PTZOptics Studio 4K 12x Zoom Box Camera (Gray)

PTZOptics Studio 4K 12x Zoom Box Camera (Gray) is a compact 4K box camera built for production spaces that need clean image capture, flexible output, and network-friendly integration. It captures up to UHD 4K60 and uses a 12x optical zoom lens with 16x digital zoom, making it useful for fixed camera positions in studios, classrooms, houses of worship, live venues, and hybrid production rooms.

From a broadcast workflow perspective, the strength of this camera is connection flexibility. It provides SDI, HDMI, USB-C, and NDI HX2-enabled IP output, so it can feed traditional switchers, USB-based systems, or network video environments depending on the production design.

Why It Helps

This camera is a good fit when you need a fixed 4K shot that still has optical zoom control. In a live production, that can mean a wide room angle, a stage shot, a scoreboard view, a presenter camera, or a clean secondary angle that stays ready throughout the show.

The camera is also easy to place into different signal chains. SDI and HDMI are familiar for switcher-based workflows, USB-C works for computer-connected video, and NDI HX2 over IP gives network production teams a cleaner path for routing video across the LAN.
