Re: Good camera for live streaming outdoor events?

A more compact solution would be camera with USB streaming support, e.g. Sony A7M4, attach to android phone and stream online. But I think there are caveats like no Audio, and of course I don't see how that can run for hours. Maybe with a battery adapter to keep the camera going but the camera won't charge the phone AFAIK. The FX6 can charge the phone while attached via usb-c but that's not exactly a cheap camera 😅

Or get the Sony Xperia pro phone, it has HDMI input, separate usb charging input and comes with software for streaming from HDMI. Expensive device too but allows for a compact set-up with any camera.
