NewTek introduces the NDI® PTZ3 UHD Camera, which combines professional audio with 4Kp60 video for the first time.
SAN ANTONIO, 13 October 2022 - NewTek, the leader in IP-based video technology and a subsidiary of the Vizrt Group, expands its PTZ line of cameras with the introduction of the PTZ3 UHD. The PTZ3 UHD is the only NewTek 4Kp60 camera on the market that combines both professional audio and ultra-high-definition video, all built on the unshakeable NDI® foundation.
The PTZ3 UHD enables video professionals, technology managers, and system designers to elevate video production by bringing 4Kp60 UHD video and professional audio, combined with control and tally, over the network while streamlining integration and installation with the incorporation of power over Ethernet (PoE).
"We recognize the significance and necessity of high-quality audio in any production workflow. By introducing professional audio to the PTZ3 UHD, we combine the power of ultra-high-definition video with expanded audio connectivity, making it easier than ever to integrate this excellent camera into any production workflow, says Will Waters, NewTek's vice president of product management.
Mastering Sound
For the first time in a NewTek UHD camera, Professional XLR audio input operates flawlessly with microphones, mixers, amplifiers, and soundboards. The Professional XLR integration provides clear, balanced audio directly from the camera into the NDI network, so customers and integrators can enjoy the finest audio fidelity.
Mastering Video
To ensure users deliver high-quality photos and video, the PTZ3 UHD improves pan/tilt/zoom quality with enhanced camera preset movement. Movements with ease-in and ease-out provide fluid, smooth transitions for a natural, high-quality production devoid of jerky or stuttering movements.
Mastering Interconnection
No other camera on the market provides this degree of control and simplicity. Whether using a single cable for audio and video, PTZ control, tally, and PoE for power, or connecting via NDI, NewTek PTZ Cameras appear on the network and can be seamlessly integrated into any workflow.
Constructed with NDI® at its core, the PTZ3 UHD ensures the tightest interaction with any NewTek live production system and any NDI® workflow - offering superb audio, flawless 4Kp60, and limitless production options.
