Suggestions for a Digital Video Camera that streams live to HDMI?
I'm looking for a digital video camera that streams live to HDMI, ideally 720p. The intention is to connect the camera directly to a TV with a HDMI input without going via a VGA converter or a video capture board. The purpose is to display a bench-top demonstration to my class.
So far I have found lots of digital camcorders that will output recorded video to HDMI, in the Flip HD and Sanyo Xacti range for example, but I want the camera to output a live feed. I don't need the recording facilities, so would be happy with something that is like a web cam or CCTV camera as long as it had a HDMI output not a USB connection. The closest I have found so far is something like the Canon EOS 7D, Sony HVR or specialist cameras designed for microscopes, all of which are rather expensive and rather bulky. Ideally I'd be looking for a mid-range digital video camera output live feed to HDMI. Any suggestions?
