image and sound quality for the price, or a considerably lower price.

[@CharlesSchiele]

Hey Tyler ! I also have Blue Sonas for my videos, I just bought angled XLR as well, you can actually unscrew and twist the way it’s angled to make it more tidy and aligned ;)

[@stalman]

Oh no way! That would solve everything. Do you mean unscrew the plug on the mic or the cable can be twisted somehow?

[@CharlesSchiele]

@@stalman I think it’s something you can do on all XLR cables but don’t quote me on that haha I was excited to get mine, plugged it and it looked like yours, I was so disappointed hahaha So I unscrewed by hand the bottom plastic part of the tip, then there was a small plate to remove which gave me access to changing the angle. Once set I just had to put the two pieces back in place, and it works. :)

[@stalman]

All the promo photos for the mic have the cable going the correct direction but I can’t find any online that go they way. Hopefully I can adjust it!

[@stalman]

It worked! Thanks so much

[@MichaelSchmidt_UrbnPxl]

the system idea/concept and "ease of use" seem good... but sadly, those sponsored videos don't talk about the rather poor video quality of those webcams ;) or what "preamp" one should use to use the "external" mics since those preamps are not from that very brand ;) ... on the other hand, like I said, the concept and the app and such is a nice ideas but the cameras should be a bit better ... I think even en iPhone 13 and up would produce better video quality when used for streaming (but a bit more tricky to set up for a live stream)

[@stalman]

It’s true, sponsored videos mean I cover a little less but in their defence, ill also point out that you could only buy two iPhone 13s for the price of these three cameras, and you still won’t have all the functionality. In terms of preamps, I was using the Focusrite Vocaster 2 in these samples and I highly recommend it, great value and quality.

[@medialex78]

You said it exactly. Ease of use may be the main reason to buy one of these triple camera sets. Most annoying for me is the lack of any kind of optical zoom. This means that you will have to bring these cameras as near as possible to your subject, what may not always be easy. Nearly every smartphone does the job better or at least as good as these cameras, that are at the end of the day "single purpose devices" to record and/or stream (multi camera) footage. Their asking price may also buy you three smartphones that you and your family and/or friends can use all day long and shoot amazing multi camera videos with in combination with one of countless apps available. Therefore there is no risk to have them lying around if you may loose interest in filmmaking.

[@crooker2]

I would call the quality of these cameras... Acceptable for cheap, small sensor cameras. Fine for livestreaming.

[@crooker2]

@@medialex78 you're not wrong. Cellphones do a great job as well. Especially if you use the NDI app. I like the form factor... But I use cell phones for multicam live streaming as well.

[@continentmediaLLC]

​@@crooker2how do you use cellphones for multicam live streaming?

[@darrinlalla9008]

Dude... Mevo should pay you!!! You just cleared up so many details that are missed on their channels.

[@JosueRodriguez08]

Lol, they are paying him wtf

[@danieldonaldson8634]

Interesting how many bad reviews these get on Amazon, compared to your product placement based, incentivized review. Did you not notice the issues - like difficult setup, which is what I most associate Logitech with (I'm trying to get a gaming keyboard to work with a mini on Ventura, and after a week still no joy), or reports of dead batteries, if one camera crashes, they all go down, requirements for studio lighting to get decent image quality, etc etc. It's true they get a lot of positive reviews as well - but honestly I think you learn more about a product from detailed bad reviews. What's your take on this?

[@crooker2]

I use these on a regular basis for love streaming over ndi. Low light? Well... It's not a large sensor cam... So why are you live streaming in low light? This is great for church broadcasts or weddings or quick and dirty multicam streaming to a single streaming source. I have 6 of them, and I think they're great. Easy to setup once you get the hang of it. I use mine a lot.

[@JaYoeNation]

for that price... the quality of the image should be better. I was excited by the thumbnail looking for a podcasting setup for a in a van podcast.

[@huyked]

Finally a review with the actual footage and setup using the cameras. Geez! Thank you!

[@ConnorLipke]

$1000 for 1080p that looks 360p. Love that.

[@pieman3141]

Good idea, and it seems easier than three DSLRs and an AV switcher, but the image quality needs a LOT more work. They seriously look terrible.

[@Flyit37075]

like to see these in low light setting, say for music video production, indie film production ? and I imagine the audio sync function in premier pro would sync them all together for post work.

[@crooker2]

These are NOT film production cameras. They're not designed for that. They are live streaming cameras. Inexpensive, small sensor, 1080p cams. If you're producing music videos, you use much better equipment.

[@timmaltby7798]

Can these be used like NDI cameras on the network so I can use them in OBS or vMix?

[@prspktvmusic]

Is there a way to get these cameras talking to a computer running OBS as an example?

[@carlosq00]

this solution would make multi-cam actually mobile to where we can operate alone if we have to...Thanks for sharing

[@ajlakanen]

The price is just unreal (that is, too high). The idea is cool though.

[@JoshFryer]

I would love to see if/how this integrates into an OBS setup. We do a lot of meetings and town halls at work that this setup could benefit from IF it works with OBS. 🙏

[@alxzr]

Following. Interested as well

[@TaylorThomasVideo]

Same

[@charlyray]

Key point

[@crooker2]

These will seamlessly integrate with OBS over NDI. I use 5 of them in a Vmix production every week. It's best to have a dedicated WiFi router to connect them to to ensure you have proper bandwidth.

[@TaylorThomasVideo]

@@crooker2 NDI?! amazing. that's makes the higher cost worth it for an all in one device for future scaling productions

[@xjet]

Do these cameras have an adjustable shutter speed? At 24FPS (as in this video) the high shutter speed makes the footage very stoccato due to the lack of motion blur.

[@Planet9_music]

Can you plug a USBc mic into these?

[@passioncorners]

What kind of microphone are you using, haven't seen that one before.

[@chriscuthbertson]

Is there a windows app for them?

[@suncokreta]

Thanks for this review. How are these cameras in low light, example in chrurch?

[@rayman121985]

Love it. So you need an XLR to 3.5 to connect to those Logitech mics you are using to go int othe Logitech Mevo camera?

[@MelismaticMelody]

Ooh I need to start saving, this is unreal

[@LyndonPatrickSmith]

Looks like a cool setup. Can you set the software so audio source is controlled separately from video switching?

[@kavierocks]

Headphone input jack?

[@clueken13]

Thank you for the video…much appreciated 😊

[@jeanpaulbadjo]

what microphones are those?

[@OmirVelazquez]

Hi Tyler, awesome product! Btw, the title says MEMO, not MeVo

[@stalman]

Thanks for pointing it out, hopefully I changed it before anyone other than you watched 😂

@@stalman it did

[@rogeriogomesosorio4755]

Well, The idea is good… however, 1080p doesn’t give good enough video quality (it should be 4K with a bigger sensor) and I still have to see how does the camera behave on a lower light condition…

[@nixonnelson5181]

is there a way to change the lipos if you need to someday

[@TheHokemon]

Very cool idea and the implementation is typically top notch by Logitech. The image tho. Yikes.

[@delukxy]

For interviews like this, say, who wants to see a pair of huge mics a foot from the faces. Who wants to see mics at all? Maybe a small conference mic in the middle of the table? A pair tiny clip-ons hidden away?

[@stalman]

Sure, you can do that if you prefer. The majority of the podcast audience are audio only, so that is my priority. A show that is more video focused could use lavs

[@chriscuthbertson]

What is the use case for plugging headphones into them? ;)

[@MichaelBabich]

I wonder whether the camera works with USB microphones like Rode Video Mic GO 2 to connect it not via TRS input but via USB.

[@dreammix9430]

What I'm curious about is how would this interface with zoom to do Zoom casting things

[@tshidikhunou]

Can you use them with eCamm Live?

[@theWebmasterify]

$1000+ for basically three synced webcams and some mixer software sounds like a pretty bad deal to me. Also sad to see that there was no mention at all about the poor video quality of the Mevos

[@ButchNews]

Finally. No excuses for not putting some fancy dancing into a video. About average cost for lowest multi-cam cost but looks pretty idiot proof. Wut? You're still here. Longer retention rate than most.

[@viniciusmoura9105]

Hey, is it possible to use this camera kit to make animations, like those which are made capturing the actors' movement with various cameras positioned at different angles from the subject?

[@stalman]

I have no idea 😅 maybe?

[@DonovanMediaCenter]

We have our business school using Cinamaker…it’s OK. Thus looks better, but costlier. Seems both systems are reliant upon strong Wi-Fi, which can be a downfall (or can it link up otherwise?)

[@KaioshinAemi]

please make 4K version, i really want to buy but i’m waiting for the 4K version

[@starkilla12345]

I think micwise RE320's a better bet or if want to go cheaper sm57 mics are hard to beat til you get to a really high price point.

[@matt-lang]

Honestly the quality vs price doesn't make sense to me; you could get a set of GoPros for less money that can record at a higher quality. It's especially stark how bad the cameras look compared to your main one. They lose sharpness, have difficulty with the lighting conditions, and only have mediocre audio quality. Not sure what the market is, here. Maybe for streaming it could work, but I don't know many streamers that are changing cameras often enough for it to be worthwhile...

[@t0nyxgq]

The first clip with Jordan doesn't seem to have great image quality. On the phone is good but even on my 15" 1080 display, it was very grainy. The second set of videos with the woman is sharper but still a tad grainy.

[@Ootini4]

The image quality is meh. If they had a version with a 4/3 sensor or even a 1" sensor they might look better 🤷‍♂

[@stalman]

They would definitely look better but also cost twice as much. I’d rather use higher end version too

[@ethangilbertmedia]

over a grand for 3 of em? could easily grab 3x sony a6000s with lenses used for that price.

[@thejohnnybrooks]

[@ashyouknow7420]

I'm 100% sure you can get much better image quality from a $500 or even a $400 phone. Plus you know it would function as a phone as well.

[@OpenMind3000]

As all the other comments already said: cool Idea, but image quality: horrible.... It is a 2023 camera that looks like a 50 Dollar Webcam from 2017.... The Insta 360 Link is a better solution if you want a flexible Webcam Set Up....

[@TundeEszlari]

[@ArtmorProduction]

Is this cam broadcast NDI signal, is anyone can confirm about the NDI capability?

[@kjvelarde]

you can do this with multiple cheap webams and OBS .

[@X1014real]

[@GolfDuff]

I have this camera, and it looks horrible. Zooming into the picture makes it blurry and insanly crappy.

[@cannotkazi]

[@MyInstantSearch]

the video quality for $550 a piece is just bad.

[@dennyawright21]

The quality is good enough to me. If they make it easy to setup and work with then they would be worth it. If not then not. Also if audio is on point, 95% of people don’t care if it’s in 42K extra reality quality. Lol

[@Elemino]

The only question I have remaining... can you connect them for video using USB-C?

[@theguy3279]

[@RobertXPhotography]

$1400 for the 3 pack. Think you can buy an IPhone 11 for under $300 and record in 4k. I'm sure you can get three iphone x for under $700.

[@steve-adams]

"Live stream and record in stunning 1080p HD resolution with crisp, detailed imaging" This is genuinely bizarre to me. The quality isn't great, even for 1080p. The price is staggering for such run-of-the-mill webcam footage.

[@Adventures_EC]

what a price

[@DerSchaddan]

Seems a bit expensive for what is essentially a webcam with a powerbank and a few cool apps

[@crooker2]

You're also paying for the NDI capabilities. In Canada you can get these mevos for 499 or on sale for less. I use NDI a LOT so that was the selling feature of these to me. They are not film cameras.

[@JackupTraining]

Those are great for the purpose. There is no reason to record talking heads in resolution higher than 1080p. Only the price is rediculous. You can buy 3 GoPros for that money 😂 I would pay 500$ for this kit. Not more.
