Canon CR-N500 NDI|HX 15x PTZ Camera in White

Finished in titanium white, the Canon CR-N500 is a 4K PTZ camera designed for remote production across house of worship, education, broadcast, corporate, and event settings. Its Type 1.0 CMOS sensor uses larger photosites than the smaller chips common in PTZ cameras, delivering cleaner low-light images, while the smooth, responsive pan and tilt mechanism supports on-air movement and one-person operation.

Paired with the DIGIC DV 6 processor, the sensor records 4K UHD at 30p and Full HD up to 60 fps, aided by a 15x optical zoom (20x digital), a 73-degree wide angle of view, optical-shift stabilization, and Dual Pixel CMOS AF. NDI|HX2 over single-cable PoE+ carries video, audio, IP control, tally, and power, with RTSP/RTP and RTMP/RTMPS streaming and IP, serial, IR, or Wi-Fi control.
