Logitech announces Brio 500 webcam: 1080p with adjustable field of view

Logitech will work soon Announcing a new Brio webcam: Brio 500. It can record in Full HD (30fps), has RightLight 4 brightness correction (with HDR) and an adjustable field of view.

You can choose between 55, 78 or 90 degrees, or let the Auto Frame function select that for you. You can also present documents or whiteboards using the ‘Show Mode’ function, and the privacy shutter ensures that no one is secretly watching when you don’t want to.

The webcam is tiltable and has a shutter for privacy.

The Brio 500 appears to be a cheaper alternative to the “native” Brio webcam, which can record in 4k (or 1080p at 60 fps). This webcam appeared in 2017, for 239 euros, although last year it became much cheaper. At the moment, Logitech Brio (4k) costs you around 150 euros.

This does not make the Brio 500 an attractive alternative. With a suggested retail price of 139 euros, it’s only cheaper. It comes in three colors: black, pink, and white, and the casing is made partly from recycled plastic. The Logitech Brio 500 is expected to be officially announced the day after tomorrow, and it will be available in stores soon.
