Mevo Start Live Streaming Camera - WiFi & Bluetooth Enabled

We use this camera to stream youth baseball games for family and friends who can't be in person to see the games. Also, we're able to get clips of the kids. The integration with our scoring app makes this camera the easiest to use for our needs.

I get to watch my grand children play that are 3 hours away in real time!

I started with one, and I didn't like it as much as my GoPro. Why? Because the GoPro has a touch screen and I can navigate it easier, at first at least. I found the Mevo to be difficult to use, not intuitive and I went back and forth between GoPro and Mevo at my son's baseball games.Then I saw a baseball team using 3 Mevo cameras at once and the unbleivable elevated levels of video experience that provides.So I got a second camera and the multicam Mevo app. Once I got that app it took me about 2 hours of setting up test games in Game Changer to figure out how to connect the video and then how to manage it during the game. Oh my, pleasantly surprised, ONCE I figured it out. What's nuts is I found, through trial and error that I had to use the GoPro URL in my Mevo RTMP settings to get the video to work. I used the Mevo stream key as well. Once I figured out that using the GoPro urk worked, things got way easier. Getting the videos connected to Game Changer was super simple and then I got comfortable with the software. Crop and zoom, input quality, manually switching between cameras and using the Director feature. It's so awesome.Needless to say, I just ordered my 3rd camera and I'm psyched to get it.One camera will slice from the pitcher to 3B, then one camera focused right up the middle and one camera will slice from the pitcher to 1B.There needs to be better instructions on how to use the Mevo multi cameras. There's a gap for sure. So long as you're willing to do some tinkering and watch a video or two, you'll master it and when you do you'll forget about any other devices you have.Mevo Multicam for the win!

VERY GOOD CAMERA

The Mevo Start is a great camera for live streaming or for recording. It is good for those getting started in streaming. It is reasonably priced and has a lot of great features. You can live stream to most any service. The camera can be connected via Wi-Fi or with Ethernet (requires a separate adapter). Wi-Fi works well if you have good access points and signals. Streaming quality will depend on your upload speeds. Recording are saved directly to the camera but you will need get a micro-SD card as it does not come with one, but those are so affordable. You will need an Android or iOS tablet or phone to work with the camera. There is an app that controls and configures the camera.There is a built in microphone that works well. You can also alternatively connect an external sound source to the Aux 3.5 mm jack. It is configurable for Mic level input or Line level input (like sound board). There are level controls for audio within the app. It fits on most any tripod (standard 1/4 screw). I found battery life to be 4-5 hours which should be good in most cases. There is a USB-C connector on the camera that can be used for external power or ethernet adapter. Indicator LED on the front of the camera tells you the connection status and I believe can also act as a Tally light.One of the nice features is digital zoom. You can view what the camera sees from within the app. The app also lets you zoom the camera view in and out. You can also move a zoomed box around with the full field of the camera, so it almost like having PTZ. The video feed is quite good and there are settings for things like low lighting and outdoor.Camera looks and feels well built. There is no lens cover so you might want to get a case for it.The camera can also be configured as an NDI source and it works great with OBS, zoom and all.Good starter and can still be used in more advanced setups (like OBS). Keep in mind that the app can only be used with one camera at a time (you can move back and forth between cameras). A multi-cam app is being developed and is currently in Beta at this time.
