Live Remote Streaming and Control with the AG-CX10 4K Handheld Camcorder
By Adam Noyes
The Panasonic AG-CX10 is a great portable camcorder for 4K workflows, that adds a ton of power to your workflow. The AG-CX10 is one of our inhouse favorites, and we were excited to see a recent article panasonicvisualsystems.com talking about streaming directly from this camcorder, as if it is a webcam.
Check out some highlights from this article, below.
With many of us currently in quarantine, our cameras have become essential tools that let us connect with friends, business colleagues, or even mass global audiences. Whether you’re using a webcam to chat with friends on Zoom, or broadcasting content via live streaming platforms like YouTube Live, having a capable camera with professional features is essential. Let’s face it, a webcam won’t make the grade in capturing professional images and sound. You also need a professional camera with good manual control if you want to develop a unique look.
The AG-CX10 4K Compact Handheld Camcorder is a versatile tool for live remote streaming.
The new AG-CX10 4K Compact Handheld Camcorder is an ideal tool for live remote production. With a 25mm wide-angle lens, 24x optical zoom and precision Auto Focus, you can capture a variety of shots. And unlike a DSLR, the CX10 contains professional XLR audio inputs, built-in ND filters and LED light with great connectivity, including built-in Wi-Fi and separate Ethernet connectivity, remote camera operation apps, live-streaming directly to social platforms, available NDI|HX (license required) capability and more.
Panasonic Product Engineer Yusuke Ota (IG: @youski_labs) has produced three short guides in setting up your CX10 for live remote streaming. He covers the HC ROP control app for remote control, streaming live on YouTube Live and using the CX10 as a replacement to your webcam.
