Camcorder for use as a webcam I've been looking into a camcorder for use as a webcam, since all the webcams I have found don't seem to be up to the task I have in mind.

My biggest issue is finding camcorders can can even be used as a webcam, either natively or through a 3rd party software such as DVDriver. DVDriver requires that the camera have an IEEE 1394 port, but it seems that this is not a common thing on camcorders now like it was years ago.

Capability to record in 1080p and a wide angle lens would also be useful.

Does anyone know of any camcorders that are capable of this, or a resource where I can find more information on camcorders?  My searches of the Sony, Canon and other manufactures websites has turned up very little in the way of useful information.
I know one solution, but it's not cheap as webcams. Same time full hd quality is something that webcams usually doesn't deliver.
Device especially interesting for live shows recording and streaming.

Webcam driver is provider by Zoom, so you still can use it as regular webcam delivering high quality video and audio to Skype for instance.

PS: there are plenty of reviews on youtube.
