BirdDog 3x XL Ultra PTZ Cameras and KBD Controller Combo (White)

The BirdDog XL Ultra Combo packages three XL Ultra large-sensor PTZ cameras with the BirdDog KBD Controller, giving broadcast, virtual production, and premium AV operations a complete multi-camera system in white. Each camera pairs a 4/3 inch CMOS sensor with 4K60 capture and 20x optical zoom for pronounced depth of field, strong low-light performance, and cinematic image quality under precise operator control.

A second built-in 100 degree panoramic camera with a 1/1.8 inch sensor delivers a simultaneous wide shot, with both cameras independently controllable and outputting 4K60 at once. Connectivity spans simultaneous NDI High Bandwidth and NDI HX3, 12G-SDI, HDMI, SFP+ fiber, PoE++, and balanced XLR audio, plus dual streaming via NDI, SRT, RTMP, or RTSP. The KBD Controller adds a four-camera display, tally integration with TriCaster and vMix, and NDI, VISCA, ONVIF, RS-232, and RS-422 control.
