Software

Hardware

  • Webcams
    • Any webcam should work, I tend to go with Logitech.
    • I like using ones that are for 780p instead of 1080p.  They both have a similar quality image, but 780p has a narrower field of view, so they tend to pick up less of the background, and allow a more focused headshot. 
    • Ipevo Webcam
  • Video Camera's
    • Under $200 cameras are often not worth the money.  Watch out for fake Amazon.com reviews on them.
    • Look for an external mic input
    • Don't buy the amazon.com package deals.  
    • FHU owns the Canon G40
    • Cellphones are probably one of the best video camera's you will find
    • DSLR for video
      • Many professional video bloggers now use DSLR cameras for video blogging.
      • Advantage
        • Nice high-resolution video's
        • Able to blur the background
      • Disadvantage
        • Limited to 30 minutes of continuous video.  All DSLR's will have this limitation because if they recorded longer they would be classified as a video recorder and subject to higher shipping fees. 
    • Audio
      • People are less forgiving of bad audio than they are of bad video.
      • Headset: Logitech USB H390
      • Microphone: Audio-Technica ATR2100
      • External video camera mic: Rode VideoMic Pro 
        • Careful with less expensive Rode mics or any external mic without a built-in power source. These tend to use the camera for power, and will only work with specific models of video cameras.
      • Wireless Mic: Rode RodeLink
      • Conference Mic: Jabra Speak
