Hollyland’s new dedicated live-streaming camera, the VenusLiv V2, offers powerful image-processing functions and promises the ability to go live with one tap.
The new Hollyland VenusLivV2 features a raft of pre-installed apps that have been designed to enable one-touch streaming on a variety of popular platforms including Twitter, Shopee, Tokopedia, Instagram, Facebook, and more.
Scan the QR code, enter the streaming URL, key save, and tap the saved platform icon to start RTMP streaming to up to two platforms simultaneously.
The camera lens features 12MP effective pixels, an f/1.2 aperture, an 80-degree field of view, a minimum focus distance of just 0.5m, and less than 1% edge distortion, which provides excellent image fidelity for high-quality 4K30p streaming.
Hollyland says that this is ‘a big upgrade’ from the VenusLiv V1 and adds some useful features such as pre-designed overlays and graphics to decorate live streams. Another useful feature is immediate background removal, allowing users to switch to virtual scenes for a more immersive audience experience.
It features 6x zoom capabilities, combining 3x optical and 2x digital zoom, and uses phase, contrast, and hybrid autofocus to achieve rapid autofocus in 0.08 seconds.
It also has some handy preset lighting modes, as well as featuring powerful RGB curves and quick adjustment to bring more natural-looking images for human faces, objects, and backgrounds.
The HollyOS provides a smooth user experience with a design of 8-core CPU, HPC GPU, ISP, and DSP processors. The system makes it easy to grasp professional camera skills, such as adjusting exposure compensation, ISO, white balance, aperture, and more. Favourite setting can be grouped together and saved for easy access.
Audio-wise, a built-in sound card supports quick and simple adjustments to high, medium, and low-grade reverberation and other sound effects. Users can add various sound reverberations through system upgrades, which eliminates the need for separate sound cards.
A 5-inch touchscreen can be easily rotated and is calibrated with industrial-grade CalMAN color accuracy software for accurate color reproduction. The touchscreen can be used for backstage real-time monitoring or flipped towards the host to view audience comments and scene conditions. It can be used in both portrait and landscape, a built-in gyro syncing the UI to how it’s being used.
The camera body has a separate USB-C port, allowing users, for instance, to, for instance, connect the Lark series wireless microphone for clear digital audio. It also includes various ports such as 3.5mm, HDMI, SD card, DC input, and more, and is compatible with a wide range of devices.
