@Stream415 3 месяца назад

Have you found a lens that will give a full wide 3rd to 1st shot through a fence? Something like a 9mm M4/3 might be close 20' back from home plate? Wanting to see the quality on wide and figure out the mounting/fence-hole logistics before I consider adding this to my kit. TY.

@ChainLinkParent 3 месяца назад

I'm glad that Mevo / Logitech is actually innovating - that's a positive. This camera misses the mark for me for several reasons, starting with the price. For $1,000 it better tickle my pickle, and it doesn't. Low frame rate means the only thing this has a chance at replacing is an existing Mevo product, or a several-generations-old competitors product. Very much like the ability to swap lenses, the problem with that though is now I would have to carry around a bunch of different lenses to match up with the shot that I'm looking to get, and lenses tend to not like brick dust and other things present at baseball fields. I think the Nearstream solution for this is much more elegant, 1/2 the price, and the camera itself is much better. There's just not enough here to justify the massive price disparity between Mevo products, much less several competitors already on the market. Major swing-and-a-miss from Logitech, imo.

@bassboatconcepts3866 3 месяца назад

well said

@JasonHoffmanYT 3 месяца назад

Thanks for the feedback. While I'll use it at the ballpark a lot of folks will only use it indoors.

@ChainLinkParent 3 месяца назад

@@JasonHoffmanYT For sure, I know the target audience has a large use case set. Even with a use case being primarily indoors, there's much better options already available for cheaper, and with better quality. The more I think about this camera, the more of a head-scratcher it is for me. I've now run across another video that broke the internals of the camera down, and they're claiming the sensor isn't a full 4/3... and they state in the video that the sensor itself should be much cheaper than a 'regular' 4/3 sensor because of it, and were expecting a $3-400 price tag based on the components in the camera. Whoops.

@JasonHoffmanYT 3 месяца назад

Wow, havent seen this one.

@ZagatoZee 3 месяца назад

Price per body is on par with the closest direct competitor, but the "eco system cost" is much better here on the Mevo, since you're not having to buy something like an ATEM. Some silly compromises have been made however. USB ports that don't have locks, no ethernet port at all, entirely beholden to software to have any utility at all - meaning an operational life span can only be trusted as 3 years. A great sounding product for the exact target audience, but the compromises seriously limit the market that would be interested in it.

@boomfyer89 3 месяца назад

Boy I was not expecting that price tag 🤯😵

@andremarshalljr 3 месяца назад

How far away can you have them and does the metal fence cause any issues? Thanks

@JasonHoffmanYT 3 месяца назад

From device to camera is 100ft line of sight. Fences will lower this number.

@draxxicek 3 месяца назад

It is a great product, I am looking forward to testing it myself. The price though is a bit tough to swallow, since it is almost the same as Blackmagic’s Micro Studio Camera and twice of a used GH5. I know these do not come with a wireless option, but still… I am very curious to see how tight the Core cams are latency-wise, also how (if there even is any) well the autofocus performs and how reliable the wireless solution is in real urban spaces (what router would be best for the core -pun intended- of a cempletely mobile multicam setup).

@JasonHoffmanYT 3 месяца назад

Yeah, I don't see parents who stream 12u baseball buying a 3 pack. BUT having one of these in my bag with my other cameras gives me a foundation shot that is top notch. I'm looking forward to a mobile mesh system on wifi6 from one of the major players. A friend recently talked about how that might work...

@draxxicek 3 месяца назад

@@JasonHoffmanYTwell, it sure made a couple of other companies a bit nervous. I was sharing the very first leaked pics a few days ago in the Yololiv user group and got DM by Frank immediately. The group also guesses that is might be one of the cameras you were hinting you are testing. And they immediately released two videos about their MFT camera, which is obviously still in development.

@johndixon1286 3 месяца назад

Jason, I'm thinking of using the Mevo Core for live-streaming worship gatherings... wondering if you have recommendations for Lenses (we have our camera about 10-20 feet away from a small stage), and if you have experience with external microphones. We currently plug in a Rode Wireless Go to a Mevo Start and set the receiving mic on the podium, but Its not ideal... Would love to know your thoughts!

@JasonHoffmanYT 3 месяца назад

I’m just getting time with different lenses but the Olympus 14-42 EZ I’m using for content creation should be a good choice from this distance. How many mics are you needing to run for your setup?

@hoochthefireman 3 месяца назад

Hey Tony, I have stretched the limit on this camera to 300-ft line of sight using only one Slate AX 1800. A fence was in the way, and I would drop the signal once in a while. I added a second Slate AX 1800 this week to act as a repeater, and it was rock solid. I did not monitor the network to see the signal strength, as that isn't my wheelhouse on how to do that but it worked.

@JasonRichardsSD 3 месяца назад

After reading all of these comments, its not clear that this is entirely a win for the baseball streaming crew. My specific goals would be backstop mounted full field view 1080 streaming (somehow an improvement over Mevo Start quality) with simultaneously 4k recording which gets uploaded later. It seems this should accomplish this.

@JasonHoffmanYT 3 месяца назад

I have a game on my community channel (@MyTownUSA) with this as the backstop camera. I think it was the Elkhart vs Franklin game.

@josh8309 3 месяца назад

Jason, what’s your take on setting this thing up behind home plate? That’s an expensive camera with an expensive lens that looks like it will be exposed. Any chance you’re ruminating over 3D printed cases that might offer protection?

@JasonHoffmanYT 3 месяца назад

I did on last Tuesday's game. It was able to peek thru the chain link and not make contact by mounting to the pole via a cctv mount. I stream games to MyTown_USA channel.

@josh8309 3 месяца назад

@@JasonHoffmanYT Thanks. Would be interested to see your setup. I typically use a magnet mount and attach to a pole holding the chain link. Truthfully though this results in 1-2 fouls a season knocking the thing off or at least moving it enough that I need to fix it. The Start kept on going, but I worry a more exposed lens would be a problem. (I'm really just trying to have you make 3D Printr go Brrr)

@JasonHoffmanYT 3 месяца назад

@@josh8309 My usual magnet mount was just a little bit less than I was comfortable with on this camera. It will not be hard to design a 3d print as it is just a cube but it won't include lens protection.

Exciting times!

@marcus_cole_2 3 месяца назад

Question: Have you tested whether the Logitech memo core can be transformed into a full-fledged camcorder with HDMI/USB-C out, a shotgun mic, an LED panel, and video over ethernet with PoE all at the same time, considering it has two USB-C ports and possibly full-blown specs including Bluetooth, audio in/out, Wi-Fi, USB storage, SD card storage, and a 3.5mm jack? If so, this could potentially be the coolest product, as you could attach almost any lens within reason and mobile walk around with it, capturing the action in real-time while someone else receives the feed via video over Ethernet or Wi-Fi, with SD card backup. Additionally, an individual could use OBS or Mevo software to switch among any cameras, essentially creating a full consumer-level video recording system with multiple previews. Wouldn't that be awesome? Another big question is, while I highly doubt it, I'm wondering if Logitech actually listened to one of the emails I sent them. We probably all sent similar letters, and that's how they got this product going.

@JasonHoffmanYT 3 месяца назад

I have not but you are describing an incredible setup!

@glennrankin4976 3 месяца назад

They use 18650 Lithium-Ion batteries, but they can't be swapped out. Eventually, those batteries will die and we'll be left with a $1000 brick (barring a way to swap them without destroying the case). Really excited about the camera though. It's about the same price as a BMD studio micro, so I'm wondering if the extra streaming features are worth it.

@JasonHoffmanYT 3 месяца назад

They can be swapped out. The unboxing video Mevo released today mentions the interchangeable batteries. So it wont be a brick because of batteries.

@fyi1rob 3 месяца назад

This is a miss for sports. Having an attached lens will benefit protected inside streamers, but like everything else out there, sports streamers are still left with something that has potential but needs more protection and is priced out of the market. Maybe that market is too small. I had hopes that we would see a rugidized Mevo Start, an affordable "tough" camera. This jumps the shark and tries to make a good affordable product line into an expensive premium product.

@JasonHoffmanYT 3 месяца назад

The goal may be to push into an unreached market segment. It will not replace the Mevo Start but indoor venues can benefit greatly from the quality of a main camera with Starts being the additional shots. It would be awfully expensive to take a foul ball... Thanks for the input!

New in 2024, around 1000$? And then the cost of the lens?
