- Mirrorless and DSLR cameras make for THE BEST webcams for streaming but they can get expensive quick. Today I show you an unsung alternative option that is easily the cheapest mirrorless camera you can use for streaming. No, not the Sony A5100 or Canon EOS M200....but the Sony a5000!

Clean HDMI tutorial: czcams.com/video/KOPx_h3VO7E/video.html
Lets talk cameras and tech live on stream! www.twitch.tv/coalitionChris Live every friday at 8pm pacific, feel free to stop by, drop a follow, and lets talk!
Best tutorial on CZcams. I was following this video for some months now and I finally went and bought an a5000 and is working great with my elgato capture card and the thing that I love the most is that the display on the camera still have all the informations while the hdmi is clean ❤
Thanks bro really needed this one , subscribing waiting for the next vid!!
Great video. Thank you! I needed this
Nice video thanks!
🙌 great find. LETS SEE THE FULL HOW TO!
Coming soon!
Useful info thanks
This needs more views.
wow great price and it looks really great as well.
Chris is a legend let's go POG
🤘
Alright pulled the trigger! Should be here in a few days.
Where is your channel my man
How was it?
Ooo might have to use this as a backup or overhead, currently using the G7 for streaming!
Once you go good autofocus, you can never go back lol
Thank you
Great video. Love a good hack 😊 So, I know you're offering a better (comparably priced) option to a web cam here, but do you think - with the right lens - this could work for event live streams (not total high end stuff, but mid range streams of school sports, corporate interviews, that kind of thing)? It would at least likely give better images than a mid range camcorder, I'd imagine? Thanks.
Thanks. Yep.
Appreciate your knowledge in experience put my bid on an A5000 now.
Good luck!
Thx for the vid. Could you tell something about your camera settings please?
Like what? HDMI output is set to 1080p, and any other settings like iso, and white balance depend on your individual lighting situation. I did very little with specific camera settings. Maybe making sure continuous autofocus was turned on and face tracking was enabled
My man!
Good job
i've always wanted a mirrorless camera as my webcam to be honest much more clarity
That’s dope! I use the Sony a5100 and love it, but I have no lens on it…now I’m thinking I might get one.
You use the cam without a lense? 🤔
@@DieTabbi just the one it comes with by default I meant
@@LevelUpmmo Thanks! The one featured in this vid is a solid choice, otherwise sigma 16mm f1.4 is the hot ticket. But pricey.
I have found one locally that comes with a 3.5-5.6/16-50 OSS lense for $275. Not bad. thanks for this option!
Nice! My version of the tutorial for clean HDMI is coming tomorrow so keep an eye out!
@@CoalitionGaming Also, what output resolution are you using in this video? According to the spec sheet, it only does 1080/60 interlaced, not 60p.
@@pauld4238 1080p30fps. Not sure why specs say it only does interlaced but the HDMI output menu has option for 1080p and 1080i.
@@CoalitionGaming Awesome thanks!
I grabbed a A5000 with kit lens based on this. The hack worked like a charm. Any other advice or tutorials on the best camera menu settings for video. I’m a photography noob and this is my first camera.
hey man, thanks for the content! is it possible to live stream straight to Facebook with this cam?
thanks! You can use this cam in programs like Xsplit or OBS Studio to livestream to facebook
Great option! thanks. How do you compare this hack against the use of the camera directly with the video capture card and hdmi connector? I use a mac book laptop and I am not sure if image quality will be the same. What is a clean hdmi connection?
This camera cannot be used in the way demonstrated in this video without this "hack." Clean HDMI means a clean video feed without all the "camera information" like focus box, white balance, shutter speed, etc all showing on the feed
dude thats an amazing price and it looks so much better than a normal usb webcam ill be recommending this to people who are looking for an upgrade over a c920. Dont forget to sub, leave a like, comment and ring that bell also check out chris's video description on where to find him to talk tech ask about pc problems and anything in between hope to see u around
Question bro the usb you have to connect it to do you use an elgato cam link or something else
You use an HDMI capture card. Cheap ones like I used in the testing section of the video are linked in the description. An elgato camlink is only one form of HDMI capture card, many are out there.
I already ordered the câmara and the lens, thanks for the suggestion! Regarding the dummy battery, is it essencial if we are doing 1h, 1h and a half of streaming? Cheers
the battery can last maybe about an hour but id still recommend a dummy battery yeah
@@CoalitionGaming Thanks for your answer! And can I buy one without the charger? I mean, can the dummy battery receive power through the charger that comes with the camera?
dummy batteries are generally their own standalone part that wouldn't have to interact with the stock camera charger
What mic do you use man? And really good video!!🤘🏼
Thanks! The mic is the Avermedia Live Streamer Mic 330
@@CoalitionGaming do you use the Avermedia production controller as well with it?
@@sethbreaux3458 The Nexus? Yes
Hello thank you for the video. I have 2 questions 1) kit lens ( 16-50mm 3,5-5,6) or sony 16mm 2.8mm lens is better in low light and 3-4 feet condition? 2)i have 2 option please choose one a) 232dolars a5100 with kit lens or 167dolars a5000 with 16mm f2.8 lens, with same enviroment condition in question 1?
If the a5100 works perfectly I would go with that
I’m a new Beginner and I was learning towards the Sony NEX-7 because they’re cheap online plus it has a built in mic input & I have a Rode Podmic & the Scarlett 2i2 but I had just found out that it doesn’t have Wifi & I don’t know if you actually have to have wifi to stream or not but I do know that I want to do reaction videos & I just want better video quality then my iPhone 13Pro. Any advice would be well appreciated
You don't need wifi on a camera to stream. A good cheap content creator camera that you can record good videos, use as a webcam (with a HDMI adapter and a capture card), and change lenses depending on what you want would be the Canon EOS M50 Mark ii. The Sony ZV-1 is good option that does all that as well minus the interchangable lens. If you need something cheaper, secondhand Panasonic G7s and G85s also fit the bill but they don't have great autofocus so you'd need to manually focus for face recordings and reactions.
it seems nex-7 has old sony color science programmed in, not best according to reviews, and it is not so convincing with video shooting. it has very good sensor and photos. personally, Im dropping this lead.
I heard there can be some lag while using wi-fi. Have you run into any input lag with OBS and streaming while using this camera as a webcam? Even just a second of delay?
There shouldn't be any issues unless your system is very very low spec
I think I’ll shall hint at Jen that I want this for my birthday lol
Have her shoot me a message to get it figured out so you get the right one :P
Was the entire video filmed with the a-5000? If so I’m sold. I’ve been using my iPhone 13 Max and I’m pretty happy with it.
Yes it was
nice found, dude. but ich found out, that the camera onlay have 1080p24fps ore 1080i50fps. do you recommend to do 1080i? found one for cheap 120€
Should be 1080p. Yes that is a good price.
4:40 you are totally right with that settings save. On Logitech there is no way to save the settings. So bad :( Using Logitech 920c for a 8 years, now thinking for change.
Luckily, at least, I did make a video addressing a way to fix that too
czcams.com/video/KOl25a9fAlo/video.htmlsi=_3_F5mY261g0xsJi
What resolution does the A5000 give whenever you are using it for live streaming on Twitch????
Also, thank you for the video! Very helpful in my search!
This camera can output 1080p to OBS. What you stream to Twitch at depends on how you configure your OBS.
Hey I'm looking for cheap mirrorless camera for a webcam. What I'm worried about 5000 or 5100 is if the mac software can control the shutter/ISO/aperture settings from the mac without touching the camera? Just a few clicks if the light has changed. Is it possible?
Any camera running through an HDMI capture card cannot have those values controlled via software
Would it be worth upgrading from the logitech brio
I'd say so yes
hey man im about to order the a5000 for about 260$ and it comes with the lens and i just ordered a usb capture card would that make me okay for streaming wise for a webcam could u explain how to actually use the usb webcam if not thats fine thanks>
Yeah you only the need the micro HDMI cable then. Checked the linked video in the description
@coalitionGaming does the camera heats after using for hours straight?
I've used it for 6+ hours with no issue
So I’m looking for a camera to use for streaming and I play off my ps5 that is hooked up to a capture card that is hooked up to my laptop. For the Sony A5000 will I need a different capture card for streaming?
Yes. If your current capture card is USB 3.0, then get one of the cheap capture cards I linked in the video description since they are USB 2.0 and can work alongside a USB 3.0 capture card. You just can't have two of the same kind of capture card on the same USB bus/controller.
@@CoalitionGaming okay thank you right now I am looking for the Sony A5000 or A5100 for a reasonable price. Thank you again.
I have a old Canon 550D with a dummy battery connected to my pc, but that one shuts off due Canon restrictions because it's not mirrorless. Do you know a workaround for it or do I have to look for another camera? I know it's not the best option but I choose the 550d because I need a camera to film a crafting desk, not the whole room and it was laying around.
I don't know anything about that camera. Id check the canon eos webcam utility support page to see if it's there and if it isn't, then you'd probably have to sell it and get a different camera
Magic lantern. Use it at your own risk.
Is it possible to use it as webcam too in discord and such?
Yeah.
Any issue with overheating? I plan on dummy battery and not recording to the cam itself.
No issue I've seen. Ran it for 6+ hours once we well.
@@CoalitionGaming Thanks dude! Just ordered one on eBay.
What camera did you use on this video?? It looks great
The entire video was shot on the camera the video is about
@CoalitionGaming really? It looks different when you did the comparison of the logtiech and the a5000... thee a5000 looks different to your main camera on your video how is that? Os it a different lens? Or do you have filters on obs too??? Thanks for the reply and video btw !!!!
@@ZkReAr-fs5do same camera the whole time. Lighting may have changed and yes optimizations with a little color correction and maybe sharpness filters on OBS but nothing crazy. Same camera, same lens, the whole video.
Would you say that these are good for solo/guest podcasting?
I currently have a settup using nexigo and auki webcams , they’re ehh but I definitely want better video quality.
Yeah they're fine for that sure. Just cross check with prices of the newer a5100. They've come down in price
@@CoalitionGaming ok thank you, i'll check those out
do you have a 30 minute time limit for recording or streaming? I'm using a Canon EOS 600D and really frustrated by its 30 minute time limit, I cannot stream like this.
I've ran them for around 6-7 hours without issue
@@CoalitionGaming how? My shutter turns off and HDMI stops displaying camera footage on my computer.
@@emmadulhassan8039 sounds like you didn't follow the guide to apply the clean HDMI hack. There is a step that addresses the record limit.
My issue is battery life ? And keeping it running for a longer live stream
Dummy battery is addressed in the video and linked in description
I picked one up with a kit lens E 3.5-5.6/PZ 16-50 OSS. I followed the clean HDMI tutorial but the out put is very grainy compared to my C920....... what am I doing wrong? Is it the lens? Please help I picked this up for better quality but its worse.... I have played around with the settings but no mater what I do its sill grainy...
Clean both side of the lens and try your capture card in a different USB port, maybe a different HDMI cable too. Make sure your iso setting isnt on auto, iso can introduce grain, and that any sharpness settings in camera aren't maxed out. A little bit is okay but sharpness cranked is not.
@@CoalitionGaming thanks for the quick reply. I have been messing around with it for hours and sometimes it’s grainy other times it goes away. I guess it could any part. I shelled out for the cam link thinking I’ll upgrade to a better camera again in the future might as well pull the trigger now. I changed ports, cables, adjusted lights and settings. Uhg now I feel I wasted my time and money.
Return it, if you can. Sounds like either the lens or the camera is a dud. Have you tested the camera using it like a normal camera and seeing if it has issues that way too?
@@CoalitionGaming not able to return it…. My fault as seller listed as not accepting returns. It does seem to work fine when taking pictures or recording directly to the camera…… not a lot of info about this issue. Some say a different lens is needed and others say recording directly to the camera while also outputting to HDMI clears it up….
You should try it with more light than with your webcam setup
how abut sony a6000?
A6000 has clean HDMI output so you don't need to do any workarounds
Can I live streaming with sony zve-10 for 3 hours continuously in CZcams
Using it like a webcam thru a PC? I would think so. I don't think it has overheating issues
@@CoalitionGaming thanks sir
as I would like live at 1080p with capture Card , is it ok
So which one is the best?
Which what?
Is this still a viable streaming option in late 2023?
This camera? For sure, just get it cheap
Over here in Malaysia, the A5000 used price is $250 - 300 :(
even used? :(
@@CoalitionGaming Yes that is the used price. I got Nikon 1 V2 deal for 100 bucks, but doesn't have clean hdmi :(
:(
Is a 4k camera even necessary though? CZcams only supports 1080p as does twitch right? I'm using a Logitech c920 and yours definitely looks way better so there IS that lol.
Well this isn't 4k either. This is doing 1080p. Image quality from a camera also factors in sensor size and lens, it's not just about resolution.
@@CoalitionGaming OK that makes sense. I'd love to step up to a little bit better image quality and maybe something like the a5000 is the ticket. It looks a lot warmer than my webcam
A little color correction (filter in OBS on that video source) on it also goes a long way too!
does alpha 5000 have clean hdmi?
@@GuiUFL that's covered in this video and the tutorial to get clean HDMI is talked about and linked in the description and pinned comment
@@CoalitionGaming Thank you very much for your feedback, does it get very hot or will I be able to stream smoothly for 5 hours without freezing?
@GuiUFL won't overheat
@@CoalitionGaming Does the Sony A3000 have HDMI clean? or only a5000 onwards?
@@GuiUFL don't know
What if i'm going to be streaming outside 14 ft from my router? What should I use?
If the camera is connected to your PC, I don't see the issue being 14 feet from a router?
@@CoalitionGaming But it should be a Outdoor camera right? Go pro or something equivalent right? im serious, i know nothing about this. Camera Recommendations??
I dont understand. Why would it have to be an outdoor camera? What are you trying to do?
sony a51
Will it stream in 1080p?
It does 1080p yes
@@CoalitionGaming thank you
Does this camera needs sonny utility?
No. Tutorial instructions linked at end of this video, in the description, and in the pinned comment
@@CoalitionGaming im sorry wrote on to different vid. My bad. But I’ve got another question, do you need sd card to have inside or it fine as it’s connected via hdmi?
@@laurh1s312 SD card isn't needed
@@CoalitionGaming thank you. As I’ve got Nikon and it’s as far as i see it’s no go.
Well this video is specifically about the Sony A5000...
Hey Dude! Great vid. But i couldn't stop noticing that your beard is about to grow up into your eyeballs! Lol. Just poking some innocent fun, i got a lot out of this video
yeah it does that lol
eBay is showing these for $200-400 body only right now.
Supply might be running low since it's been out of production for a while, but the a5100 has come down in price a little bit as well so might be worth looking into those too. Found an a5000 on eBay with a lens already for $276, or an a5100 body only for $299. You may also want to check your local market (offerUp, FB marketplace) like mentioned in the video. I've picked up 2 more a5000s and an a5100 for great prices locally since this video was shot. Just found an a5100 with a lens for $275. No hack needed with that one, would just need dummy battery and cheap capture card.
You remind me of Boba Fett.
how so?
@@CoalitionGaming You just look similar to a young Temuera Morrison lol.
@@AstralAlien 👍
@@CoalitionGaming do you have any opinion on the Sony ZV-1F?
its a worse version of the ZV-1 but it does have clean hdmi and does decent 1080p and 4k. No optical stabilization but if you don't mind the crop, the digital stabilization works fine. Clean HDMI for use as a webcam too. Its probably the best camera in its price class for what it can do for you.
You really can't find 5100s lol
I find em all the time, and scored a few this year for friends as well as a few a5000s like featured in this video. Sometimes the a5000s are priced just so much better than the a5100s though.
"budget"
For a mirrorless camera? Absolutely. Even found one on OfferUp last night for $85.
Bro please let me line up yout beard 😄
In some videos beard maybe good, in some videos beard maybe shit
In this one is better: czcams.com/video/jBXB0ywrX8A/video.html
looks like a good webcam but not close to a profesional camera, I say money wasted
If you think spending a similar amount of money on a webcam setup when this is in the same price range then I'm not entirely sure where you head is at on this. If you're saying save the money and spend it on more expensive mirrorless camera, lens, and capture card setup then you are completely out of touch with the target audience of this solution.
your setup is way too dark man..
thats a preference thing. how can you tell him whats too dark or light?
