Why would it make sense to get a mirrorless webcam like the YoloCam S7 instead of a full-featured mirrorless camera like the Sony ZV-E10? I want to add a bit of context for this super interested “webcam” because while it might not be the perfect choice for everyone, there are certain people and workflows where it can solve a ton of problems.

This video is not sponsored, but I’ve worked with YoloLiv on sponsored videos in the past (which is how I ended up with two S7’s). Read my Ethics Statement about reviews, sponsorships, and brand partnerships: himynameistom.com/ethics
