1" Sony Sensor
The best images are produced by the best sensors, and the P4K is built entirely around the best sensor in its class. The massive 1" Sony Exmor R CMOS backlit sensor produces truly stunning images in all shooting modes and frame rates, including HD and 4K.
NDI in its entirety
There are two varieties of NDI®: NDI® and NDI|HX. NDI® is a variable bit rate, I-Frame codec that is visually lossless and can reach around 140Mbits at 1080p60. NDI|HX is a compressed, long-GOP H.264 variant with a 1080p60 bitrate of around 12Mbits. P4K is a camera that supports Full NDI®.
Integration of BirdDog Cloud
P4K can communicate with BirdDog Cloud without requiring a computer running Cloud Core. Simply connect the P4K to your network and configure it using BirdDog Cloud Command to control all P4K functions from anywhere in the world. Roads? You don't need roads where we're going.
Shoot in authentic cinematic styles
P4K is a PTZ designed for the most demanding live production shoots. It supports all of the traditional frame rates you'd expect, including 29.97, but it can also be used as a camera for TV commercials, drama, and shooting 24p for that wonderful cinematic look.
Advanced Color Management
With user-selectable gamma settings and black gamma adjustment, fine-tuning your shot in a PTZ has never been easier. The legendary sensor technology of Sony sets the tone for your next high-quality production.
10-bit
P4K is a 10-bit sensor, and an end-to-end 10-bit workflow is possible with NDI4. Ideal for broadcasters and other productions where bit depth is important. You can record NDI feeds with 10-bit support using free tools like NewTek NDI Monitor or IsoCorder Pro.
6G SDI/HDMI and full NDI
Complete NDI. Two independent 6G SDI outputs and one HDMI 2.0 output are always active, allowing for incredibly flexible workflows.
Genlock
You can now use the Genlock input to synchronize multiple cameras. All of your cameras can now hit your NDI-enabled vision mixer at the same time, eliminating the need for frame buffers.
Precision control is at your fingertips
P4robotics K's are extremely precise and sensitive. Reduce the panning and tilting speeds to create dramatic super professional shots, or increase the speeds for high action sports to allow you to follow the movements.
Tally lights on all sides
The front, rear, and side Tally lights work together to form a 360-degree Tally light. Everyone on the set can now see which camera is live to air.
ePTZ in High Definition Mode
In HD Mode, you can use the large sensor to create Regions of Interest for your HD production. Take any HD frame from the 4K frames.
