1-Inch Sensor: Bigger Sensor, Better Image

Boasting the industry-leading Sony 1-inch large CMOS sensor, Explore XE revolutionizes image quality. This powerful sensor excels in low-light conditions, capturing stunning detail with minimal noise. Its superior light sensitivity, combined with an impressive depth of field, ensures sharp focus on subjects while beautifully blurring backgrounds. This makes it the versatile choice for broadcast professionals who demand the best, delivering cinematic quality in every shot.

PDAF

Experience the power of precise focusing with the industry-leading phase-detection autofocus (PDAF) ability. PDAF technology ensures rapid and accurate subject tracking, even in fast-paced environments. Capture stunningly sharp footage with minimal focus hunting, thanks to PDAF’s lightning-fast response times. Enjoy the freedom to concentrate on framing and composition while PDAF handles the intricate task of keeping your subjects in focus, delivering professional-grade results every time.

NDI®HX3: Enhanced Performance & Lower Latency for Live Production

NDI®HX3 brings better quality and lower latency to video production, supporting H.264/H.265 compression for flexibility and performance. With NDI®HX3 certification, Explore XE series provide superior video quality with minimal latency, ensuring smooth and professional live productions. The optimized low latency of NDI®HX3 enhances real-time transmission, making it perfect for dynamic and interactive content creation.

FreeD Integration Unlocks Immersive Virtual Productions

FreeD is a protocol that enables precise transmission of Pan, Tilt, Zoom, and Focus (PTZF) data directly from the camera to tracking system. Widely supported by most virtual set systems, FreeD makes virtual productions easier than ever. The Explore XE seamlessly integrates FreeD technology, empowering users to explore dynamic shooting angles and perspectives, ideal for versatile real-world and virtual-world applications. Explore XE’s broad compatibility with industry-leading virtual set systems like Brainstorm, Vizrt, Zero Density, Aximmetry, Unreal Engine, and VSet3D ensures a smooth workflow for all your virtual production needs.

Robust Audio Capabilities

The Explore XE features 3.5mm line-in and Mini XLR with Phantom power, providing compatibility with various microphones and audio equipment.

Versatile Output Options

The Explore XE offers diverse output options, including 4K60p resolution through NDI®HX3 and HDMI, connections. Users can choose the output method that best suits their production needs, ensuring flexibility and compatibility.

Local Recording for Backup and Cloud Production

Explore XE empowers you with in-camera recording via a microSD card slot. Simply insert a Micro SD Card for local recording, providing instant backup during network issues, quick access for event review, and readily available files for upload to your preferred cloud platform. This versatile recording solution ensures peace of mind and streamlines your cloud production process.

Dual Tally Lights for Effortless Production Cues

Explore XE features built-in dual tally lights, visible on both the front and back of the camera. These lights work seamlessly with NDI, Visca Serial, and Visca over IP protocols. With a simple glance, on-screen talent and crew can identify the currently live camera (“Program”) and the one lined up for the next transition (“Preview”). This intuitive system ensures clear communication, guaranteeing smooth video production.

Seamless Camera Setup with SSDP

Setting up your Telycam PTZ camera has never been easier, thanks to SSDP integration. This feature streamlines the process of finding your camera’s IP address, especially under multi-camera streaming, eliminating the need for complicated searches or additional tools. Simply connect your camera with an Ethernet cable, ensuring it’s on the same local network with your computer.

Native AI-Based Auto-Tracking

The Explore XE features AI-based auto-tracking, automatically following subjects to enhance ease of use and capture the moments flawlessly.
