    Defo made a Bunch of mistakes in this video but hey.. I'm still new to this whole UA-cam 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!

      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.

    • @ajsarsfield
      @ajsarsfield  8 місяців тому +4

      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!

    • @TrueIrishAnimal

      Nvidia broadcast. You can blur the background and source that as a camera in your streaming software

    • @ajsarsfield
      @ajsarsfield  7 місяців тому +1

      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 :(

    • @ajsarsfield
      @ajsarsfield  7 місяців тому +1

      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

    great video! personally I didn't like the MK 2 nor the Pro, so I kept my original Facecam.

    • @ajsarsfield
      @ajsarsfield  6 місяців тому +1

      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 😅
