Datavideo PTC-305 4K 20x Tracking PTZ Camera

Datavideo PTC-305 4K PTZ Camera with Auto Tracking

 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.

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.

Quick Access to Framing Options

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.

RS-422, DVIP and Ethernet Camera Control

RS-422 and ethernet to use DVIP or VISCA over IP commands to integrate with larger control systems.

PTZ View Assist: Control up to four cameras

The camera control app is tailored for the Datavideo PTZ camera series. It can monitor the live streaming video from PTC-140, PTC-280 and PTC-300 series. The app can control up to 4 cameras simultaneously via DVIP, you can intuitively set up and recall the presets, and adjust white balance, focus and IRIS.

The app is able to decode the live streaming via RTSP, SRT, and NDI. Easily monitor the live streaming video and set up the parameters promptly in one application. Datavideo provides iOS and Android versions, which you can download on Google Play and App Store for free.

Dark or Light Body

The PTC-305 is available in dark gray or white to remain inconspicuous in permanent setups.

Build a reliable SRT live streaming workflow with all Datavideo products

Datavideo’s wide range of encoders, cameras, and hand-carry switchers are fully supported by SRT and dvCloud. Datavideo encoders and dvCloud provide reliable streams over unreliable networks.

By using a Datavideo encoder and dvCloud together, you can utilize SRT (instead of RTMP) on the initial problematic connection or “First Mile.” After your video stream reaches dvCloud, you can depend on dvCloud’s reliable, high-bandwidth network to deliver the stream to your favorite destinations, like Facebook and YouTube.
