- A: AnswerThis is a passthrough device for a laptop or PC, it takes the live view from your camera, and converts it to that your computer can see it, this allows you to use nicer cameras as a web cam. While there are cameras that have outputs that can be plugged into your computer, this is not for those, but more for dslrs.

- A: AnswerThe answer is both "yes" and "no" here. The Elgato Cam Link 4K will work with any unencrypted HDMI signal, according to their website. This means as long as the signal isn't encrypted with HDCP, it should be able to capture it as a source. If it is, then you're not going to be able to use this. Good luck! https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360027959052-Cam-Link-4K-works-with-unencrypted-HDMI-sources

- A: AnswerIt will Capture the audio from the device that is connected to it. Work if you connect a slr via HDMI to the elgato cam link, and then plug that into your computer, by choosing the sound from the cam link in whatever software you're running, you get the auido from the cameras mic/external mic if one is plugged into it. Hope this helps!

Q: QuestionCan this capture Nintendo Switch footage?(2 answers)
A: AnswerYou can plug the switch hdmi cable in directly and use your streaming software to see the game, but that may cause input delay. I like to use an hdmi splitter which let's me play on my tv and capture the game at the same time with no input delay.Answered by Carlos

My Elgato Link Experience
I love it, it pairs good with the camera that I have (Sony a6400) and my MacBook Pro 16in! Definitely a quality boost in my live recordings.
