I'm hoping the increasing visibility of the climate crisis will make it socially acceptable to push even more business travel to videoconferencing. I think it will take a significant stigma before putting someone on a plane to show a partner how important they are will go away.

I had not considered using my Sony A9 as a webcam. Amazing. Do you use external capture HW or does it support it directly via USB? FWIW we just tried two 90 minute VCs cross coast and facetime gave us better audio than I usually get with zoom.

I'm using a Camlink Elgato 4k to convert from HDMI to USB (not in 4k, that's just the name of the device). I think you wouldn't want this for high quality video production, but it's cheaper than high-end video capture devices (it's $100) and very easy to use (just plug it in).

(you can see a difference in hangouts because DoF is much shallower, but the quality of the in-focus regions isn't much different IMO). I imagine something similar is true of microphones although I haven't tested high end mics, without testing I'd bet this is true of speakers.

Hangouts is so incredibly bad. An entire generation of engineering went into "it must always work on the lowest of low-end" at the expense of quality.
