    Is the upfront cost of an HDMI-capable camera, capture card, technical investment, worth it?

    I feel like most folks stick with the basic USB web-cam, so I wonder why I don't see more DSLR or other upgrades. My first guess is it's just not worth it over streaming; any extra detail is lost to compression. But that's not always the case if good bandwidth exists. Is it just...not...

    Lighting help (pale person here!)

    Hey everyone, I recently moved into a new rental and cannot for the life of me figure out how to light here. I either look all shiny and ghost white, or I look dull/dead.

    Lighting

    I've seen a lot of models comment that when using a greenscreen lighting needs to be excessively bright. I am planning to build a studio for cam and clip making.

    The general guideline for task lighting is that you need about one to three watts per one square foot of space to provide adequate lighting. Does anyone have a guideline for how those numbers would change when trying to design a three point lighting system for a webcam? Those numbers in the...

    Anyone Make Webcam LED Lighting With Diffusers?

    Does any vendor sell a webcam lighting kit that includes LED bulbs *and* a diffuser panel or bulb to help diffuse the light? I know there are kits built around CFL bulbs.

    What do you recommend for lighting?

    What do you recommend for light, especially for a beginner on a budget? I don't necessarily mean cheap budget hacks like using wax paper and a Bayco Clamp Light from Walmart. I'm looking for decent semi-professional lights for someone on a budget. I'm also looking for lights for a compact...

    Lighting Advice?

    Hello there! I'm setting things up to cam and I was wondering about creating good lightning: Does it have to be super bright light? I'm kind of light sensitive and I'd like to create a warm light. I have a Logitech HD Pro Webcam C920. Would I need a "fancier" camera to capture low/warm light...
