Camera for recording CRT image.
Hi
Can anyone recommend me a decent camera for recording a CRT image ? I'm looking for something I can buy 2nd hand and at decent price for my youtube videos.
I keep having to record my game play on my phone but the image sucks bad.
Thanks

Re: Camera for recording CRT image.
To get a decent image you need a camera or phone (+app) that lets you dial in the shutter speed to match the monitor's sync. This video and its comments have some decent tips.
We here shall not rest until we have made a drawing-room of your shaft, and if you do not all finally go down to your doom in patent-leather shoes, then you shall not go at all.

Are you sure? You can control the shutter speed on both iOS and Android, though you may need a third-party app on some phones to do so.

Re: Camera for recording CRT image.
Is there a reason you want a camera instead of a capture device?

Re: Camera for recording CRT image.
you'll probably need a very expensive camera, like phonedork's:

Re: Camera for recording CRT image.
Any camera that lets you dial in the shutter speed while recording video should let you do this. I think Sony, Panasonic, and Canon have all had consumer or prosumer models with this feature. For Sony the terms 'Clear Scan' and 'ECS' seem to be how they describe the feature. For Canon EOS cameras you can use a firmware addon called Magic Lantern (https://magiclantern.fm/) to do it. Sorry I can't provide more info on specific models and stuff, don't really keep up with cameras these days, but I think it's possible without spending a ton of money.

Re: Camera for recording CRT image.
I will say though that theoretically this should be possible on just about any phone that has a decent camera. There's no mechanical shutter, so shutter speed is just a function of how long the software tells the sensor to sample light for each frame. The requirements are basically that the sensor and lens are sensitive enough (ISO+aperture) to sample the required light in the required time and that the OS's API allows apps to tinker with the electronic shutter speed. I think it's very likely that your phone's camera can do this, it's just a matter of the software working or not. The YT link I provided had some threads that mentioned some super specific apps—have you tried those?
