Panasonic has announced its new AW-UE150AW/AK 4K PTZ camera that offers built-in auto-tracking, enhanced pan, tilt, and zoom synchronization, and IP-based 4K video transmission, to increase operability and flexibility.
The AW-UE150AW/AK 4K PTZ camera has been designed to meet the needs of professional broadcasters and content creators, delivering advanced video quality, operability, and efficiency in studio-based video productions. The UE150AW/AK is the successor to the AW-UE150 – the PTZ camera of choice for many rental, staging, and broadcast applications.
Key features
- High-sensitivity 1.0-type sensor supports 4K/60p recording
- Supports multiple transmission protocols, including NDI® High Bandwidth for low-latency 4K video.
- Built-in auto-tracking for flexible shooting
- Optical Low-pass Filter for Superior Image Quality that reduces luminance and color moiré when filming monitors or LED walls
Seamless compatibility for IP-based video
The UE150AW/AK supports the NDI High Bandwidth protocol, enabling seamless IP-based, low-latency 4K video transmission. This is in addition to existing support for SRT and NDI HX2 protocols, ensuring steady performance in unstable network conditions.
It is also compatible with 12G-SDI, 2x 3G-SDI, HDMI, and fibre output formats. This enables the UE150AW/AK to be easily integrated into a variety of on-site production systems, making it the perfect choice for both remote production and live-streaming environments.
High-quality video
Equipped with a high-sensitivity 1.0-type 4K MOS sensor, Panasonic’s UE150AW/AK delivers high-quality video. Its wide-angle lens (75.1° horizontal), 20x optical zoom, and built-in auto-tracking functionality make it the ideal choice for a versatile range of installations.
The UE150AW/AK features an optical low-pass filter (OLPF) that reduces luminance and color moiré when filming monitors or LED walls, whilst HDR (HLG) compatibility delivers true-to-life image reproduction.
Its enhanced Optical Image Stabilizer (OIS) minimizes image shake during pan and tilt operations, and upgraded synchronization of pan, tilt, and zoom presets for a smoother camera operation.
Increased compatibility
The UE150AW/AK is compatible with Panasonic’s AK-HRP1010GJ/HRP1015GJ Remote Operation Panel for seamless color matching with studio cameras, increasing overall versatility and functionality within broadcasting setups.
The UE150AW/AK is scheduled for release in January 2025.
