    • Plug-and-play Elgato works perfectly with my camera
Style: Cam Link 4K
Setting this up with my Sony ZV-E10 was super quick and easy—it’s basically plug and play. The build feels solid and well-made, which is what I expect from Elgato products, and the price felt very reasonable for the quality you get. I’m a big fan of Elgato and have my entire streaming and WFH setup built around their products, so it fits perfectly into my workflow. The device works reliably, and the image quality is consistent with what I need for streaming and video calls. Overall, I’d recommend this if you’re looking for a reliable, high-quality, and affordable tool to upgrade your streaming or WFH setup. ... show more

    • Great. would buy again
Style: Cam Link 4K
{Update} After 10 uses. Been using it with Video Conference calls. People tell me that the camera with this device are worlds better. So glad I got this device. What I've now noticed, is I don't think it's wise to keep it plugged into my laptop 24/7. The Elgato Cam get's warm even when not in use. NOT hot. But warm enough that you know it's not good for the long term to leave it like that. I would buy again for another camera for 2nd angle if I had a youtube channel or something like that for sure. If Elgato releases a USB-C version and it gives better quality, I don't think I'd jump at it. Seriously, the quality I'm getting with the current set up is totally good enough. Original Post: Setup with my Nikon D750 camera. I had to change the settings on the camera to not shutoff the link. But after figuring that out, it works great. I use it for Zoom calls for work and it's such a difference. The camera option on my mac laptop in zoom shows up as a secondary camera option. I didn't have to install any software. It just works. My nikon camera is warm after 10 minutes so you shouldn't leave the camera on all day for example. The quality and speed of the connection is seamless. I should that being USB rather than USBC might not have the bandwidth to support a smooth response, but it certainly did. No issues whatsoever. For the price, I was happy with the results. I did have to buy the HDMI cable for my Nikon which I didn't expect. So be careful in researching that. So when I'm not using the device, I keep it in a plastic case with pads in it. I also happened to have a USB cover cap that I place on it when I remove it from the computer. $100 is still expensive no matter how you look at it. I can see this device being used as part of the setup for a video podcaster or youtuber for the perfect setup. The quality is so good that it passes through. Again, it supports HD quality w/ no issues or added delay to pass the signal. The device itself is hard plastic. But it doesn't feel overly light or flimsy. I'm glad I bought it and would buy again. ... show more

    • works great but unnecessary is you have a usbc out
Style: Cam Link 4K
This works great, but I wonder why I need it using the micro hdmi out on my sony zv-e10 camera. The USB C should be able to do the same thing and will simultaneously keep my camera charged. And afaik this wont charge the camera through the hdmi. Not many cameras charge and data with a type c, so this will probably be necessary for the other cameras without the type c. And it is confusing why I need this "capture card" along with the micro hdmi to standard hdmi cord. That is excessive. Why not combine them when it is necessary to need it. So, make sure you set your camera correctly and info correctly because it will duplicate the display otherwise, even on your zoom call. Be sure to get this one too because the other one has the lower resolution in transfer, pointless for that one... ... show more

    • Small, cheap, but high quality.
Style: Cam Link 4K
Skip the $20 usb cards and grab this. The quality is amazing for a usb sized HDMI capture card! I’ve been using it with my 1080p film cameras to skip tapes and I can say it is visually uncompressed footage.

    • Does what it says it does. But it’s not durable
Style: Cam Link 4K
It works great, you will need a high end system with a fast USB port. (You cannot use with a usb hub) because latency and delay will become apparent. I can only seem to run my camera at 1080p. 60fps without a lot of delay in the image. So be warned. I can connect to the Elgato app or you can use it in OBS. Without downloading anything extra. My only issue is its durability. I had it in a neat cable managed spot for some time just to find out that the USB port on the device had bent so I had to bend it back and it felt like i was burning a 100$ bill for a second just to blow out the flame…they need to make it stronger. Also you will probably need to buy some extra cords. It doesn’t come with any adapters ... show more

    • Reliable Capture Card for Clean, High-Quality Streams
Style: Cam Link 4K
The Elgato Cam Link 4K makes it super easy to turn a camera into a webcam—just plug in HDMI and USB and it shows up right away in OBS and Zoom. The video quality looks clean and smooth in 1080p60 and 4K, and it’s been stable with no random disconnects.
