1. Product Overview
The PTC-150/PTC-150W HD/SD Video Camera is a PTZ camera that can be
mounted on a wall, ceiling, floor, or a tabletop, and includes an IR remote
control. The camera captures HD video at 1920 x 1080 resolution, and
features wide dynamic range with backlight compensation. The camera
features a motorized 30x optical zoom capability. The camera's image mirror
and image rotation functions allow you to electronically adjust the image and
deliver a correctly oriented image.
50 programmable presets including pan, tilt, and zoom positions, allow the
camera to quickly move between predetermined camera positions using the
remote.
For multi-camera shoots, the built-in tally light can identify when the camera
is active. The camera features a built-in IR cut filter in the image path for low
light shooting, and then returns for daytime shooting. Moreover, PTC150/PTC-150W supports real time position report on a per frame basis; this
will be helpful to virtual studio application. The camera supports Sony VISCA
protocol for PTZ control using RS-422 interface over the unit's RJ-45 port.
