4K 60p/50p*1 Output, High-Magnification Zoom and Wide-Angle Shooting for Flexible Video Production
This next-generation PTZ camera supports high-quality video production in stadium, lecture halls, churches and other venues. Smooth and high-quality 4K 60p/50p*1, high-magnification zoom and a wide shooting angle expand the range of the PTZ cameras applications. The camera is equipped with a variety of interfaces and supports simultaneous 4K/HD operation which allows for versatility in current and future production systems.
1.0-type MOS Sensor
The large 1.0-type MOS sensor enables high sensitivity shooting with low noise. The sensor boasts a light-capturing area that is approximately four times larger than that of the 1/2.3-type sensor to guarantee a wide dynamic range.
Optical 20x Zoom / Industry’s First* 75.1° Horizontal Wide-Angle Shooting
Adding “i zoom” to panasonics optical 20x zoom, maintains high resolution while enabling ultra-high resolution 32x zoom in HD mode and 24x zoom in 4K mode. This enables distant subjects to be captured clearly. Furthermore, 75.1° horizontal wide-angle shooting enables capture of the entire area, even when installation space is limited.
HDR (HLG) Support
The camera supports HDR (High Dynamic Range) to prevent blown-out highlights and blocked-up shadows and enable picture quality close to that of the naked eye.
Optical Image Stabilizer (OIS) Loaded
Vibrations of the mounted surface caused by doors opening and closing, audio systems and other installed equipment are automatically corrected to ensure stable shooting.
Night Mode Support
Equipped with Night Mode for infrared shooting. The use of IR rays in low-light situations enables shooting in situations that would normally be difficult, such as when capturing wildlife (image output is black and white).
Incredible Pan and Tilt Performance
Pan and tilt operate from a minimum speed of 0.08°/s to a maximum of 180°/s in high-speed mode. This is approximately 3 times the speed of panasonics current product*5 for rapid capture of the intended target. Furthermore, a low noise level of NC35 or less has been ensured when operating in normal mode, which is perfect for shooting in quiet environments*6.
Cropping Function
Images shot in 4K can be output in their entirety while simultaneously cropping parts of those images. The cropping position can be specified from a maximum of 3 locations to enable simple operation from the Remote Camera Controller AW-RP150GJ, a web browser or other operations screen.
Multiple Interfaces Supported
A wide range of outputs are supported: 12G-SDI, 3G-SDI, HDMI, IP and even Optical Fiber output. The addition of 4K/HD simultaneous output guarantees the right output for the operation at hand. 4K video can be down converted to HD directly within the camera.
WEB UI Improved
Camera IP image output, settings and control can be performed using a web browser on a computer connected via an IP network. In addition to PCs and Macs, iPads, iPhones*1, Androids and other mobile devices can be used for operation, and this pursuit of easy-to-use interfaces has enabled smooth camera control from remote locations.
AW-RP150GJ Connection for Large-Scale Production Systems
IP connection from the Remote Camera Controller AW-RP150GJ through a HUB (switching hub) enables control of up to 200 AW-UE150W/K units. Furthermore, a single AW-UE150W/K unit can be controlled from up to 5 AW-RP150GJ units.
JPEG Image Saving Function Equipped
Up to 100 still images can be captured and saved as JPEG files to the built-in camera memory.
NDI | HX Compatibility for Excellent Video Streaming Quality
The AW-UE150W/K can be upgraded to an NDI | HX compatible model if purchasing a license. Highly efficient NDI | HX compatibility enables high-quality video to be encoded and transmitted in real-time and input signals to be directly sent to a switcher (AV-HLC100) without the need for an IP decoder.
Direct Broadcast via RTMP (Real-Time Messaging Protocol)
RTMP (Real-Time Messaging Protocol) is supported to enable direct upload of video to live-streaming services such as YouTube Live and Facebook Live. This means a live stream can be broadcast directly from the camera.
