When a webcam image needs adjustment before a call or stream, Elgato Camera Hub brings camera controls and saved setups into one place. Use its exposure, focus, and white-balance settings to tune the picture, then access the camera through supported apps such as Zoom and OBS.
Tune the camera image in Camera Hub
Connect an Elgato webcam or supported peripheral to access its camera settings. Camera Hub provides controls for exposure, focus, and white balance, so the image can be adjusted for different lighting conditions.
The available settings depend on the connected device. Adjust the picture in Camera Hub, then use the camera in a compatible recording, streaming, or video-call workflow.
Save and reload camera presets
Custom setups preserve preferred camera settings for later sessions. Save a configuration after tuning the image, then load that setup again when returning to a familiar recording or lighting arrangement.
Use the camera with Zoom and OBS
Camera Hub includes virtual camera support for apps such as Zoom and OBS. Select the Camera Hub camera in the receiving app to use the configured image in a meeting, stream, or recording. The software also supports streaming or recording in 4K when working with compatible Elgato equipment.
