can this camera be used for live broadcasting?

Its not designed for that purpose. There are better cameras for live broadcast.

Yes, we do. But we have to convert HDMI to HD-SDI using a blackmagic box to send it to our switcher. The length of the run is too long on HDMI, and few switchers have HDMI inputs.

Yes, I have used mine a few times for live broadcasting using the hdmi port.

You can record, however, it's not a CCTV camera, I suspect that's what you're looking for.

Yes you just need a DVR that has the capabilities to do it. There is also an app that allows you to see live from your phone.

This type of camera would require some form of a dvr to accept the signal. I would suggest you look into a wifi camera that has its own software where you could view from anywhere. You of course would need wifi at your mothers house though.

Yes you should be able to. It supports MIDI connectivity. Also, you could use the AUX and hook it to an interface to record live sound.

Greetings; yes you can watch live as it records to what ever device you are recording to. It has great quality for the size of the LCD.

Sorry man, your thinking of live video feeds, this camera is not able to do that. I wish it did but all it does is capture and do playbacks.

Yes, the camera has a pretty decent set of tools/services/options built into it. It will be necessary to forward the IP ports on your router/firewall in order to view it. You will want to purchase the Blue Iris software to go along with this camera anyway for advanced DVR recording. It will also let you stream live as well as playback from archive. The Blue Iris software will be much easier to work with rather than the camera software. The picture quality is amazing.

The camera would be fine although someone needs to man the remote to move it as appropriate. The microphone would not work well at that distance, I ended up using a MXL AC-404 (from Amazon) and it works flawlessly. I also route the sound out of this to portable speaker system if the crowd is more than 10-15 people, otherwise the built in speaker is fine. Our tech club has used this to webcast large meetings (40-60 people) in a large multi-purpose room (2000sf) and using the other microphone and the speaker output, it makes for a very professional presentation. In a much smaller venue, the device itself would be sufficient.

I had it set up for live video's, but had to have an IT guy set it up. I my opinion it is to difficult for the average computer user to do himself. The camera itself worked for a couple of weeks and then quit altogether.

I would say Yes. This is a network camera, to use it to just record to view later would be a waste of money. The greatest advantage is to download the Dlink APP, then I can view with a phone, or tablet that supports that APP. We use our existing Cable Companies internet modem / Wireless router. Our camera is on our home WiFi. Newer Smart TV's probably could be used to set up door views, although we only use to watch our dog when we are not home. I can see it also to be used as a baby monitor situation, or to watch baby sitters although I think you have to tell them you video monitor ( without showing the cameras location). Not sure if that helps.

Yes , this Sony Camcorder do support live feed whenever you connected an HDMI cable directly on a HDTV. -Ely

I haven't tried to use it for that, so I don't know. I use it to record local sports reports for a radio station.

Blackmagicdesign offers higher-end models for broadcasting. The Cinema cameras (Pocket, Cinema, 4K), while you could possibly use it for streaming in Video Mode instead of Film Mode, these cameras are really geared towards a different workflow where you'll benefit more from manipulating the image in post-production. So I'd get something else that's easier to shoot with and can better accommodate the needs specific to online streaming. I'm not sure of the output size from the micro HDMI port, I only know that others have had issues with it not working on some monitors. here's an article providing more info: http://provideocoalition.com/atepper/story/which-blackmagic-camera-models-output-live-native-progressive-and-when

The video camera does have a live feed option through ustream. It would technically stream through the Internet to a computer. I'm sure there is an output cable to go from the camera to the computer, but I haven't done that, so I don't know for sure.

There is an app on this device which connects to UStream.tv site, You can have live telecast for the recording. The recording can also be saved and published to youtube from ustream site. That is the only Wifi capability this camera has. The app is little difficult to use on the camera and interface is not well done. I bought this because this was the cheapest camera which could do live broadcast. Other camera's were too expensive. It did a decent job, my wifi signal was strong and I had the camera close to the router. Hope this helps.... -Ashish.

As far as I know, it doesn't live stream. I upload to my computer and edit. The import cable/port is not a very good design on this camera. I bought 8 of these cameras for my classroom and 2 1/2 years later, only 2 of them will import.
