Q1: if the ghost touched anything (for example, closing the door right behind you) as the event/Hunt starts, its an Event, could also be a Light Switch. Or you could try to see the ghost yif he's invisible or the Red is Light (Red Light Event), then its also an Event. its always safer to just run tho.
Q2: you need to break line of sight 2 times, run off around corners and hide in a closest or another hiding Spot the map gives you. In street houses you wanna hold the closest Doors shut, if he opens the second one, Release the first one, close the second and hold the first again. Also use smudge sticks and a Lighter, hold the Lighter in your inventory and the smudgies in your hand, if you then press [F], the ghost will run away from you and you can even run through him really quickly.
Q3: strong flashlight, camera (for bone, cursed possesion, extra money from pics and to look for fingerprints) and an emf, walk around until you hear something and then search for it with the emf. Alternatively you could also use a Thermometer and just look which room is below 10°C (if you're not playing amateur you need to turn the braker first on and wait a bit)
10°C is equivalent to 50°F, which is 283K.

^(I'm a bot that converts temperature between two units humans can understand, then convert it to Kelvin for bots and physicists to understand)
Would thermometer be the quickest option for finding the room? As that seems to work best for me, with emf I can never seem to find the room.
And so during a hunt the ghost won’t touch anything at all?
if you play on amateur, then yes Thermo is the fastest, otherwise all rooms start a bit cold and have to heat up first.
i only ment when the hunt/Event starts, while the Hunt is going the ghost will Touch everything in his way, knock off paintings, Open all types of Doors, throws objects
also 2 other additions: if it could be a Deogen (or mimic), you cant hide from him, he will always find you, BUT he will be slow af close to you so you can literally out walk him. the dtrategy is to not gen cornered and loop him around, for example the kitchen in tanglewood. be careful as if he's further away He wil lalso be fast so test with smudge sticks in your hand.
also before you hide, turn off your flashlight with [T] and every other Electronic device in your hand (for camera, you need to throw them away, except its a head mounted camera)
One of the most underrated ways to tell a hunt, is that when a ghost hunts, it picks the noise it makes and it will always make that noise when hunting. So if you get a hunt, and it's, say, giggling during the hunt then later in the same game, the ghost appears and starts chasing in front of you but it's crying, that's an event, not a hunt because you already saw it's a giggling hunter.
Also, I believe female ghosts will never sing Ring A Rosie and male ghosts will never hum during hunts. Those are always events
1. Depending on the map, you can usually hear the front door shut. If it does, it's a hunt. You are also unable to turn on or off light switches during a hunt.
2. Find where your hinding spots are before a hunt and have an escape plan (unless it's a deogen, then just keep running). Make sure all your equipment, including you flashlight, is off. It can hear that and you talking.
3. Depends. I currently like having at least the UV light on me so I can check as soon as I hear it touch something. Before that I usually had a candle stick. You will find your own preference eventually
Currently my preference is video camera, flashlight and thermometer. Then once I’ve found the room I set up camera go back to the van to check for orbs then take all the other equipment needed to identify the ghost.
Thermometer is becoming less useful though as I’ve started playing on intermediate but I can never seem to find the room with just a emf recorder.
Also let’s say I haven’t already figured out what ghost it is and a hunt starts, how could I tell if it’s a deogen since hiding is less effective against them
You will hear the deogen running at you like a cheetah high on caffeine. I was at the complete opposite end of the asylum when I first experienced how fast it was. Thought my friends where just running the ghost towards me until I heard how quickly and directly it was heading at me (turns out they died since friend 1 ran through it forgetting he didn't have a lighter for the smudge and friend 2 followed thinking he smudged it). I booked it out of my room and down the hall. Thankfully I had a smudge stick so I was able to smudge it as I left the room.
First time me and my bestie did the asylum map and we found the room, one of out teammates in the van directed us back, then when we went back I picks specific markers at each turn to keep from going the wrong way. And since my bestie was the one who did the most contribution, I walked behind while leaving and in front while entering.
Loaded questions so I'll add what I can
First, Best way to tell event vs hunt is does a light turn off or door get touched right away? It's a event, there is a grace period before hunts where you just hear gurgling or humming or whatever then you see the ghost. If you see the ghost right away it is an event. Then to go with question 2 is find a hiding spot. Preferably closet or locker. You also want to hear for the front door getting locked on smaller maps, that's how you know it's a hunt.
Third, Best starting items I would recommend for newer players is strong flashlight, emf, and thermometer if you are having problems finding the ghost room, or just replace thermo with camera. Assuming you are playing amateur, breaker is already on and all hiding spots are open so it should be easier to find the ghost room amd hiding spot.
Fourth, Bigger maps para mic can be good for finding the ghost room or bring like a light candle and flashlight because your sanity wont drain while holding a lit candle then maybe you can wait till you hear something. Close all doors so you know when a ghost has opened one. Easier to tell area ghost could be then confirm with thermo
Extra tip: Sanity management is huge early, most ghosts hunt when below 50% with a few hunting 60%+ but if you always keep your sanity up above 50-60% you will be safe longer or narrow down the ghost easier. Hope this helps welcome to phasmo and enjoy!
If you haven't joined the Discord, I highly recommend it. The LFG (Looking For Group) channel is more likely to have players willing to be helpful, as opposed to the public multiplayer lobbies, which can be... hit or miss. (I don't use that myself, but I've heard enough from posters here to know that some players in the public lobbies enjoy trolling more than they enjoy the game. The LFG channel on the Discord is self selecting against that.)

Can’t you just put your camera in a off hand?

That last bit is correct yes \^\^
If you die it was a hunt.
It would be too late by then
That's why you gotta play in a team.
1. Depending on the map, you can usually hear the front door shut. If it does, it's a hunt. You are also unable to turn on or off light switches during a hunt. 2.

Also how to navigate the bigger maps more effectively
Mainly just map knowledge tbh
First time me and my bestie did the asylum map and we found the room, one of out teammates in the van directed us back, then when we went back I picks specific markers at each turn to keep from going the wrong way. And since my bestie was the one who did the most contribution, I walked behind while leaving and in front while entering.

Only time I use a cursed possession straight away is if it’s the mirror, saves a lot of time looking for the correct room
