It's been mentioned in this thread already but the Canon EOS webcam software is kind of cool and it allows you to use fairly high end SLR cameras as a web cam. I bought a battery adapter and tried it with a Canon 5DmIV not too long ago and it worked pretty well.

If I were doing some serious webcamming I'd probably go with something smaller and less expensive, there are whole youtube series on what best cameras to use when streaming or recording. I forget which one seemed to lead the pack. A panasonic maybe?
