SKAARHOJ PTZ Pro w/Blue Pill inside

The SKAARHOJ PTZ Pro V2 Camera Controller with Blue Pill Inside is a professional IP-based PTZ control surface featuring a 3-axis joystick, focus knob, OLED-equipped controls, and PoE support, designed for precise multi-camera operation in live production environments.

The SKAARHOJ PTZ Pro V2 Camera Controller with Blue Pill Inside is an advanced PTZ camera control surface built for broadcast, studio, and live streaming workflows. Powered by SKAARHOJ’s Blue Pill Inside architecture, it integrates processing directly into the unit, enabling fast setup, standalone operation, and seamless control across a wide range of IP-based camera systems.

At the heart of the controller is a precision 3-axis joystick paired with a dedicated focus knob, giving operators intuitive and highly accurate control over pan, tilt, zoom, and focus adjustments. This is supported by four backlit encoder knobs and a full set of programmable controls designed for flexible camera configuration and rapid scene adjustments.

The interface includes 10 camera selection and preset buttons, 8 menu navigation keys, and 9 multifunction buttons, many of which feature RGB backlighting and labeling support for clear visual feedback during live operation. These controls make it easy to switch between cameras, recall presets, and navigate system menus efficiently.

Designed for modern production environments, the PTZ Pro V2 supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing both power and data to be delivered through a single cable for simplified installation. It is also compatible with a wide range of VISCA-over-IP and networked PTZ cameras from major manufacturers such as Sony, Panasonic, Canon, BirdDog, Lumens, PTZOptics, and Blackmagic Design.

Optional upgrades include a Hall Effect joystick for enhanced precision and durability, as well as an SDI expansion module for hybrid production workflows.
