Common questions
Does the Facecam 4K have a microphone?
No. Elgato's design drops a built-in microphone, so a separate mic or headset is needed.
Does it have autofocus?
No. Elgato lists a fixed lens focused between 30 and 120 cm at 4K, with a wider range at 1080p.
Can I use lens filters?
Yes. Elgato says the Facecam 4K supports 49 mm lens filters for a more cinematic look.
