Great Camera!

We do streaming at church and this camera is very functional. I was looking for specifics features like XLR connectors, SDI and to be able to stream, and last not least the price. Adorama have the best price and very professional staff making sure I got the camera on time and good conditions. Thank you, I'll recommend this camera for this type of venue.
