Cameras & Optics

Remotely capture broadcast quality Full HD images with smooth, silent PTZ and excellent low-light sensitivity.
The BRC-H800 remote camera combines uncompromising broadcast picture quality and smooth, silent PTZ operation with the flexibility of 3G-SDI and HDMI connections.

Designed for unattended operation, this compact but powerful robotic camera is an ideal complement to other broadcast cameras for capturing images in hard-to-reach or unobtrusive positions. It's equally at home in TV newsrooms, remote studios and on-air suites, auditoriums, houses of worship, courtrooms, classrooms or sports stadiums. It's also particularly suited to efficient multi-camera set-ups, under the control of a single operator.

The 1.0-type Exmor R CMOS image sensor captures crisp, low-noise Full HD images at 60p, with excellent low-light sensitivity. The large image sensor also allows the creation of beautiful 'bokeh' effects with a shallow depth of field to suit any artistic intention.

Speedy, near-silent PTZ operation with 12x optical zoom accommodates wide-angle scenes and tightly framed close-ups, with Clear Image Zoom 24x(HD) extending this range even further without visible loss of resolution. In Tele Convert Mode, 24x zoom can be further doubled to 48x without losing HD resolution.

Broadcast-friendly features include dual tally lamps for on-air operation, while operational flexibility is enhanced with options for ceiling, table top or tripod mounting. There's also a broad range of video interfacing and remote control possibilities - plus support for PoE+ and genlock - for smooth integration into any broadcast, professional or corporate AV environment.

The BRC-H800/1 and the BRC-H800/WPW are the US/Canada models which are bundled with the AC-UES1230MT AC power supply and cord. In all other regions the AC power supply and cord are sold separately.

Features

Enhanced Pan/Tilt/Zoom (PTZ) operation

Accurately re-frame shots or track moving subjects with smooth, speedy, near-silent remote control of pan, tilt and zoom functions. There's also low-speed zoom and a slow pan/tilt mode for precise, judder-free camera movements. PTZ Trace Memory allows a sequence of camera movements to be memorised and followed whenever required. PTZ Motion Sync smoothly blends separate pan, tilt and zoom movements for seamless, professional-looking transitions. Upto 100 preset positions for pan/tilt/zoom operations.

High quality 12x optical zoom and 24x(HD) with Clear Image Zoom

The high quality Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T lens with 12x optical zoom range covers wide angle shots as well as tight close-ups. Clear Image Zoom* expands this range to 24x (HD) without sacrificing detail. In addition, the Tele Convert Mode can double this range again, up to 48x zoom while maintaining a 1920x1080 resolution.

Clear Image Zoom is a Sony original intelligent interpolation, which analyzes the input image and increases the resolution of the image.

Remote operation

Pan/tilt/zoom and other camera settings can be controlled using the supplied IR remote commander, or with the optional RM-IP500 Remote Control Unit that can control multiple cameras.

Genlock

Genlock simplifies integration with other systems in multi-camera broadcast environments.

Front and rear tally lamps

Ideal for on-air broadcast use, the BRC-H800 features dual tally lamps on the front and rear of the camera body. Brightness of the front tally lamp can be adjusted in two steps.

Easily shoot and stream high-quality 4K 60p video with this space-saving point-of-view remote camera that covers the whole room with its wide field of view.

The SRG-XP1 POV (point of view) camera offers an accessible entry point into the world of 4K video production. It's ideal for 'unattended' video streaming in environments including e-sports venues and reality TV shows, classrooms, meeting space and hospital operating rooms where it can also serve as a high-quality secondary camera.

Compact dimensions and simple installation make the SRG-XP1 ideal for multi-camera setups with no need for dedicated camera operators. It can be used on walls, ceilings, tripods and shelves, as well as space-limited locations where it's costly or impractical to install large numbers of full-size cameras.

The wide angle lens covers a generous over-102° (with distortion correction: 85°) field of view (horizontal), allowing the camera to see an entire subject, even from very close range. It can also capture the entire audience in a classroom or auditorium-even from tricky positions where it's hard to install an ordinary room camera.

Streaming video, power and camera control signals are all carried over a standard Ethernet cable, reducing installation costs and simplifying integration in today's IP networked production environments.

Rear panel guards assure extra robustness, and the large, easy-to-read tally lamp is useful in multiple camera set-ups.

Wide field of view

The wide angle lens covers a generous over 102° (with Distortion correction: 85°) field of view (horizontal). As well as accommodating the presenter's entire face or body from close range without cropping, it can also cover the entire room, ensuring that everyone is visible in the frame.

Multiple streaming outputs

Streaming video available over HDMI, Ethernet and USB 3.0 interfaces offers even greater operational flexibility.

Easy IP connectivity, single-cable installation

Camera control, PoE and streaming video output are carried over a single Ethernet cable, reducing installation costs and simplifying integration in space-restricted or hard-to-reach locations. Full IP integration includes support for Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) and Real Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP). Support for NDI ®|HX is also available via an optional licence.

High quality 4K 60p images

The camera's large 1/1.8-type Exmor R CMOS sensor captures smooth, crisply detailed 4K 60p video with excellent low-light sensitivity.?

Audio input

Connect an external microphone or line-level source to capture clear pictures plus sound in lecture theatres and meeting rooms or on reality TV shows.

Broadcast-style tally light

The camera-mounted tally light gives visual confirmation to the lecturer or presenter when the camera is active. The horizontal bar-style light is easily visible to both performer/presenter and director.
