Product Overview
The PTZ controller built
for live broadcast
One joystick. One large touchscreen. Up to 200 Panasonic PTZ cameras on a single IP network. The AW-RP150GJ is the flagship remote camera controller in the Panasonic lineup — and the one operators ask for by name on the production floor.
Panasonic AW-RP150GJ — professional PTZ camera controller for live broadcast, streaming, and multi-camera event production
The Panasonic AW-RP150GJ touchscreen remote camera controller is the most capable controller in Panasonic's robotic camera lineup — built for live TV studios, streaming production environments, and large-venue events where camera operators need to manage multiple PTZ heads from a single station. It builds on the AW-RP120 and AW-RP50 with the improvements operators actually asked for: a redesigned one-hand joystick that handles both PTZ and focus simultaneously, a larger touch-panel LCD for live monitoring and menu control, and IP-based management that scales to 200 cameras over a single switching hub.
Whether you're pairing it with the AW-UE150 4K PTZ camera, the newer AW-UE160, or a mixed fleet of Panasonic HE and HN series cameras, the AW-RP150GJ fits cleanly into your existing broadcast infrastructure — SDI, IP, or serial RS-422. SKU: PAN-AW-RP150GJ5 | MPN: AW-RP150GJ5
Why broadcast operators choose the AW-RP150GJ
Every feature on this controller was shaped by real-world feedback from working camera operators. Here is what that looks like in practice.
Large touchscreen GUI
Camera image display, switching, menus, and indicators all on one touch panel. Only the controls you actually reach for are on screen — nothing buried during a live segment.
One-hand joystick — PTZ and focus
Pan, tilt, zoom, and focus all from a single joystick. Your other hand stays free for cueing talent, flagging a director, or adjusting audio — essential on a live set.
Touch focus with Focus in Red
Tap any area of the live image to snap focus there instantly. The Focus in Red overlay outlines the sharpest region in red — no guesswork, no separate monitor required.
Preset memory with speed control
Save camera positions, angles, and settings. Recall with a single tap. Set playback speed by time or by rate to match any editorial transition style or director preference.
Camera tracing memory
Record up to 5 minutes of camera movement across 10 operations per camera. Reproduce that exact trajectory on cue — purpose-built for repeatable weekly broadcasts and house of worship productions.
IP control — up to 200 cameras
Connect via a switching hub over LAN with PoE+ and manage up to 200 remote Panasonic PTZ cameras simultaneously. Five cameras can also be controlled via direct RS-422 serial connection.
Everything you need — nothing you don't
The touch panel GUI consolidates camera switching, live image monitoring, menu access, and indicators into one clean interface. Only the most frequently used controls appear on the panel — the RP150GJ is designed so operators never have to dig through sub-menus during a live segment.
Tap anywhere on the live image to pull focus to that region instantly. The Focus in Red display gives a clear visual confirmation without needing an external monitor — exactly what's needed during fast-moving live events.
- Live camera image display during active shooting
- One-tap camera switching across the full fleet
- Touch focus with red frame visual confirmation
- All indicators and menus consolidated in one panel
Cut setup time on large-scale production events
Configure your scene files, system settings, and camera parameters once. Save everything to an SD card. Walk the floor and clone identical settings to every camera in the venue — what used to take hours of manual IP configuration now takes minutes.
For the largest deployments, IP control through a switching hub supports up to 200 remote cameras simultaneously. Five cameras can also be managed via direct RS-422 serial daisy chain for legacy or hybrid setups.
- SD card saves and clones full camera configuration
- 200 cameras simultaneously via IP switching hub (LAN PoE+)
- Up to 5 cameras in RS-422 serial connection
- Dramatically reduces on-location setup time for large events
Professional I/O for real broadcast infrastructure
The AW-RP150GJ connects into existing SDI, IP, and serial camera control infrastructure without compromise or adapters.
Three crops from one camera — controlled live from the RP150GJ
Paired with the Panasonic AW-UE150, the AW-RP150GJ gives operators live control over the camera's built-in cropping function — producing three independently framed regions from a single camera head. Each region is color-coded (yellow, green, and magenta) and adjustable with the joystick while monitoring the output in real time. It is a cost-effective way to generate multi-angle coverage from a single high-quality PTZ head in constrained environments or tighter budgets.
Real production environments where the AW-RP150GJ performs
Live TV broadcast
Preset recall and smooth one-hand joystick control during live segments. One operator, multiple cameras, zero fumbling on air.
Live streaming production
IP control over a switching hub means a single operator can manage the full multi-camera setup — no extra crew needed for professional results.
Events and conferences
SD card deployment slashes setup time on large-venue events. Clone settings to 50 or more cameras in minutes instead of hours of manual configuration.
House of worship and education
Tracing memory handles repeatable service and lecture camera moves automatically — no manually repeating the same sequence every session.
23 compatible Panasonic camera models
Updated from the official Panasonic compatibility chart at pro-av.panasonic.net. Previous listings showed 11 models — the complete official list covers 23 models across PTZ, multi-purpose, and memory card camera categories.
