BirdDog MAKI Ultra 4K Camera
The BirdDog MAKI Ultra is a 4K box camera built for professional video capture and streaming workflows. It delivers UHD 4K60 resolution with a powerful 12x optical zoom and a 72.8° angle of view. Integrated NDI|HX2 and NDI|HX3 support enables efficient IP-based production. This bundle suits producers needing a versatile, network-ready camera.
Connectivity and Build Practicality
The camera body provides SDI output at 1080p60 alongside independent HDMI and USB/UVC outputs for direct software connection. A built-in halo tally light aids on-air status awareness. PoE support allows power and data over a single Ethernet cable, reducing infrastructure complexity. The bundle includes a 6ft High-Speed HDMI cable with Ethernet and a 6ft USB 2.0 Type-A to Type-B cable supporting 480 Mbps transfer.
Thermal Noise and Power Profile
PoE power delivery simplifies cabling and centralises power management for quiet, reliable operation. The fanless box design eliminates mechanical noise during recording or live events. A 12 VDC power supply is included for installations without PoE infrastructure. Low-light performance remains clean without aggressive gain that would increase sensor heat.
