Choosing our first point-and-shoot camera can be a daunting task. There are so many cameras on the market, and at various price points. Do we need the most expensive model? Do we need the one with the longest zoom range? There’s a lot to consider, and a lot of options on the market, but which is right for us? Set tech specs aside and focus on the basics.

If you’re starting a video podcast or looking to get into live streaming, you’ve come to the right place. I have experience with both, so I speak from personal experience when I say you’ll need a capable computer to do either. What kind of computer exactly? Thankfully, the answer is simple.
For the time being, I can’t suggest building your own PC just for this. The prices of memory (or RAM) have skyrocketed due to the demands of AI infrastructure. In many cases, the price of memory has even surpassed some pre-built systems I’ve seen. The good
