Great question! The 4K S can do it but is purpose-built for game consoles like PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Switch 2 via clean, unencrypted HDMI. For a camcorder, our Cam Link 4K is the product designed specifically for that use case — it turns nearly any HDMI camera (camcorders, DSLRs, mirrorless) into a USB webcam your PC or Mac recognizes in OBS, Zoom, and most streaming apps, which is ideal for live streaming a school event. If you'd like to confirm whether your specific camcorder model has a clean HDMI output that will work, our team at help.elgato.com is happy to look into it with you.
