Sony FX30 Digital Cinema Camera with XLR Handle Unit and 10-20mm Lens Kit

From personal experience: First, as mentioned in another response, the maximum clip length of this camera is 13 hours. The camera can be powered through its USB-C port - as long as it also has a battery inserted in the camera at the same time. The USB power can come from a wall plug or a computer's USB-C port - such as if you wanted to use it as a webcam or for livestreaming, or you can use a power bank such as: Belkin BoostCharge Pro 3-Port Laptop Power Bank (20,000mAh, Black) BH # BEBPB020BTBK MFR # BPB020TTBK This power bank gives you about ten hours of power. If the camera will be used for more than 2 hours - about the time you get from an internal battery, it's definitely a good idea to get a power bank, as then you can forget about power and having to change batteries. By the way, if you unplug the USB cable by mistake (which happens – or to lend it to someone), it will automatically switch dynamically to the internal battery. That means that even in middle of recording, it continues without a hitch. It switches dynamically regardless of the USB cable power source (bank, wall or computer). Of course, the same goes for plugging in the USB cable – it switches dynamically from internal battery to USB power. (I’m not sure if the internal battery needs to have some charge left for this to work, but it’s certainly a good idea, as mentioned.) For a tripod, get a Velcro holder pouch for the bank - such as: Ruggard MS-100 Equipment Mounting Strap BH # RUMS100 MFR # MS-100 Ideally, Velcro it onto the handle, so that whichever way you pan the head, it will not tangle around the neck. There are also dummy batteries, as hectorm mentioned, with cables to connect various batteries and power sources – ideal perhaps if you already have some older battery type and/or perhaps if you need to use the USB-C port for something else. Under accessories, see ‘Battery Plates’ and ‘Power Cable Adapters’.

The Sony FX30 Digital Cinema Camera (B&H# SOFX30) will output video for livestreaming through its HDMI port, and yes, that would require an HDMI capture device. However, if you will accept a lower resolution option, it can also be used for livestreaming through the USB C port to a computer.
