Elgato FaceCam MK.2 Webcam for Streaming with 1080p60 HDR Video, CMOS Sensor, f/2.4 Fixed-Focus Lens, 84-Degree Field of View, USB 3.0 Type-C Connection, and DSLR-Style Image Controls for Twitch, YouTube, and Video Conferencing
The Elgato FaceCam MK.2 (10WAC9901) is a premium 1080p60 webcam designed for streaming and content creation, delivering Full HD video at 60 frames per second with HDR processing through a CMOS sensor and f/2.4 fixed-focus lens that captures more detail, color accuracy, and natural lighting than standard webcams running at 30 fps. The 84-degree field of view frames the face and upper body without the barrel distortion of wider-angle lenses, and the USB 3.0 Type-C connection provides the bandwidth for uncompressed 1080p60 video output with the included 6.56-foot braided USB-A to USB-C cable.
The FaceCam MK.2 provides DSLR-style software controls for exposure, white balance, contrast, saturation, and sharpness, allowing precise tuning of the camera image rather than relying on automatic processing that shifts between frames. The fixed-focus design eliminates the hunting and refocusing that autofocus webcams produce during hand gestures and movement, maintaining consistent sharpness from the 11.81-inch minimum focus distance through typical desk setups. The monitor clamp mount with 1/4-inch thread provides standard tripod compatibility for boom arm and desktop stand mounting, and the 3.3 x 1.5 x 2.4-inch body at 3.17 oz sits on top of a monitor without adding noticeable weight or bulk.
Where the Elgato FaceCam MK.2 Fits
- Twitch and YouTube streamers who need consistent, high-frame-rate video where 1080p at 60 fps delivers smooth motion during movement and gestures without the blur of 30 fps webcams, HDR processing handles mixed lighting from ring lights and monitors, and the DSLR-style controls lock in a tuned image that stays consistent across streaming sessions
- Video conferencing professionals who want premium camera quality where the f/2.4 lens and CMOS sensor reproduce natural skin tones and accurate color in office and home lighting conditions, the 84-degree field of view frames the speaker without excessive background, and the fixed-focus lens eliminates distracting autofocus shifts during presentations
- Content creators who need a reliable camera without complex setup where the USB 3.0 Type-C connection provides plug-and-play operation on Windows and macOS without capture cards or external power, the monitor clamp and 1/4-inch tripod thread support multiple mounting configurations, and the 3.17 oz weight allows mounting on thin monitor bezels and lightweight stands
