And… don’t want to spend a fortune?

Firstly, please understand that I am not tech-head, AV guy or expert in any of this!

I had a crack at setting-up studio to broadcast globally from the home office, starting with a basic set-up, and then iterated. Here is exactly what I bought and where I got it, with a couple of exceptions. For example, grab the Panasonic Lumix SLR Camera from Amazon, rather than the dodgy grey importer, who I would learn, got it from Hong Kong which took several weeks!

Ok, think… Quality Audio, Camera, Lighting.

Little things are the difference between looking/sounding professional/credible verses ‘backyard’. For example, check the first 5 seconds of this lighting video which talks about 3-point lighting.

I suggest shopping this stuff at JB HiFi if you need to go in person, or if you can wait a few days Amazon Prime rocks. You might also check eBay to compare prices. And a couple of little parts might require specialist stores, also online.

Budget
