USB CAMERAS

LOGITECH C-920

The least expensive webcam option, but still great quality! It’s HD video at 1080p and has dual built-in mics (though we recommend using a separate microphone!)

LOGITECH C-922

This is about the same as the C-920, only giving you the ability to stream at 60fps. If you’re not sure what that is, get the C-920.

LOGITECH C-930

This has the widest field of view of the Logitech series

LOGITECH BRIO 4K

This is the most expensive of the Logitech Webcams. It is also 4K. Has much better dynamic range than the other two, but at a higher cost.

Be sure to download Webcam Settings Software to get fine tuned adjustments to the quality of your video from the above webcams! Available on a Mac or PC.

HIGHER QUALITY CAMERAS

SONY A6100

This is our favorite DSLR (ahem… Mirrorless camera)! 

SONY A5100

Great budget option!

Sigma Lens 16mm f1.4 (for sony)

This is the lens Luria uses on her set. Be aware the lenses are a personal choice based on the look you’re going for!!!

CAPTURE CARD (FOR HIGHER QUALITY CAMERAS)

ELGATO CAMLINK

In order to bring in a camera that is NOT USB (like a DSLR), you’ll need a Capture Card. You can get an Elgato Cam Link that allows your Level 2, 3 or 4 setup to bring in an HDMI camera for your LIVE Videos.

Watch this video to learn more!

AJA U-TAP

The AJA U-Tap is our favorite capture card. While it’s plain, it’s a solid piece of gear and works very consistently! It’s what we put in our client’s Studios that we build.

blackmagic internal capture card

If you have a PC with an open PCIe slot, you can use this Capture Card internally instead of the others which are external cards.

MICROPHONES

SAMSON METEOR MIC

Great SMALL, portable microphone! The legs fold up for travel. If you’re not moving the mic from location to location, get one of the other microphones. You’ll need a stand or to prop this one up to get closer to your mouth (it sits low).

BLUE YETI NANO

This is one of our favorites if you’re an iPhone user. They do have a model that works on Android, but it does not work with all of them, so you need to go to their site and see if they have one for your device.

AUDIO-TECHNICA ATR2100

This has USB and XLR connections for flexibility depending on your setup. You’ll need a boom holder or stand to hold this.

Lewitt 240 pro

When you’re ready to move away from USB and go for an XLR mic. You’ll need a USB mixer and a boom arm as well.

goxlr usb mixer

The GoXLR isn’t just any ol’ mixer. It’s the most FUN mixer you’ll ever own! Bleep out words. Add sound effects. Give yourself some reverb. Control volume. And LOTS more! 

LIGHTING

prismatic colored ring lights

These ring lights give you a ton of flexibility since you can control the color and temperature through an iPhone app!

Use Coupon Code “LSP”

Neewer Ring light

A less expensive ring light but still a great option! White light only (no changing colors like the Prismatic above)

neewer box light kit

This Box Light kit gives you two lights for each side of your face. Bigger footprint but casts a wider light surface.

neewer LED Light

This is a very small footprint, and is LED. It’s dimmable and you can control the temperature. GREAT option for a hair light!

background / accent light

A great way to add some accent lighting to your background. Multiple colors and lots of adjustments available!

PCS

HP Omen

Great laptop option for streaming with vMix!

ALIENWARE AREA 51M

Our recommendation if you want something portable with more power!

Alienware aurora r9

*drool* We LOVE the Alienware for streaming! It’s a Powerhouse… plus it has cool fancy lights!
