Features

Auto-Tracking with Extended Options: The camera automatically follows a person in motion. The extended options include selecting where the camera will pick up the target and the ability to choose from multiple targets on the fly.

Auto-framing: Lets the camera automatically adjust the frame size according to subjects within its field of view.

Video Templates: Select the best performance IP video streams for your project with easily selectable video templates for NDI and IP streaming.

White Balance Modes: Adjusts the color balance in your images, specifically focusing on the color white. Different lighting conditions can change the color of white, which may alter other colors in the image. White balance modes can help correct for various types of lighting, such as sunlight, shade, tungsten, and fluorescent, so that the white in your image remains true and other colors are displayed accurately.

Exposure Modes: The camera offers several exposure modes to help you determine the correct combination of aperture, shutter speed, and gain to achieve the perfect exposure. Different modes include manual (where you control everything), auto (the camera decides), SAE (where you control the shutter speed and the camera handles the rest), AAE (where you control the aperture and the camera handles the rest), Bright where you set a target brightness level and the camera adjusts all settings to achieve that brightness, and One Push lets the camera automatically adjusts exposure settings based on a single button press. The user can adjust Gain. To perform a one push exposure adjustment, click the icon next to the exposure mode dropdown with OnePush selected.

On-Camera Firmware Updates: You can update the camera’s firmware directly from the camera itself. Firmware is the low-level software that controls the camera's hardware. Being able to update it directly on the camera simplifies the process and ensures you can easily have the latest features and bug fixes.

Profiles: Adapt to different shooting situations quickly using your own custom profiles. For example, you might have one profile for indoor shooting, another for outdoor shooting, and another for low-light conditions. A profile can save settings such as white balance, exposure, and frame rate, among others.

Simple Network Discovery: Trouble-free discovery of any connected PTZOptics camera on your network. PTZOptics cameras can be found by entering http://ptzoptics.local into any web browser. You can then change your camera’s IP address or set a custom camera ID. For example, you could set your camera’s ID to “mycamera.local”. Enter that into a web browser and you’re there.

NTP for NDI sync: Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a networking protocol for clock synchronization between computer systems over packet-switched, variable-latency data networks. This can be used to ensure that the timestamps on the Network Device Interface (NDI) streams from your cameras are accurate and synchronized, ensuring that your video streams are in sync with each other and with any other networked devices.

Multicast/Unicast: Data transmission over a network. In multicast, data is sent simultaneously to multiple recipients. In unicast, data is sent from a single sender to a single receiver. Depending on your network setup and the requirements of your video stream. Choose what works for you.

12X, 20X, 30X Optical Zoom Models: High resolution 1080p telephoto models in 12X, 20X, or 30X opticalzoom 1080p HD: Next-generation SONY UHD CMOS sensor for shooting high-quality video at 60 FPS, with the flexibility to adjust numerous other resolutions and frame rates.

HDMI 1.3: HDMI 1.3 can directly output 1080p uncompressed digital video.

Low Light: An ultra-high SNR (Signal-to-Noise Ratio) can reduce image noise in low-light conditions. Meaning you see what matters, and your image isn’t polluted with digital noise.

2D & 3D Noise Reduction: Produces a clean, clear image, even in low light, with a signal-to-noise ratio as high as 55 dB.

Built-in Gravity Sensor: Built-in automatic image flip function, convenient for installation.

Multiple Interfaces: Supports Simultaneous USB 3.0, HDMI 1.3 / 3G-SDI / IP streaming (SRT, RTSP, RTMP) (HDMI & SDI are not simultaneous)

Multiple Control Options: Controllable via IR remote, network connection, RS-232, RS-485, and the USB port.
