A friend of mine posed an interesting question the other day. He ask if it's possible to live stream with a DSLR. I had no clue what the answer was, so like always, I Googled it. I found an interesting answer. http://www.learnwebvideo.net/broadca...ith-your-dslr/

I haven't found much else as far as answers go. I'm wondering if you all would happen to have any answers. I figure it's not something that can be done because of the encoding on the video that's shot. Are there any non-standard (standard meaning: http://www.matthartley.com/wp-conten...For_Ubuntu.jpg) webcams that can be used to shoot with?

I've seen some of the GFQ setup and it looks interesting. Are there many benefits to using that non-standard webcams? Drawbacks?
