True 4K at 60 fps, a 20× optical zoom and AI tracking in one robotic camera, built for broadcast, live events and virtual production.

01

Large 4/3" sensor.

A 20 MP CMOS and a new image engine deliver clean, detailed 4K at 60 fps, from bright stages to dim venues.

02

20× optical zoom.

A 9.79–186.5 mm lens goes from a 71° wide shot to tight close-ups, plus 16× digital zoom.

03

Stable images.

Electronic stabilisation as standard, optical OIS as an option, and a precise high-torque pan-tilt head.

04

Every interface at once.

12G-SDI, 3G-SDI, HDMI 2.0, USB 3.0 and IP simultaneously, with genlock, timecode and XLR audio.

05

AI tracking.

ReID and face recognition follow the presenter by body shape, posture and clothing, even in busy scenes.

06

Virtual studio ready.

Free-D output sends pan, tilt, zoom, focus and iris data to AR and virtual set engines.

07

Built-in ND filter.

Three steps (1/4, 1/16, 1/64) selected automatically to keep exposure right in strong light.

08

IP workflows.

NDI|HX3, SRT, RTMP(S), RTSP, Dante AV-H and Onvif. Front and rear tally keep the crew informed.
