Elgato Cam Link 4K Video Capture Card, Black

The Elgato Cam Link 4K is an external video capture card that connects digital cameras to a computer via a USB 3.2 Gen 1 connection. It converts HDMI signals from DSLRs, camcorders, or action cameras into a standard webcam-style input. It supports a maximum resolution of 3840×2160 pixels for streaming or recording software. By saving footage directly to a local drive, you can bypass camera recording limits. Low-latency performance ensures the video signal stays synchronized during live broadcasts, and the unit works with both laptops and desktops without the need for internal PCIe slots.

The device is compatible with Windows and macOS and requires at least an Intel Core i5-4xxx processor. As a compact, external peripheral, it is designed for portability. It is plug-and-play, meaning no manual driver installation is necessary. The unit captures unencrypted HDMI signals for digital production, allowing you to use your camera for live broadcasting in place of a standard webcam.
