What is the BEST webcam to use for streaming?

What's your budget?"BEST" is going to get really expensive, really quick. None, many will just pop their cellphone in a clamp mount with a webcam app or VDO.Ninja. Starter standalone, the Logitech c920 is the gold standard. Stepping up, something like the Elgato Facecam Mk2 is a good pick. High-end-

Best budget setup for streaming 11v11 soccer matches (OBS + multi-cam?) ⚽🎥

Adding on to the existing answers here, some options you migt want to consider: First, have a look for the Obsbot Tail 2 camera system. It's a PTZ camera and gets most of its praises for the autotracking feature (which I don't think is suitable for 11v11 soccer) but you can either work with the pres

Best budget setup for streaming 11v11 soccer matches (OBS + multi-cam?) ⚽🎥

Having a look at the OBSBOT Tail 2, it seems viable. I’ll probably avoid GoPros. My original plan was to have one central camera that follows the game, with me doing commentary. But if needed, I could run one central camera plus one on the left and one on the right, and use something like a Stream D

Need advice for Livestream Setup

I just tested the OBSBOT Tail 2 and found it very impressive. It doesn’t zoom a lot though, so keep in mind where you can put it for correct framing. You still need a controller if you wanna position them on the fly (you do). The canon’s are going to look better and move better, but I really don’t l

Mevo multicam static shot for sports.

I personally do not have a video out there that shows the settings more streamlined than I described. You should look up Jason Hoffman and baseball streaming on YouTube. I found him about 2 years ago, and it started me on this crazy Rabbit hole that I have gone down. What I can tell you from persona

Do any ~$3k PTZ actually look good?

I will second the idea that lighting helps. I don't know how they hold up long term, but I just got an Obsbot tail 2 and I'm happy with the image, it's 4k, ai auto tracking, and has hdmi and sdi output, and internal recording, which is all I need

Best webcam money can buy

People have been hyping the OBSBOT tail 2. Ai tracking, mechanical zoom and good lens quality. Don't own it but I've been eyeing it.

Switch 2 Compatible? (testing)

Very excited about this space, especially if the OBSBOT Tail 2 could function with it. The current official Nintendo camera requires players sit as still as a statue, which is hard during heated Mario Kart battles.

Trackmix thoughts?

Depends what kinds of requirements one have I suppose. First thing to note is that TrackMix is a dual lens, 4K normal (wide) + 1080p telephoto auto-track zooming lens, so the zoomed one isn't even 4K. The TrackMix will just barely zoom in is it like 3x amount or something before digital zoom kicks i
