Selecting the right camera for live streaming with Solo

By Jim Bask 0 Comment August 15, 2018

One of the biggest ways to narrow your camera search is deciding on a budget. You don’t want to waste your time sifting through tech and spec on 100 different cameras when only 20 of them fit in your budget. This also helps you really think about what is important to your streams. If you don’t have the biggest budget you may have to compromise some component of the camera in order to stay within your means. For example, “good enough” might win over “perfect” when it comes to all the bells and whistles (especially when budget is the deciding factor). In most cases you will have the chance to add on better mics, lighting or other accessories later that will more than make up for a special built-in filter.
