BirdDog X1 PTZ Camera with 20x Zoom (Black)
The BirdDog X1 PTZ Camera offers a high-performance, versatile solution for users who require greater reach than standard wide-angle cameras. Featuring a 20x optical zoom, the X1 is perfectly suited for larger venues, lecture halls, and houses of worship where the camera must be placed at a distance from the subject while maintaining crisp, high-definition 1080p60 imagery. Powered by BirdDog’s custom silicon, this camera ensures industry-leading low latency and high-quality video transmission via Full NDI® and NDI®|HX3 protocols.
Beyond its optical capabilities, the X1 is designed to streamline the production workflow. It includes an integrated OLED status screen on the camera base, providing immediate visual confirmation of the device’s IP address, device name, and stream settings. This eliminates the guesswork often associated with IP camera networking. Additionally, the camera features a built-in, configurable tally light that keeps presenters and talent informed during live broadcasts, enhancing the professional feel of your production.
Installation and management are simplified through PoE (Power over Ethernet) support, which allows the camera to receive both power and data over a single network cable, significantly reducing installation time and cabling complexity. Coupled with advanced AI-driven subject tracking, the X1 is a robust, “set-it-and-forget-it” tool for content creators and production teams looking for reliable, high-zoom performance in a professional IP-video ecosystem.
