    I need to buy this!!!! I’m so freaking done with my cam link. I have been streaming for 2 years and now making some money with a lovely community going, and it’s so unbelievably frustrating for my camera to disconnect during stream, it happens more often than not and made me almost want to quit streaming.

    I just bought the exact same one for $0.50 cents! My question is.... can I use it to hook my phone to an HDMI device such as a smart TV or monitor? Using a usb-c to usb-c cord

    The question I have is, does it upscale to 60fps (1080) on the fly, or is that through the software?

    I've got that Soomfon, and I get intermittent stuttering using an AX53 camcorder outputting 1080p 50fps (PAL). Ends up falling to 25fps, and it may recover back to 50fps, or it may not. Does this happen for you? Doesn't make sense, as the CPU and GPU are very low utilization. Any ideas please?

    Hello. I purchased the Soomfon and using a Sony a6400. My screen recording software is Screenflow and I can’t seem to produce a quality video recording. I have the camera set to 4K however the quality I’m getting is only good for 720p. Any idea why that is. Your video quality looks awesome! Great video by the way.

    Have you got it plugged into a usb 3 port? And also using the included usb cable. You could also try it with obs to confirm you can get a 4k signal and that’s it’s not screenflow causing the issue.

    Hey buddy UK here....got this yesterday for my a6500 and mac....I used QuickTime and created new movie recording but the capture output file is always showing as 1080p resolution....have you managed to record a 4k video on your Mac using QuickTime? Can you try and let me know if you do? You will need to click display the inspector window in QuickTime menu bar to see what you get when you record...cheers mate.😊
