Debian Logitech Camera

I needed a good camera for working from home and I use Debian Linux. This camera works like charm!

Works great with logitech camera.

After patiently waiting 6 months for the email from B&H that another batch of Ryzen 5 5600X processors had arrived, I immediately purchased the following components for a mini ITX build: Ryzen 5 5600X cpu Gigabyte B550I motherboard Patriot Viper 2x16GB DDR4 3200 MHz ram WD SN850 1TB PCIe 4.0 M.2 2280 SSD Noctua NH-L9x65 low-profile cpu cooler Resulted in a SPECTACULAR performance upgrade to the FX-6300 hard disk drive computer that has been my workhorse for the last 8 years. Click the mouse, and Boop, almost immediate file load. Power on completes within 5-10 seconds. Because of the video card supply shortage, had to use an old Asus GT630 card, although the rest of the system compensates to still make for quick graphic design. The only issue was installing Debian Linux. Debian 10 Buster does not have a native driver for the Realtek 2.5 GbE LAN chip. After a few hours of trying to manually load the RealTek RTL8125 driver with no success, I tried the testing Debian 11 Bullseye release, which successfully completed the installation with the r8169 driver. A hearty 5 Star recommendation for the Gigabyte B550I, especially since it does not have a chipset cooling fan that can add noise. The SilverStone SG05BB-LITE case I use has plenty of vent area and temperature has not been a problem.

I didn't expect it will work with debian linux, but everything is functional. I bought two similar docks for home and for office and pretty happy with the experience.

I had to jump through some hoops to get it working in Linux Debian 12, but that was a Linux issue, not a device issue. Works well and consistently.

This works with Linux, out of the box, plug and play. Running Debian Bullseye, Document Scanner.

I needed a webcam to use for working from home. I was skeptical at first that a small webcam such as this could produce a great image but I purchased anyway. After hooking the camera up and installing the optional Logitech Camera Settings app, I was blown away at the quality and field of view this camera offered. The 1080p resolution is crystal clear, even when zooming in. The zoom and pan options in the Logitech Camera Settings app were a nice touch to allow you to zoom in on yourself or pull focus on something else in view without having to physically move the camera. One thing I was happy to see is that this camera doesn't do that weird zoom/auto-focus thing that many Logitech cameras do where the person goes completely out of focus for a few seconds while it tries to auto-focus. I have a headset that I use for my video conferencing but the camera includes a microphone, should you need one. So far, I have zero complaints on the product. Overall, I would highly recommend this webcam for it's quality and features.

Logitech is amazing

It's a Logitech product so it just works.

This camera is exactly what it is promised to be ... an excellent quality webcam. I am using it in conjunction with other cameras (from Logitech and Wyze) with OBS Studio to produce multi-camera online demonstrations. Video quality is superb and the auto-focus produces sharp, clear images. Compares favorably with my Logitech C920 at a very reasonable price.
