Whether you stream on Twitch or YouTube (or even Facebook?) you've probably considered leveling up your streaming setup to use a DSLR camera as your webcam. In order to make that happen, you've got to invest in a video capture card. The Elgato Cam Link 4K is one of the most popular options out there, but at $130 you may be looking for cheap capture card alternatives. I grabbed a cheap capture card that a lot of content creators are raving about and put it up next to the Cam Link 4K to see how it stacks up.
