The Elgato Facecam 4K is back to $160 — a $40 savings and a return to its record-low price on Amazon. If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to upgrade your webcam setup, this is about as good as it gets on this particular model. We don’t expect this deal to stick around either, since it rarely comes down to this price.
Whether you’re streaming, creating content or just tired of looking like a featureless blob on video calls, a proper webcam can make a noticeable difference in your presentation. If you spend a lot of time on camera, the Facecam 4K is a worthy addition to your setup.
You get 4K resolution at 60 frames per second, powered by a Sony Starvis 2 CMOS sensor and Elgato’s own Prime Lens technology. The result is sharp, vibrant footage that can hold up well in most lighting conditions. Elgato’s free Camera Hub software gives you control over your image settings without needing to dig through complicated menus.
It also supports standard 49mm lens filters, which means you can stylize your look. Built-in flash memory saves your settings between sessions, and the eco-friendly build uses low-waste materials.
