Testing out the Logitech 4K BRIO Desktop Camera

We are impressed! Logitech sent us over the Logitech 4K BRIO Pro Desktop Camera to test out and feature on our KMSB Fox 11 Segment. It will be difficult to be able to show all the features of the BRIO on our segment so we decided to through a demo here on the TechtalkRadio Website. I will start off noting the very first feature to notice out of the box is the elimination on the hard wired USB cable to the webcam. Over the years we have only had it happen a couple of times but a cord could get damaged and then, that was pretty much it for that camera (yes, we know there are videos on the web on correcting this.) The Camera is connected via a USB C type connection to USB, a long cable is provided for that and can be completely disconnected if need be. Strong Sturdy construction on the base can affix the BRIO snugly to the top of a monitor or to a portable tripod. After download the free Logitech Capture Software from the website, we find so many neat features to use. Rather then run down a list we decided to use the camera itself to show these features on the fly. The BRIO also features a Privacy shutter and nice carrying bag for the cable and BRIO.

We will post our segment from KMSB on Monday but hope you are able to get a better view of the Logitech 4K Pro BRIO with this video!

Unboxing First Look at the ReoLink2 Home Security Camera

There are so many options on the market for Home Security Cameras which tie into the users router and an App for monitoring activity. We have seen systems with Wi-Fi capabilities as well as rechargeable or removable batteries such as the Arlo which are nice however it does mean having to climb a ladder in some cases to switch those batteries out.

This past week we were offered the opportunity to look at the ReoLink2 which not only features a rechargeable battery but can also be tied to and inexpensive mini solar panel for power! Below is our Unboxing of the ReoLink2 Camera and Solar Panel provided by Reolink for Review.
