Logitech and Carl Zeiss: Together. For better video calling.

Logitech released its first webcam in 1995 and has been a major force in the development of webcam technology since the inception of video communication over the internet.
In 2007, Carl Zeiss began an exclusive relationship with Logitech, the world's leading manufacturer of webcams, marking a significant step in the development of webcam optics.

You can find Carl Zeiss optics featured in these Logitech webcams:

A focus on the lens

Lens quality is the most important feature of a webcam. If your webcam's lens isn't good, your image quality won't be good either – no matter how many megapixels you've got.

A webcam lens captures the light that the sensor then transforms into the image you see. You need a high-quality lens to capture more light and produce the best images. Together with Carl Zeiss, Logitech created an advanced lens design to give you more clarity and less distortion.

An updated classic

With Logitech, the Carl Zeiss webcam lens is a new take on the Tessar lens design. While the original Tessar design was patented back in 1902, it's the most famous camera lens for a reason. It delivers sharp images in a compact, lightweight form - which also happens to make it perfect for webcams.

To bring you the best webcam images possible, Logitech and Carl Zeiss turned the classic four-element Tessar design into a five-element design. Two of the lenses in the stack are cemented together to focus the light onto the sensor with maximum detail and minimal distortion. You can see the difference in your images.
