I'll echo Roland's suggestion.. we use QTSS + Wirecast with great
success. I believe our kit includes a reasonably priced JVC camera
that does pretty well for the price. We use a simple mixing board with
a few mics for presentations / conferences. We even pump the video out
with a multicast option for folks who have access. Seems to work
pretty well with a relatively low entry cost.
