Creating a compelling corporate podcast is about more than just great sound—it's also about how you look. Whether you're recording interviews, executive updates, or thought leadership sessions, adding high-quality video helps boost engagement and multiplies the ways your content can be used. But which camera is right for your setup?
At Hypecast University, we’ve tested the top video cameras compatible with Hypecast’s browser-based recording studio—designed to work seamlessly across desktop, mobile, and tablet. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the best camera options for different levels and use cases, from beginner to expert, solo creators to corporate teams.
Video adds dimension, personality, and shareability to your corporate podcast. In a world of LinkedIn clips, internal comms, and brand storytelling, video turns a one-time audio conversation into a visual asset that works across platforms.
Whether you're publishing full-length interviews on YouTube, cutting clips for social media, or using recorded meetings as team content, video creates more visibility and value. And with Hypecast’s browser-based solution, you don’t need expensive streaming setups—just the right camera.
