Razer has launched the Razer Kiyo V2 Pro as its latest 4K webcam aimed at gamers, streamers, and content creators; while it is no DSLR, it can rival them with 4K 60FPS video capability, which Razer says is most capable webcam in its Kiyo lineup to date.
Razer Kiyo V2 Pro
The Razer Kiyo V2 Pro is powered by a Sony STARVIS 2 backside-illuminated (BSI) image sensor designed to capture more light per pixel in near-dark conditions. On paper, this allows the webcam to reliably capture 4K 60FPS with reduced motion blur caused by low shutter speed, which is usually a method of compensation for low-light conditions in conventional webcams. It also supports Ultra-High Dynamic Range (UHDR), which captures greater detail across both highlights and shadows while preserving color depth.
Razer touts several built-in AI-powered features: intelligent auto-framing combines with dynamic pan, tilt, and zoom to automatically track the creator’s movements and keep them centered in frame, while a One-Click Image Enhancement feature automatically adjusts exposure, white balance, and noise reduction to suit varying lighting conditions. Users who want more granular control can access them through Razer Synapse software.
The webcam is equipped with an 86-degree wide-angle lens that captures a broad field of view with minimal edge distortion. A universal pivoting mount supports both monitor and tripod placement, while an integrated privacy shutter provides a quick and physical way to block the camera with a simple twist.
Razer has partnered with Camo Studio to offer a complimentary Camo Pro subscription with the Kiyo V2 Pro – this subscription unlocks additional features including auto-framing and advanced webcam controls beyond what is available out of the box. The Razer Kiyo V2 Pro is available now at Razer.com, RazerStores, and select online retailers worldwide at a retail price of RM1,349.
