  • *Need Game Capture HD
    You don't need Elgato's new Camlink to use your DSLR or camcorder directly on your PC or Mac as a webcam, all you need is any capture card, like Elgato's own Game Capture HD, and the cables that come with it.

    So I have a question. I have a similar camcorder, and it has a built capture card/sd card slot. Do I still need an external capture card to plug it in, or can I just plug in hdmi cable from my adapter to my monitor? (btw, my camcorder is a Canon Vixia HF R20. Don't know if that helps or anything.) Thanks.

      You cant just plug in into your monitor, because then you just see your camcorder on your screen. And a sd card it something totally different from a capture card, so you dont have a capture card built in.
