NEWARK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Today Logitech (SIX:LOGN) (NASDAQ:LOGI) is expanding the ways in which
you can stream and create videos with its new Logitech®
Broadcaster Wi-Fi® Webcam. Made for video professionals, bloggers
and hobbyists, this new webcam gives you flexibility to do more than
other webcams, including live streaming, shooting videos from two
different angles or video chatting on your favorite Mac® computer.

The Logitech Broadcaster Wi-Fi Webcam makes it easy to create
professional-looking high-definition videos from your Mac, whether
you're a professor recording a lecture or a musician demonstrating how
to play the guitar. You can stream live video directly to Ustream®, and
use an iPad®, iPhone® or Mac to control and preview the video. The
Logitech Broadcaster can also act as a second video camera, adding a
complementary perspective to capture content beyond your Mac's embedded
webcam. And, its wireless connectivity gives you the ability to shoot
from virtually any angle you want. For richer and more dynamic video
content, you can easily capture the two views and stitch them together.
"The Logitech Broadcaster Wi-Fi Webcam lets you stream and record like a
pro," said Mike Culver, vice president of brand development for consumer
computing platforms at Logitech. "It helps you make the most out of your
existing Mac OS and iOS video setup for more dynamic live streaming,
recording and video chatting. It goes where a built-in webcam can't, and
with one press of a button, it's easy to switch between your built-in
webcam and the Logitech Broadcaster Wi-Fi Webcam, so your friends and
audience can enjoy a standard view or move around the room with you."
Enhancing mobility and creativity, the Logitech Broadcaster is also
compatible with popular Mac video applications. You can record video
with QuickTime® or Photo Booth®, edit and view videos with iMovie® or
Final Cut Pro®, and video chat with FaceTime®, iChat® or SkypeTM.
Pricing and Availability
The Logitech Broadcaster Wi-Fi Webcam is expected to be available in the
U.S. and Europe beginning in October 2012 for a suggested retail price
of $199.99. For more information, please visit www.logitech.com
