Built-in microphone with RightSound

The Logitech C270 webcam captures 1280 x 720 video at 30 fps and takes 3.0 MP software-enhanced snapshots. It connects via USB 2.0 and includes a 5-foot cable for flexible placement. The fixed-focus lens and RightLight technology adjust to lighting conditions automatically. It is suited to home-office workers and students who need a simple plug-and-play camera for daily calls.

Check your port and OS before ordering

You need a free USB-A port and a supported operating system. Windows 8 or later, macOS 10.10 or later and Chrome OS are listed as compatible. The manufacturer notes a 2.4 GHz Intel Core2 Duo processor, 2 GB of RAM and 200 MB of hard-drive space as baseline requirements. Older Windows versions such as XP SP2, Vista or 7 are also supported but may lack current security updates.

Thermals, noise and power in normal use

The camera draws power directly from the USB 2.0 bus, so there is no external adapter and no audible fan. The compact body stays at room temperature during extended video sessions. Fixed focus means no motor noise while the lens adjusts. Overall power draw is minimal and will not affect laptop battery life in any noticeable way.

Questions about this item

Does the C270 960-000694 come with everything needed to start a video call or do I need a separate microphone?

The box contains the webcam with a 5-foot USB 2.0 cable, the Logitech webcam software including Logitech Vid HD, and user documentation. A built-in microphone with RightSound technology is integrated into the unit, so no separate mic is required.

The specs list 720p at 30 fps and a 3.0 MP software-enhanced snapshot mode; which figure should I prioritise for my use case?

Choose based on your primary task: the 1280 x 720 video capture at 30 fps determines live call quality on Skype, FaceTime or Hangouts, while the 3.0 MP setting applies only to still photos taken through the software.

What does the 720p 30 fps rating actually deliver when the C270 is plugged into a typical laptop?

You will get widescreen HD video at 1280 x 720 pixels and 30 frames per second over USB 2.0, with fixed-focus optics and RightLight correction that adjusts brightness automatically in normal indoor lighting.
