Plug-and-play camera link
The Elgato Cam Link 4K turns an unencrypted HDMI signal from a DSLR, camcorder or action cam into a USB 3.0 webcam source. It supports 3840x2160 at 30 fps and 1920x1080 at 60 fps for live streaming or recording. No internal capture card is required.
Streamers and remote workers
Creators who want higher image quality than a built-in webcam can use existing camera gear with OBS, Game Capture or video-call apps. Buyers whose cameras only output encrypted HDMI or who need 4K at 60 fps should look at a different capture method.
Compact USB 3.0 dongle
The stick measures 0.47 x 1.22 x 3.18 inches and weighs 0.04 lb, so it adds negligible bulk to a laptop bag. A USB 3.0 extension cable is included for flexible placement. Windows 10 64-bit or macOS 10.12 with a 4th-gen quad-core i5 is the minimum host requirement.
