Defo made a Bunch of mistakes in this video but hey.. I'm still new to this whole RUclips thing! 😅 If anyone has a good suggestion for a higher quality/Better way to record screens please let me know! 🙃
Your video on the Fifine K688 got me buying one, and likely now it’s gonna make me buy the MK2. Awesome video, still can’t believe they came so far in terms of image quality!
Hell yeah!! Both great budget choices tbh!🔥 Its honestly amazing how good some of the cheaper options are these days! When I first started budget equipment was awful 😅
Thanks so much!! It was a bit of a rush to get this one out on time.. but I'm just glad I managed to finish it 🙃 That Laptop is a HP Omen one too.. You'd Really think it'd look better than that haha
Thank YOU! 📷 I'm just happy to point people in the direction of good, affordable equipment.. We cant all afford (and don't need) Thousands of £$€ Worth of gear to have good content 🔥
Thank you so much!! I actually enjoy making these longer videos over "shorts".. although saying that, This Vid was VERY rushed as I only got my hands on the actual camera yesterday lol
haha yeah! They'd sadly need a MUCH bigger sensor to make that possible, which would make it way more expensive!! If you have a decent GPU ( 2060 and above) Camera hub software has effects which can fake the background blur though, Which is at least something!
Hi, wich webcam u think is better? The logitech brío 4K or this new ELGATO facecam2? I use a green screen and a el gato key light as my ilumination. Thanks and i love your Content
IKR!! Pretty much have everything you could need now for a decent quality stream!🔥 I cant wait to see what else they're going to come up with in the near future! 🤞
Fair!! Ill take a look at it asap and try and fix it for next time 🔥 Serves me right for shooting/editing this in a rush and late at night 😅 Thanks @@Hapyfruit
I think the ONLY thing that's a LITTLE different is I've added a 2nd Tube light.. the one on the left side of the screen added that a few months ago though so its not super "new" 🤔
My windows pc and the camera hub program show the elgato facecam mk2 but I can not see a video everything is just black. I already installed the program again.. unplugged the cam.. started the pc new.. updated the firmware.. nothing helped. I bought the cam today :(
it doesn't have a dedicated "portrait mode" sadly But you could mount it portrait if you used a tripod or some type of 1/4-20 screw mount.. I had it mounted vertically for my tiktok streams this week using a "Magic Arm" or friction arm
@@ajsarsfield thanks for the reply, if you mount it vertically does it show vertically in the app or is it still landscape an you just have to turn your head to do the settings. (Seems like a daft oversight from a company that claims to be engaged with the streaming community.) Thanks again
Thank you! I sadly never owned the original facecam But ever since it came out ive Heard good things about it! I'm quite happy with the mk2 so far although I do think it could be improved with a "tint" green/magenta slider And for some reason it handles REALLY bright blues a bit weird sometimes 😅

I personally loved the natural feel to this video……like chatting with a mate, being human is underrated.

Holy shit the laptop webcam vs what we have nowadays.... hahah crazy.
Great video dude!
Thanks so much!!
It was a bit of a rush to get this one out on time.. but I'm just glad I managed to finish it 🙃
That Laptop is a HP Omen one too..
You'd Really think it'd look better than that haha
Recently bought this due to your recommendation, thank you for this video Owl!
Thank YOU! 📷
I'm just happy to point people in the direction of good, affordable equipment..
We cant all afford (and don't need)
Thousands of £$€ Worth of gear to have good content 🔥
Always enjoy your content mate, love the review!
Thank you so much!!
I actually enjoy making these longer videos over "shorts".. although saying that, This Vid was VERY rushed as I only got my hands on the actual camera yesterday lol
I wish it had a blurred background 😭 I know it's not possible, but bruh, otherwise it'd be perfect.
haha yeah!
They'd sadly need a MUCH bigger sensor to make that possible, which would make it way more expensive!!
If you have a decent GPU ( 2060 and above)

Nvidia broadcast. You can blur the background and source that as a camera in your streaming software
Awesome video dude. This new facecam looks awesome! And GET SOME SLEEP LOL
it was a LOOOOONG night to get this finished haha😅
I'm honestly so impressed with this lil camera though, its fantastic for how cheap it is!
@ajsarsfield It was a great edit dude. Keep it up
Hi, wich webcam u think is better? The logitech brío 4K or this new ELGATO facecam2? I use a green screen and a el gato key light as my ilumination. Thanks and i love your Content
The cat (elgato) seems to be making everything right!
IKR!!
Pretty much have everything you could need now for a decent quality stream!🔥
I cant wait to see what else they're going to come up with in the near future!
🤞
Can you please do something with the mic?
The Wave DX??
What do you need me to do? 😅
@@ajsarsfield I think it's something with the gain, it just sounds weird. Like at 0:25
Fair!!
Ill take a look at it asap and try and fix it for next time 🔥
Serves me right for shooting/editing this in a rush and late at night 😅
Thanks @@Hapyfruit
@@ajsarsfield Np!
did you change the room around again it look different?
Weirdly no!
I don't think I've changed anything for a while 🤔
I wonder why it feels different?
I think the ONLY thing that's a LITTLE different is I've added a 2nd Tube light.. the one on the left side of the screen
added that a few months ago though so its not super "new" 🤔
@@ajsarsfield maybe idk it feel like a wider shot but it could be the light just showing more. 🤔
Another valid review sir
Nicework!
Thank you so much!! 🔥
Did my best in what limited time I had to make the video 😅
.
Its honestly Such a good webcam for the price
@@ajsarsfield perfect timing, I was looking for my 1st purchase of a cam & your video popped up!
Defo perfect timing as the cam only got released today!
Must be a sign 😅
My windows pc and the camera hub program show the elgato facecam mk2 but I can not see a video everything is just black. I already installed the program again.. unplugged the cam.. started the pc new.. updated the firmware.. nothing helped. I bought the cam today :(
Thank you for the discount code!!!!!
Thank you for watching!!!
I'm glad it was useful and could save you a few $£€ 🔥
Cheers. Portrait?
it doesn't have a dedicated "portrait mode" sadly

great video! personally I didn't like the MK 2 nor the Pro, so I kept my original Facecam.
Thank you!
I sadly never owned the original facecam
But ever since it came out ive Heard good things about it!
I'm quite happy with the mk2 so far although I do think it could be improved with a "tint" green/magenta slider
And for some reason it handles REALLY bright blues a bit weird sometimes 😅
