SONY SRG-X400 IP 4K PTZ Camera with 40x zoom and NDI®|HX capability

Overview

Capture every point of view with excellent 4K* picture quality and efficient IP production workflow

The versatile SRG-X400 remotely controlled PTZ camera is ideal for a wide range of applications - from classrooms and meeting spaces to houses of worship, lecture halls and medical environments.

The camera's 1/2.5-type Exmor R™ sensor captures up to 4K* resolution images with excellent sensitivity, very low noise and rich, natural colour reproduction. It's complemented by the integrated high-resolution lens that offers zoom capability up to 40x in Full HD*** (30x in 4K), with an expansive approx. 70° wide angle coverage to capture every point of view.

High speed movement during preset recall captures the speaker's every movement, while Picture Freeze during transitions ensures your audience isn't disturbed by rapid camera movements. PTZ Motion Sync*** function allows smooth blending of separate pan, tilt and zoom movements for seamless, professional-looking transition.

Efficient IP-based live production is augmented with support for NDI®|HX (via optional license), allowing flexible configuration with other networked NDI®-enabled devices.

Images also can be reviewing remotely via a web browser, with support for RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol) ensuring smooth, stable streaming of video plus audio (from an optional microphone, available separately) over an IP network.

Installation and set-up is easy, with a new Picture Setting File*** allowing the same settings to be applied to multiple cameras through a web interface from a laptop or PC.
