We use this for streaming our church services and it works great for the technology that we have and the speed of internet that we have

The camera has good quality and the process of getting it up and running is smooth and simple if you are comfortable with technology. I would definitely buy the camera again.
If you buy this camera, joining the Facebook Mevo user group is essential. I feel like the group exists to try to offload some of Mevo’s customer support to a community of users. To me, it feels like a cheap move, but it works out okay for the customers. However, especially because of the pandemic, the group is EXTREMELY active, probably making up 1/4 of my news feed. And users often ask the same questions repeatedly.
The biggest issue is that they need to quadruple their QA group. Right after I got my camera, an update killed the ability for Android users to use YouTube. And while it’s never happened to me, users have mentioned that after running an update on the camera’s firmware, they experience issues. So I would highly recommend never running a firmware update unless you have a few days before you are using the camera.
Their site also lacks some vital information. They list USB-C adapters that “are supported” by the camera, but they don’t really define what that means. I found out from the Facebook page that it means “they’ve been tested and will charge/do everything it’s supposed to when using their quick charger,” which is a small separate purchase. And that is a BIG issue. You can’t use a standard 5w charger when using a USB-C adapter for power and ethernet. You have to get their 18w charger or something as or more powerful. This is all information their site should include, but it doesn’t. It wasn’t until looking at the adapter on Amazon and seeing that it said the adapter could need up to 12w to power the adapter that I figured out what was happening.

Camera video estremamente efficace per chi deve lavorare da solo. Grazie al pannello regia è possibile, già con una sola mevo start, realizzare e gestire diverse inquadrature con zoom in e zoom out

Our Church is looking to stream Christmas Services. The issue was, how and within budget. The Mevo delivers exactly what we need: a) simple to set up b) simple to operate c) simple to stream d) simple to live edit e) acceptable broadcast quality.
The online tutorials are helpful and it took about an hour of trial and error to get the Mevo up and running.
The sound quality generated when the camera is placed two or three metres from a presenter is really good. A Soft spoken reader five metres away could be heard – just
The Mevo camera is expensive but well made. Importantly it exactly meets its function. Highly recommended

I have two and they are great for quick set up and reasonably close videoing. App a big plus. On board mics are good in quiet environments. Good cameras when working alone and you don’t want to fool with a lot of bells and whistles.

Update: the video quality is so much better than the original Mevo. Some helpful hints if you have a large auditorium and you want to zoom in this is not the camera for you. We stream to FB and YouTube live. We only have 22 YouTube subscribers for our channel. So in order to go live on multiple platforms you need another software to do that. We use Vimeo. To go live on YouTube you must use the RTMP button on Mevo. Set up your stream on YouTube Studio and get your URL and streaming key to paste into Mevo. Great thing is the Mevo will save it and YouTube doesn’t change it for a new stream when you reuse your settings. Once everything is programmed into the Mevo it gets much easier to go live. Again the video quality with the Mevo Start is so much better than the Mevo Plus. We spent about $800 for the original and this was only $399. You get your monies worth if you can leverage all its features. Also if you are being asked for constant firmware updates which Mevo are you using and is your app updated.
Our church has been using the first generation Mevo for over three years. We didn’t realize how outdated our Mevo camera was. The video streaming began to get worse and we kept losing signal and the audio was terrible. I went looking for another camera but Mevo still came up in the top. I looked at the specs of the Mevo Start and realized how outdated our original Mevo was. Today we streamed our service for the first time using Mevo Start and people complemented our video on how clear it was. We had no audio issues or dropped internet. We also didn’t have to plug it in since we stream for about 2 hours. We always liked Mevo and they have made streaming affordable for our church. This Mevo Start addressed most of our issues with the first Mevo we had. Also the price has gone down from what we paid for the original Mevo. It is worth the price. It does so much more than just record video. I love the app also.

The Mevo Start is a great camera for live streaming or for recording. It is good for those getting started in streaming. It is reasonably priced and has a lot of great features. You can live stream to most any service. The camera can be connected via Wi-Fi or with Ethernet (requires a separate adapter). Wi-Fi works well if you have good access points and signals. Streaming quality will depend on your upload speeds. Recording are saved directly to the camera but you will need get a micro-SD card as it does not come with one, but those are so affordable. You will need an Android or iOS tablet or phone to work with the camera. There is an app that controls and configures the camera.
There is a built in microphone that works well. You can also alternatively connect an external sound source to the Aux 3.5 mm jack. It is configurable for Mic level input or Line level input (like sound board). There are level controls for audio within the app. It fits on most any tripod (standard 1/4 screw). I found battery life to be 4-5 hours which should be good in most cases. There is a USB-C connector on the camera that can be used for external power or ethernet adapter. Indicator LED on the front of the camera tells you the connection status and I believe can also act as a Tally light.
One of the nice features is digital zoom. You can view what the camera sees from within the app. The app also lets you zoom the camera view in and out. You can also move a zoomed box around with the full field of the camera, so it almost like having PTZ. The video feed is quite good and there are settings for things like low lighting and outdoor.
Camera looks and feels well built. There is no lens cover so you might want to get a case for it.
The camera can also be configured as an NDI source and it works great with OBS, zoom and all.
Good starter and can still be used in more advanced setups (like OBS). Keep in mind that the app can only be used with one camera at a time (you can move back and forth between cameras). A multi-cam app is being developed and is currently in Beta at this time.

Très bon produit, petit, élégant. Apres quelques jours d’utilisation je ne regrette pas mon achat. Belle qualité d’image et de son. L’application iphone fonctionne très bien meme si elle mériterait d’être en français. La fonction zoom sur l’image fonctionne vraiment très bien. Je me sers de plusieurs MEVO START avec le logiciel pour mac MIMO live ca fonctionne vraiment parfaitement. Latence assez faible. LA possibilité de brancher un micro en jack 3,5mm sur la camera elle même est très pratique pour du multicam ca evite d’avoir a gérer aussi le mixage son, car le son est transporté par la camera.
