Logitech’s Webcam Fusion

By Digital Trends Staff August 15, 2005

Logitech

Logitech today announced the release of the harmonious sounding ‘Fusion’ as the latest member of the QuickCam family of webcams.

Ushered in with a price tag of $99.99 MSRP, the QuickCam Fusion has been bolstered with a true 1.3 megapixel sensor, Logitech’s ‘RightLight’ and ‘RightSound’ technologies and Logitech’s new ‘Video Effects’ software, all hoping to make the Fusion a gold blend in itself.

With Logitech’s expectations of the hardware and software blended ‘Fusion’ being high, a number of points of interest to be noted are improved video performance and clear, echo-free audio, which Logitech hope will make the ‘Fusion’ a new benchmark for consumer webcam performance.

Expected to be available this month, we shall see whether ‘Fusion’ really does live up to its name.

Usually $100, this Razer webcam with a built-in ring light is $54 today

The Razer Kiyo webcam with its light turned on.

If you're thinking about getting into video game streaming, or if you just want a really cool webcam, you can't go wrong with the Razer Kiyo, especially now that it's on sale from Walmart for just $54. There's no telling when it will return to its normal price of $100, so if you want to take advantage of the $46 in savings, you shouldn't be wasting time. Add the webcam to your cart and hurry with the transaction, because if you delay, you're risking missing out.

Why you should buy the Razer Kiyo webcam
The Razer Kiyo is in our list of the best webcams as our recommended option for influencers, as its built-in ring light that surrounds the webcam provides extra illumination and eliminates shadows. You can adjust the 5600K light's brightness level by twisting its bezel like a camera lens, so you can choose just the right amount of brightness for your stream. Not only is this helpful to light up your face, but also to give your audience a better look at details for instances such as when you're unboxing products.

Logitech’s new Pro X peripherals are stunning, but I only recommend one of them

Logitech's Pro 2 gaming peripherals.

Logitech gave its Pro series of gaming peripherals a refresh. We have the Pro X Superlight 2 mouse, the Pro X TKL keyboard, and the Pro X 2 Lightspeed headset. But after using all three for over a week, I've concluded that there's only one worth buying.

Logitech's gaming peripherals are traditionally expensive, and some products truly meet the expectations set by their price, such as the G915 TKL. The new range doesn't quite hit that mark, short of the Pro X Superlight 2 mouse, which hasn't left my desk since it showed up.
An exceptional gaming mouse
The $160 Pro X Superlight 2 mouse doesn't look like much. You could stack it up right next to an original Pro X Superlight and see basically no differences. Both mice have the same look and design, and they're available in the same colors. So, why should you buy the Pro X Superlight 2, especially now that the original model is on sale?
