KBOzzie59 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Went on the cheap with a Logi C922. It seems to have the same horrible traits as the C920, broken focus and a super shallow depth of field. I'm looking for suggestions, what are you streamers using? I'm looking at things in the $1000 range but would go higher if it can make me a sandwich and bring me a glass of iced tea (sweet tea like they drink in the South). Bonus if it can do 20+ MP stills. Thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Streetwise Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 (edited) Speaking only of webcams, the Brio 4K is good at filming small tanks at close range, but you have to use the app to get the right control.

Administrators Cory Posted October 15, 2020 Administrators Share Posted October 15, 2020 Use a camlink4k and then choose a camera. I believe the Sony zv1 is incredible value for most. I still consider using it for streaming. It’s my main filming camera, it’s basically a much more expensive camera on the cheap. Holds its own just fine.

Daniel Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 I live streamed a honeybee observation hive this spring for days at a time in 4k at first using a Brio 4k as @Streetwise mentions. But in the end to get better quality I upgraded (as @Cory mentions above) to camlink4k with a Panasonic GH5s and Xsplit Broadcaster. An observation hive is a glass box full of biology just like an aquarium and I intend to try this setup on a fish tank soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooooo...can't wait to see that, @Daniel. The video of the observation hive was absolutely mesmerizing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBOzzie59 Posted August 2, 2021 Author Share Posted August 2, 2021 Thanks for the info @Cory, finally ordered the ZV-1 and Cam Link 4K. I'm looking forward to doing some decent tank live streams and videos. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
