Logitech Mevo Start Full HD Live Streaming Camera, 1-Pack
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Logitech Mevo Start Full HD Live Streaming Camera, 1-Pack (961-000514) - 2 Years Local Warranty
A 232 g streaming camera that runs all day on its own battery
The Mevo Start is a self-contained wireless streaming camera: a fixed 83.7-degree lens at f/2.8, 1080p recording and streaming, a three-microphone array with spatial processing, and up to six hours of battery - in a body that weighs 232 g and screws onto a microphone stand. It is built for the productions that do not justify a camera operator: services and assemblies, lecture and classroom capture, panel discussions, studio interviews and hybrid town halls.
Everything it needs is already inside it
Unlike a webcam, the Mevo Start does not need a computer to stream. It connects over dual-band Wi-Fi - and can create its own access point - then publishes directly to YouTube, Facebook, Twitch and other platforms through the Mevo app on a phone or tablet. Recording goes to a microSD card. Audio comes from three built-in microphones with Fraunhofer upHear spatial processing, or from a 3.5 mm TRS input or USB-C when you need a mixer feed or a wireless receiver.
NDI and SRT, not just RTMP
Mevo Start is NDI-enabled for IP video on a local network and SRT-enabled for secure, low-latency streaming, which is what separates it from consumer streaming cameras and lets it drop into an existing production workflow. Wired Ethernet with PoE is available through an adapter, and USB-C UVC webcam mode makes it a good camera for Teams, Zoom or Google Meet when it is not on a stream.
Designed to be used several at a time
The Mevo Multicam and Mevo Studio apps connect several Mevo cameras into one production with live switching, so a single operator on a tablet can cut between wide, close and audience angles. If you know you want more than one angle, the Mevo Start 3-Pack is the better buy - see the ordering section below for the comparison.

| A phone or tablet | The Mevo app on iOS or Android controls the camera, frames the shot and starts the stream. The camera can run without a computer, but not without a controlling device. |
| Recording media | A microSD card is required for local recording and is not included. |
| Wired networking | Ethernet with PoE is supported through an adapter, which is sold separately. Recommended for permanent installs and for streams that cannot drop. |
| Mounting | The thread is 5/8"-27, the microphone stand standard, and an adapter for standard 1/4-20 tripod threads is supplied. Worth checking against the stands you already own. |
| Multi-camera production | Mevo Studio combines several Mevo cameras, webcams, NDI sources and media into one switched production. Mevo Start cameras can be mixed with the higher-end Mevo Core. |
| Video conferencing use | UVC webcam mode over USB-C works with Microsoft Teams, Zoom and Google Meet. It is not a certified meeting room device - for Teams Rooms or Zoom Rooms certification see the Logitech MeetUp and Rally Bar range. |
| Fixed lens | Unlike the Mevo Core, the Start has a fixed 83.7-degree lens and no interchangeable mount. Frame by camera placement rather than by optics. |

Frequently Asked Questions - Logitech Mevo Start
Do I need a computer to stream with it?
No. The Mevo Start streams on its own over Wi-Fi, controlled from the Mevo app on a phone or tablet. You do need that controlling device, but no laptop and no capture card.
Can I change the lens?
No. The Mevo Start has a fixed 8-element f/2.8 lens with an 83.7-degree diagonal field of view. If you need interchangeable optics or shallow depth of field, that is the Mevo Core, which takes Micro Four Thirds lenses - though it is body-only and the lens is a separate purchase.
Does it shoot 4K?
No. Recording and streaming are up to 1080p30. The Mevo Core is the 4K model in the range.
Can I use it as a webcam?
Yes, in UVC mode over USB-C, with Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Google Meet and similar clients. It is not a certified meeting room appliance - for that see the Logitech MeetUp 2 or Rally Bar range.
How does it mount?
On a 5/8"-27 microphone stand thread, with an adapter supplied for standard tripod threads. At 232 g it is light enough for a lightweight stand or a clamp.
Should I buy one camera or the 3-Pack?
If a single fixed angle covers the room, one is enough. If you want to cut between a wide shot, a close shot and the audience - the usual requirement for services, panels and lecture capture - the 3-Pack costs less than three separate cameras and is the more sensible starting point.
What warranty does it come with?
Two years. Logitech publishes a 2-year limited hardware warranty for the Mevo Start, and units sold by SourceIT carry a 2-year Singapore local warranty with a GST invoice.
