Logitech C910 HD Pro Webcam Review

It's a marvel to think just how far webcams have evolved over the last twenty years. Back in 1991, it all began when geniuses at Cambridge University streamed a 128x128 representation of a coffee pot in glorious grayscale - serious business, no doubt. Today webcams can still be used to monitor coffee, of course, but they more frequently play a role in connecting families, friends, service members and business professionals all across the globe. And thanks to the High-Definition craze, we're just beginning to see webcams that can do it all in 1080p, well over 125x the resolution of the first CoffeCam and in super glorious 24-bit color.

One of the front-runners in this current generation of 1080p cameras is Logitech C910 HD Pro Webcam, an impressive piece of kit that pushes the limits of USB 2.0, not to mention the limits of your internet connection. Dual microphones and Carl Zeiss glass optics with auto-focus add flavor to the mix, but is it all worth it? Find out in our in-depth review.

Verdict:
Logitech C910 HD Pro Webcam offers amazing picture quality with a reliable autofocus, but the two of the major selling points - 1080p and stereo microphones - are both handicapped due to software limitations.

The Good:

Excellent picture quality
Shorter, improved mounting clip
Professional aesthetic design
Unobtrusive autofocus
Clear speech when RightSound is active
UVC-compliant
720p at 30fps
1080p at 15fps (24fps without drivers)
Motion recording with audio

The Bad:

No hardware compression
RightSound is monaural only
USB cable is only 5 feet long
Logitech Vid only supports calls up to 720p
Promoted 3rd party face recognition is buggy, insecure
