When streaming live video, the right camera makes a difference. It’s second only to sufficient network bandwidth for ensuring that virtual meetings are not disrupted by choppy and frozen images.

Now that virtual meetings are common in businesses of all kinds, it’s important that organizations deploy the latest technology to keep meetings productive.

The Logitech StreamCam Plus is a powerful new camera that meets those needs and works well for collaborative meetings and remote calls.

Ideal for broadcasting live content from its robust 2.1-megapixel optical sensor, the Logitech StreamCam Plus is great for webinars and videoconferencing.

The camera features an artificial intelligence capability that provides seamless face tracking, including auto-focus and exposure. When someone is giving a presentation, the speaker’s face will be clear and crisp throughout.

I tested this feature by using the StreamCam during team meetings and routine presentations with executives for three weeks, then reverting to a built-in notebook camera. My viewers let me know how much clearer and better I looked with the StreamCam.

The StreamCam’s versatile mounting options showcase presenters in the best positions and at the right angles. They’ll seem to be looking viewers in the eye, not above or below, while still being able to read the screen and any notes.

As great as these features are, the most impressive capability of the StreamCam is its quick setup. During a business trip, I needed to take an important meeting in an airport terminal, but I was three minutes late. Nonetheless, I was able to get the camera up and ready before the videoconferencing tool started the meeting.

Cameras are often unsung heroes at work and are nowadays essential to working on the go or from home. The Logitech StreamCam Plus is a testament to these principles.

A little-noticed aspect of video cameras is how many parts make up this important technology. With so many features to discuss, I’ve simplified the qualities of an effective video camera, like the Logitech StreamCam Plus, into four S’s: sound, size, sight and simplicity.
