Hi Talk Photography!

Context: I recently updated my Macbook pro to Big Sur OS, which is not compatible with Canon's EOS Webcam Utility. This means I can no longer use my Canon EOS 700D to record videos—on Zoom and Riverside.fm—in real-time directly onto my mac.

Question: Do you know a suitable camera body that I can use to record podcast interviews over Zoom?

Camera criteria:

1. Must be compatible with Sigma lenses (the kind that work with Canon)

2. Must have an HDMI port. This is so it can integrate with the Elgato Cam Link I am planning on buying which will let me use the camera as a webcam. (If you have suggestions for a better way to approach using the Sigma lens as a webcam, please share!)

3. The cheaper the better

Thanks for any advice you can offer.

Keep your 700D and convert the HDMI out to usb. Something like elgato cam link will work fine.
