Camera for directly streaming to the internet

[Manic157!]

I am looking for a camera that I can connect to an ethernet cable and broadcast directly to youtube. Does any camera offer that function or will I need a device in between?

Not sure about directly, but you use put a raspberry pi and stream to youtube using that. If you find a camera that can stream a format supported by youtube the raspberry pi won't even need to transcode. Choose live encoder settings, bitrates, and resolutions - YouTube Help

I know Sunba is poo-pooed here for quality and support, but in looking at their latest offering, they do advertise a direct-to-youtube implementation right out of the box.

Thanks for the info I talked to Dahua support and Dahua North America does not offer RTMP support. Camera's from Axis can do it but they need a firmware upgrade from a 3rd party company that costs $300 to $500. Connect a Network Camera to YouTube or other RTMP streaming platforms | CamStreamer I will look at Sunba.
