Telycam Explore 1-Inch Sensor Broadcast Level PTZ Camera PDAF 20x Optical Zoom

With an industry-leading 1.0-type Sony CMOS sensor, the Explore revolutionises image quality.

This powerful sensor excels in low-light conditions, capturing stunning detail with minimal noise.

Its superior light sensitivity, combined with an impressive depth of field, ensures sharp focus on subjects while beautifully blurring the background.

This makes it the versatile choice for broadcast professionals who demand the best, delivering cinematic quality in every shot.

PDAF

Experience precise focus with industry-leading Phase Detection Auto Focus (PDAF) technology.

PDAF technology ensures fast and precise tracking of subjects, even in fast-paced environments.

Capture incredibly sharp footage with minimal focusing, thanks to the lightning-fast response times of the PDAF.

Enjoy the freedom to focus on framing and composition while PDAF takes care of the complex task of keeping subjects in focus, delivering professional-level results every time.

Built-in ND filter for light management

Explore features a built-in electronic variable ND filter, allowing you to adjust light transmission levels to 1.6%, 6.3%, 25%, and 100%.

Users can also attach their own ND filter directly to the lens using the dedicated threads for precise control over lighting in different scenarios.

NDI® and NDI® HX support

Explore PTZ camera supports both NDI® and NDI®|HX, providing flexible and efficient video streaming options.

NDI® provides video high-quality, low-latency video over IP networks, while NDI®|HX optimizes bandwidth usage for smoother performance in network-constrained environments.

This dual support provides robust, adaptable connectivity for diverse broadcast needs.

High-speed 12G-SDI for professional 4K video

The Explore PTZ camera features 12G-SDI, a high-speed video interface capable of transmitting 4K video at 60 frames per second over a single cable.

This provides high-quality, uncompressed video output with minimal latency, making it ideal for professional broadcast and live event production.

The 12G-SDI connection also supports longer cable runs without signal degradation, providing reliable performance in demanding environments.

Output Options versatile

Explore offers multiple output options, providing 4K60p output via NDI®, NDI®HX, 12G-SDI, HDMI and SFP+.

It offers great flexibility and compatibility for Telycam users.

Local recording for backup and cloud production

Explore allows you to record directly into the camera via a microSD slot.

Simply insert a microSD card for local recording, providing instant backup during network outages, quick access for event review and files ready to upload to your favorite cloud platform.

This versatile recording solution provides peace of mind and streamlines your cloud production process.

Tally

Explore features tally indicators, visible on both the front and back of the camera. camera.

These lights work seamlessly with NDI, Visca Serial and Visca over IP protocols.

With just a glance, production staff and talent on stage can identify which camera is currently live ("Program") and which is ready for the next transition ("Preview").

This intuitive system ensures clear communication, ensuring a smooth video production.
