The Datavideo PTC-285T is a 4K PTZ camera with automatic tracking for live production, lectures and conferences. Tracking can keep the subject framed without continuous manual camera operation. Its 1/2.8-inch Sony CMOS sensor and 12× optical zoom help capture both a presenter close-up and a wider view. The camera provides HDMI 2.0 and 3G-SDI video outputs, IP streaming and dual-stream output. HDBaseT carries video, control, power and tally over a single shielded Cat 6A cable, simplifying installation when the camera is placed away from the control position. The PTC-285T integrates with existing production systems and supports remote control via RS-422, DVIP or Sony VISCA over IP.
The camera can track a selected person and automatically adjust pan, tilt and zoom. It suits lectures, conferences and live productions where the presenter needs to stay in frame without continuous manual camera operation.
