video equipment for churches
Video equipment in a church has become a technological necessity.
A video camera and recorder can be used in combination to record sermons, choir concerts, and special messages given by guest speakers. Congregations may want to consider using this type of equipment to record worship services so that they can be downloaded onto websites or aired on local television channels. If members miss a Sunday, recordings will allow them to watch the worship service on video at a later date.
A video camera combined with a video distribution system, gives you the opportunity to feed sound and picture into other areas of the building. This is particularly useful for overflow areas when the main church hall is full. Within the main church hall, video can be distributed to monitors mounted throughout the hall so that everyone has an excellent view of the worship service, regardless of where they are sitting.
Go Electronic carries a selection of video cameras for use in worship facilities. The most basic camera used in a house of worship is a fixed camera aimed at the pulpit, or other area of interest (the camera is wired to a monitor or a digital video recorder). The next step up from the fixed camera is a remote controlled pan/tilt/zoom camera. This allows an operator to move, zoom and focus the camera from a remote location (the ptz camera must be wired to a monitor in the remote location so the operator can see what he or she is doing). For a more ellaborate set up, multiple pan-tilt-zoom cameras can be mounted in the main hall and fed into a video mixer or into individual monitors.
