 Today, I received a very interesting device, the HDMI video capture card. Let's open it up and see what this device is all about. Inside the box is this. There is no brand name on this device. It simply says HDMI video capture. On one side is a USB 2.0 port and on the other side is an input for HDMI. It also comes with a small USB extension cord. What this device does is it connects to any external device that supports HDMI output such as a camcorder, receives the input and then converts that input into USB which then is read in your computer as a video source. In my case, I purchased this device to connect my DSLR camera which I can then use for live streaming or to use as a webcam for zoom or other online meetings. When you connect the device, it appears as a video source on your PC and you can use it as a web camera for example in an online meeting. When we check the video sources, we will find a new video source called USB Video. Click on that and now the input changes to the DSLR camera and that can be now used as a web camera. And this is the result. If I were to compare this product to its more expensive competitor the Elgato Cam Link, Cam Link is not compatible with all camera models. I had tried it with my Nikon DSLR and it was not working. This on the other hand simply works. When I purchased this product, I paid $40 from Amazon but today I see it is listed for only $30. But I have also seen it available on eBay for much lower, sometimes as low as $15. So you can try it from eBay. Overall I must say that my initial impression is favourable and I am looking forward to using my Nikon camera as a web camera for all my online meetings.
