Vizrt PTZ3 PLUS & PTZ3 UHD PLUS cameras

Connect, capture, and create beautiful live productions and presentations with two PTZ cameras built for BroadcastAV

Offering exceptional HD or UHD picture quality, 20-30x optical zoom, great low-light performance, and phantom-powered audio, the PTZ3 PLUS and PTZ3 UHD PLUS cameras combine quality hardware with intelligent production-enhancing features, including AI presenter tracking and the world’s first FreeD tracking data embedded via NDI|HX. All in a sleek, discrete body that blends into any space.

Whether you’re live streaming, producing a corporate town hall, capturing live events, or anything else that demands high quality audio and video, PTZ3 PLUS cameras have you covered. NDI connectivity means the camera simply appears on your network for easy setup, and configuration of augmented reality/virtual reality solutions like Viz Virtual Studio Go is now easier than ever with FreeD tracking data embedded in every frame over NDI|HX. You’ll be making broadcast-quality productions in no time!

Connect

Cover all bases with NDI® at its core, 3G-SDI and HDMI outputs, and RS232 control. Simplify setups with a single ethernet cable providing NDI® audio and video plus PTZ control, tally, power, and the world’s first FreeD-over-NDI|HX.

Vizrt PTZ cameras simply appear on the network and can immediately be built into any workflow with ease, while native NDI®|HX3 compatibility delivers broadcast quality video with super low latency – using a fraction of the bandwidth of full NDI.

Combined with Viz Connect Tetra’s NDI Bridge functionality, PTZ3 PLUS cameras can be deployed anywhere in the world and automatically connect to your network for the simplest remote setups.

Capture

Capture presentations and live productions in crystal clear clarity with HD or UHD 4K resolutions, with wide aperture lenses, large sensors, and optical low pass filters giving excellent low light performance and depth of field control.

Intelligently track presenters automatically with AI presenter tracking, so talent is always in shot and exactly where you want them to be, with multiple subject framing choices and aspect ratios to choose from.

Connect to any powered and non-powered audio source with phantom-powered mini XLR input for professional audio capture with microphones, mixers, amplifiers, and soundboards.

Create

Create content easily by connecting and controlling your PTZ3 PLUS camera to any TriCaster, CaptureCast, Viz Virtual Studio Go, or any other SDI- or NDI-enabled device.

Adjust subject tracking using macros on your TriCaster, while silky smooth ease-in and ease-out movements deliver seamless, smooth transitions for a natural, superior-quality production without jittery or stuttering movements.

Create exciting audience experiences with easier than ever setup of AR/VR systems like Viz Virtual Studio Go with embedded FreeD camera tracking data over NDI|HX.
