To stand out in your streams, you’ll need to consider low light capabilities, lens choice, and connectivity. Sony Full frame and APS-C sensors deliver more detail in low light and more lens flexibility, whilst 1’’ type sensors will give you a smaller, often all-in-one quality solution. 

Perfect Audio capture 

• Built-in microphone gathers  clear sound in front of the camera
• Pair compatible cameras with a wide range of Sony wireless microphones that will deliver professionally graded sound.

For streaming, the lav. microphone, compact and discreet will be your best companion!

When it comes to streaming, subject is often close to the camera. As such we recommend using lenses with a wide angle of view like:
• 10-18mm f4 (ZV-E10)
• 16-35mm f4 (Alpha 7C)
• 20mm f1.8 G (Alpha 7C)
