Ahoj! This is Zdenka.
The only reason why I was staying away
from live streaming is a set up.
I was always wondering how I would do,
let's say, behind the scenes type of a thing.
And I simply could not see myself
operating all these cameras by myself.
I just couldn't see it.
So that's the only way why I was staying away from it.
Well, today I have this device
which is slowly changing my mind.
I might try something like that as early as next week.
What I've got here today is Obsbot Tiny 4K
magnetic AI-powered HDR capable ptz webcam.
This video is sponsored by Obsbot, however, I am not been told what to say.
What is Obsbot Tiny 4k?
It's a webcam designed for livestreaming, Zoom,
Facebook, Skype, teaching and presentations.
The camera comes with a usb-c to Usb-C cable, which is fairly long,
1.5 meters. Usb-c female to usb-a male adapter.
,USB-a to DC Power Cable, Magnetic Mount,
Carry Back, User Manual and warranty card.
The camera is fairly light without a mount.
It is 147 grams. With the mount it is 176
grams and dimensions are displayed on the screen.
When you look at the camera,
you will notice quite a bit of lens, camera indicator, microphone,
DC Power Port. USB Type-C port,
quarter inch screw and a magnetic base.
The camera can run both on a Mac and a PC
computers. Recommended computers are displayed on the screen.
Mounting is quite easy.
You can have it sit somewhere on a table, shelf
perhaps. It can be mounted on a monitor with this attachment.
I just have it here
sit on this small tripod.
Once you connect it to your computer, it will automatically install.
There is an app you going to be using with and it's called Obsbot
Tiny Cam, where you can do a lot of configurations.
So let's turn on the camera.
I'm going to be using OBS software to show you the picture quality.
Now the camera can record up to 4K at 30 frames
per second and 1080p at 60 frames per second.
Field of view is 86%.
For those who are wondering how to get the 4K view in OBS
software, let me show you the steps how to set that up.
Go to OBS, go to file, settings.
Here in the settings, go to video
and rewrite the resolution to 3880 by 2160.
The same thing goes for output resolution
and select frame rate 30 frames per second.
Under sources window hit Plus, Select a video capture device.
Once you double click video capture device, Select Obsbot
Tiny 4K camera. The camera can be used in
temperatures ranging from zero to plus 40 degrees Celsius.
The picture quality you are watching right now, it's all fully automatic.
You can adjust the brightness, exposure, colors and all that
in the software, which I'm going to show you shortly.
Let's test the sound.
It's got dual omni directional microphones with noise reductions.
And this is a picture and the sound you are going to get from this webcam.
As you can see, it has changing lights,
so you know exactly what is going on.
When it is turning on, the blue light will flash.
When it is on, the light will be green.
When you are going to lift your hand like this to enable tracking,
the light will flash blue. If the camera did
not recognize the target, it would be green only in the middle.
If it did recognize the target, it would get a green across the whole thing.
If it is yellow, it is losing the target. During the upgrade to blue and yellow
lights will keep flashing.
If it flashes red, then it means that the upgrade failed.
And if all the lights are red and they are solid,
then it means that the product failed or there is simply an error.
I mentioned tracking, so let me show you how that works.
We will turn it on and off exactly the same way, just like this.
So now let's say I am doing a cooking recipe in
livestreaming from the kitchen so I can be moving around like this
and the camera will simply follow me.
It's never going to lose me. The same thing if I'm teaching something
and I'm teaching it to a whole bunch of students and I still want to livestream
to get that across to the rest of the people,
the same thing. I can be moving around and it's not going to lose me.
It has two axes pan and tilt.
Controllable pan range is 150 degrees
and tilt range is 45 degrees.
Structurally possible range is 160 degrees
for pan and 90 degrees for tilt.
Maximum control speed is 120 degrees a second.
Now, if you are a teacher who is afraid that when you raise your arm like this
and to tell the students to raise the arm if they need something
and you're going to turn off the tracking, there is a solution for that.
You basically go to the software. First, you enable the tracking,
and then you turn off gesture control. And then you can wave your arm you want
and it's not going to turn off until you go back to the software
and turn off the tracking in the software.
If you need to shut off the webcam, you just want the camera off completely,
there is a privacy mode for that.
Just turn the camera down. That's it.
There is one more gesture you can do, and that is this
L. When you hold this gesture, it is going to zoom in and the same way
you are going to zoom out. It has up to four times digital zoom.
The default is set to two times. How much you want to zoom in,
you can adjust in the software.
Let's check out Obsbot Tiny cam app.
Now I'm going to be using Zoom for this to show you the settings.
Unfortunately in Zoom, you are limited with picture quality.
You are not going to get 4K, you have to record in HD.
Now it's time to check out the Obsbot Tiny app.
You can see that the one camera is connected here.
You can turn on and off tracking below
and you can zoom in and zoom out.
On the right is where you can put the camera up to sleep mode
or wake up the camera from sleep mode. Below are gimbal controls and joystick.
When you move the joystick,
you are basically moving the camera around and when you need to reset it,
just hit this button. Right at the bottom
here are preset positions.
There are three and this is where it gets really great, especially for me.
That's what started changing my mind a bit about possible live streaming.
You can choose three different locations and save them as presets.
Let me show you.
So first one is just going to be on me.
So I'm going to edit as a preset location number one.
Then perhaps I want to do the close up on all those cameras there on the table.
So I'm going to position it and actually I'm going to zoom in a little bit
like that and I'm going to make better position
and save it as a position number two.
And then let's do a third one.
So I'm going to zoom out again
and let's just do I don't know, I'm just going to do very neutral
location right here.
That will be preset location number three.
So as I'm talking, obviously, I'm going to have the camera on me now.
So when I'm talking about, let's say cameras or something and
I want to show that location over there, I just press location number two.
And now the camera goes automatically to that shot.
And when I'm done,
I press the first preset location and it goes back on me.
So that makes it super easy.
You only need one camera to cover all those three shots.
I like that.
Below the camera icon are settings.
So at a top you can see the software version and the firmware version.
You can adjust here when you want the device to go to sleep.
Right now it's set for 2 minutes
by default. You can turn off the gesture control locked target.
That's when I said that
you enable the tracking first and then turn off the gesture control.
That means that you can move around and it will still keep tracking you.
You can also turn off the gesture controls zoom. Gesture control
zoom factor is where you can change the default zoom.
You can make it a lot bigger if you want to.
This camera has three different tracking modes.
So first one is headroom mode.
This is when you will get a little bit
more of a headroom head area like this.
The second one is standard mode.
Let me turn it off and then now turn it on.
It's still the same.... oh there go.
So it is not so much of a headroom. And a third one is motion mode
and that will be pretty much your body.
So when you are moving your body, it's going to be tracking you
a little bit faster.
So I'm going to go back to Standard Mode and you can see the camera
is already slowly going up. Camera settings
I'm going to skip for now because that's another whole different section.
Below are also screen modes.
You can film and landscape and portrait
and last setting is initial position.
So it's time to go now to the camera settings.
As you can see, this panel is quite large.
There's lots you can control.
First of all, HDR is enabled by default.
You can turn it off here.
You can also do manual focus if you like.
You can also do manual exposure.
You can change everything.
You can change shutter speed and ISO.
You can turn on flicker
to get rid of any flickering lights.
Then you can also change white balance.
You can do custom white balance, you can change
contrast, saturation, sharpness and hue.
You can control the picture quality on your own.
This little device has certainly lots to offer.
At first I thought it's just, you know, tracking webcam.
But then when I start seeing all those features
and especially those shots, you can save as a presets and you can
manipulate the whole picture quality, you can make it look the way you want.
It definitely surprised me. So far
I didn't see anything negative about that.
The bottom gets a little bit warm
after a use, but as the manual says, it's quite normal.
It's not burning or anything.
It's just warm.
