Elgato Launches Facecam 4K Webcam With 4K60 Video, Swappable 49-mm Lens Filters, and DSLR Controls at 200 Euros

Elgato has launched its new Facecam 4K webcam, which supports 4K resolution at 60 frames per second and offers DSLR-like manual controls. A notable feature of the Facecam 4K is its compatibility with standard 49-mm lens filters, allowing users to swap lens filters—a first for webcams. The device aims to deliver professional camera quality to content creators and streamers at a more affordable price point, approximately 200 euros. The webcam has been praised for its advanced sensor, new lens, and analog filter support, positioning it as a potential replacement for traditional professional cameras in live streaming and video conferencing contexts. The Facecam 4K is now available for preorder.
