Someone has to do lots of work to tape the talks, get proper
permissions from the presenters, and then host the videos. Often this
would land on the shoulders of the conference organizers, who are
already working hard just to pull off the live show.
Not that much - I've recorded local JUG monthly meetings for more than a
year. With a decent DV cam and a microphone, it's quite easy. After all,
it's just a pearson standing and talking, not a LOTR ...
Yep ... and something many people don't realize is that they don't even
need a dedicated DV cam anymore. Many "still" digital cameras make
excellent video cameras now.
My Canon PowerShot SX20IS compact camera takes great 720p video and
supports a sound patch if desired, though the directional mike on the
camera is surprisingly good. I can zoom seriously deep and still get a
good result thanks to the high-range lens, too. My work's Canon EOS 50D
does even more impressive video - and the 5D Mark II the photographer
uses is incredible.
Many people have low-end SLR or high-end fixed cameras that're really
good video cameras, they just don't know it. Many of them will have
tripods, and a basic tripod for fixed indoor use is cheap anyway.
Given that, I wouldn't think that gear is much of an obstacle.
