BU-47H
Outdoor Remote Control Pan-Tilt System
As the worldwide transition to HD (high definition) imaging continues to
accelerate, many video content creators including broadcasters, cable
networks and business/industrial entities are seeking cost-effective, turnkey,
remotely-controllable Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) HD camera systems to extend
creative flexibilities. To meet these diverse needs, Canon has harnessed
multiple unique technologies and experience in HD optics and digital cameras, robotics, and control software,
to produce a cost-effective, integrated HD lens-camera PTZ product offering exceptional HD picture quality.
The BU-47H is a rugged yet elegant outdoor PTZ system-following a legacy of decades of Canon expertise in
designing such systems. A sister product, the BU-51H, has a design tailored for exacting indoor applications.

BU-47H Features
HIGH QUALITY HDTV/SDTV VIDEO IMAGES
The BU-47H have a 1/3 inch 3CMOS camera with 2,370,000 pixels per CMOS. It offers exceptional video quality for
broadcasting, event coverage and high quality surveillance, among others.
HIGH OPTICAL PERFORMANCE AND IMAGE STABILIZATION
The 3 CMOS HD camera combines a 18X Optical Zoom HD lens (4.1-73.8mm, 6.2-111mm with 1.5X Digital Extender) with Auto
Focus and Image Stabilization, providing exceptional HD video images with enhanced operational flexibilities.
WEATHERPROOF
The BU-47H is an extremely sturdy, dustproof/waterproof pan-tilt system with an IP45 enclosure rating. Well suited for outdoor
operation, the BU-47H also incorporates a built-in wiper.
WIDE PAN-TILT COVERAGE
The BU-47H can pan through ±340° and tilt +30°~-50° in highly precise and smoothly
choreographed movements specifically designed to address multiple applications.
NON-PROPRIETARY PROTOCOL
As the control protocol is non-proprietary and open to the public, a user or system integrator can
provide their own control system or contract with a third party provider.
VARIETY OF OUTPUTS
The camera outputs an uncompressed HD-SDI (or SD-SDI) signal. The HD-SDI signal and an SD
Composite signal (NTSC or PAL)* can be output simultaneously. The SD signal can be used for
monitoring. In addition, the BU-47H features GENLOCK for video synchronization.
* Please request NTSC or PAL format at time of purchase
SLEEK DESIGN
The elegant design makes the BU-47H blend in very naturally with buildings and other city landscapes.

and Image Stabilization, providing exceptional HD video images with enhanced operational flexibilities.
EXTREMELY QUIET
The BU-51H is an extremely quiet Pan-Tilt system featuring a maximum noise level of NC30. Thus it is well suited for operation
in a very quiet environment such as a conference, lecture, or a classical concert.
BUILT-IN MICROPHONE
The BU-51H has a convenient, built-in microphone with adjustable settings.
POSITIONAL INFORMATION
The BU-51H provides PAN/TILT/ZOOM/FOCUS position information.
NIGHT MODE
The BU-51H now include “night mode”. The shutter speed is slowed down to a minimum of 1/4(60i,30F)
or 1/3(50i,25F,24F) allowing frame accumulation that elevates camera sensitivity.
NON-PROPRIETARY PROTOCOL
As the control protocol is non-proprietary and open to the public, a user or system integrator can provide
their own control system or contract with a third party provider.
VARIETY OF OUTPUTS
The camera outputs an uncompressed HD-SDI (or SD-SDI) signal. The HD-SDI signal and an SD
