CAMERAS for Self-Tape Auditions
A good camera should allow you to adjust exposure levels and zoom in and out for full, mid, and close-up shots as needed for your auditions. It should also have good resolution, allow for an external microphone (lavalier), have an autofocus option, and connect to your laptop for easy file transfer and monitoring. The cameras in this collection meet these requirements. Don't forget to get an additional AC power adapter so you don't have to recharge batteries.
Canon EOS M50 Mark II
This is the camera I use in my studio. It also doubles as my webcam for super crisp Zoom callbacks.

Sony ZV-1 Digital Camera
One of my peers suggested this camera. It meets specs, and it looks more like a point and shoot camera, which may be easier to dial in. Looking forward to testing.
