Advanced 4K PTZ Camera and Perfect for Large Venues
The Datavideo PTC-325 is equipped with a 1/2.8-inch CMOS sensor and a 30x optical zoom lens, offering 4K 50/60p output via HDMI with YUV 4:2:2 color sampling. This setup delivers sharp, detailed images with accurate color reproduction, even in larger venues. The camera's built-in Auto Tracking feature automatically locks onto and smoothly follows the subject, making it perfect for hands-free operation.
The PTC-325 also supports NDI for low-latency video transmission over networks, making it an excellent choice for live streaming and remote production. It offers dual power options, including DC input and PoE, and features robust encoding capabilities for exceptional performance and versatility.
Designed with the A/V market in mind, the PTC-325 series supports dual streaming output, enabling easy streaming to platforms like Facebook (RTMPS), YouTube, and dvCloud. Its compliance with the ONVIF Profile S standard ensures compatibility and interoperability across diverse network video environments.
Simultaneous Outputs
Connect your PTC-325 to multiple devices in your workflow for flexibility. All the outputs are active at the same time.
Broadcast Quality 4K Resolution
With built-in 1/2.8" CMOS sensor, supports resolution up to 2160p 50/60.
Superior Optical Performance
The PTC-325 camera has 30x Optical Zoom and 16x Digital Zoom with the f1.8 wide open aperture.
Custom Auto Object Tracking
If you are filming multiple people, you can designate a person for auto-tracking. Once linked to the camera, only the designated person will be tracked, avoiding interferences such as desks, people coming back and forth, large objects, etc.
Smart PTZ Speed Adaptation
The integrated PID algorithm is able to detect the movement speed of the identified object and automatically adjust the camera's corresponding pan, tilt and zoom speeds in such a way that the lens movement will be smooth, avoiding common camera lens movement problems like jerky movements or unpredicted halts.
Talent Position: Center / Left Side / Right Side
The positioning of talent depends on the videographer's creativity and intent rather than strict rules. Different positions can convey various emotions, messages, or visual effects. A centered composition provides a sense of stability and balance, suitable for scenes that require highlighting the main subject. Videographers may also place the talent on the left third or right third of the frame, leaving adequate space in the foreground to showcase the talent's sight direction or potential future possibilities.
Quick Selection of Full Body / Half Body / Close-up
All of the PTC-325 camera series include RMC-1AT controller. User can quickly select full-body, half-body and close up framing, making it easy to change the shooting scene and framing requirements.
