Hye guys. Sorry but need help on this matter.
Can i know how can i use dslr so that it can be connected to facebook live?

Im doing few events for my cause. Before this, we're using phone which is iphone 6(my friend) and s7.

But the problem is, sometimes the resolution not good enough to the viewer.

It just 2-3 hrs programme, and less mobility of the camera.

Hope somebody here can help me out.

if resolution is your problem then I doubt using a better camera (or even DSLR, if it's possible) will help you. both already shoot at least 1080p, already on par with most DSLRs.

FB live depends more on the network connection, yours and also your viewers. if your phone is getting good wifi, resolution shouldn't be a problem. dont forget powerbanks too tongue.gif

but if you're trying to get better colours etc, then maybe DSLR is worth looking into. Havent tried myself but this guide appears to be useful: https://reefbum.com/photography-videography...-facebook-live/
