Twitch Streaming TIPS – Webcam

Streaming on Twitch doesn't require much, but make sure you don't use the webcam that comes with the laptop. Get yourself a decent 720P or above webcam from a reputable manufacturer. Yes, I know you can get a pretty cheap one that says it's 720P, 1080P etc. Often enough, the software doesn't match the hardware, and it's pretty crappy quality.

I'm going to explore a few options that are bound to improve how you look on camera.

Webcam of Choice?

My camera of choice is Logitech C922, which runs at $129.99 Canadian. However, I'm not currently using that one as it's in transit. I'm making use of the Microsoft Lifecam 720P. The Microsoft Lifecam 720P will work just fine and provide a decent experience to your viewers.

Since most of you are going to and or streaming on Twitch, you can't stream more than 720P without being a partner. But using a camera that can push that 1080P does have benefits even if you can't send it to your spectators.

Microsoft Lifecam HD – Cost

I picked up the Microsoft Lifecam nearly 5-years ago for $99.99 Canadian. With the high-demand for webcams on the market, you can look at paying $200+ for a Microsoft Lifecam. If you can find a Best Buy location that does still have webcams, the Microsoft Lifecam HD is $79.99 Canadian.
