Getting my feet wet

in #blog7 years ago (edited)

For a while now I've been wanting to pursue recording gameplay and streaming. So when browsing for a capture card today I came across this Logitech C922 webcam, it was listed under items that customers also viewed.

After doing some research on it, and watching multiple YouTube videos it seems like a really good camera for streamers. Best Buy has it on sale this week for $79.99, it's regularly $99.99. So I decided to pick one up in hopes to start streaming videos.

One of the features that sold me on this item is the fact that the camera does automatic background removal, which allows you to superimpose yourself onto your game without the need for a green screen. Being as I'm just starting out and don't currently have a green screen this feature could become quite useful.

Included in the packaging is a small tripod, some of the reviews that I read said this it's not the best but will definitely get the job done. I'm sure it will work out great for me, especially since I don't have any experience with other tripods or have anything to compare it to.

Upon opening the box I was greeted with the camera pointed right at me. Everything in the box was package nicely, nothing was loose or moving around.

The Logitech C922 is a lot smaller than I expected, and that's a good thing because it won't be an eye sore if I decide to mount it on top of my monitor or TV.

The Logitech C922 webcam will help me get my feet wet with streaming. This is my first equipment purchase and the first time I'll be putting myself online. I'm extremely nervous yet super excited at the same time. It's going to be a learning experience for me, and I expect that at first things won't go as smoothly as planned. I'm confident thought that the more I put into this, the better I'll get. Who knows, it may not be the thing for me.... or I could get totally sucked in.

Thanks for taking the time to read my first blog and brief overview on this product. If you're interested in where this journey takes me please follow me for future updates.
