Re: Canon 77d, t7i, m series 2017

Re: Tricking Skype into thinking XF305 is a webcam...

I used to plug my Sony XDCAM HD 350 into my computer via FW and used Manycam. That was some time ago, but it did indeed work. For awhile there, I had the world's most expensive webcam.

Re: Costa Rica

I added the XStar Premium to my personal fleet in late June. The Sony Exmor sensor, coupled with some really good glass yields some very nice imagery.

I like the orange color availability also.
