DataVideo PTC-305 8.51 MP Black 3840 x 2160 pixels CMOS 25.4 / 1.8 mm (1 / 1.8")

PTC-305 4K PTZ Camera with Auto Tracking
The Datavideo 4K Auto Tracking PTZ Camera PTC-305, is a high-performance tool for live production settings. This camera operates at 4K 50/60p with advanced auto-tracking capabilities. It can be controlled using a traditional RS-422 serial port, or through IP remote control via DVIP (Datavideo's proprietary protocol) or Sony VISCA over IP.

Notably, the PTC- 305 series supports dual streaming output, making it ideal for A/V market applications, and facilitates easy streaming to platforms like Facebook (RTMPS), YouTube, and dvCloud.

Additionally, the PTC-305 models are compliant with the ONVIF Profile S standard, ensuring compatibility and interoperability in various network video environments.

For diverse workflow needs, Datavideo offers extended models like the PTC-305T 4K HDBaseT and PTC-305NDI.

Simultaneous Outputs
Connect your PTC-305 to multiple devices in your workflow for flexibility. All the outputs are active at the same time.

Quick Access to Camera's Auto Tracking
You will be granted direct access to Auto Tracking via various external controllers such as the supplied RMC-1AT PTZ remote controller and RMC-300A DVIP controller, PTC View Assist App, and the TPC-700, etc. You can choose a suitable controller according to your needs.

In addition to camera controllers, you can also easily enable Auto Tracking on switchers, including iCAST mini, KMU-200/300, SHOWCAST 100, etc.

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 the 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-305 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.
