4K PTZ Camera & Joystick for Live Production
The PTZOptics Move 4K pairs a 1/1.8" 8.42MP CMOS sensor with a 30x optical zoom lens and 16x digital zoom. It outputs UHD 4K60 over IP and HDMI alongside 1080p60 via 3G-SDI. Integrated auto-tracking follows presenters without an operator, making it suited to classrooms, houses of worship and conference rooms running Teams, Zoom or Skype.
Sustained Operation with NDI|HX 3 and Wide Dynamic
Low-bandwidth NDI|HX 3 streaming keeps network load predictable during long sessions, while wide dynamic range and 3D noise reduction maintain consistent image quality in mixed or low light. The camera supports 255 programmable presets recallable over IP, RS-232 or RS-485, enabling repeatable, hands-free shot changes across extended productions without operator fatigue.
Connectivity Limits Across IP, SDI, HDMI and USB
Video reaches 4K60 only on IP and HDMI paths; 3G-SDI caps at 1080p60. Control and tally integrate through RS-232, RS-485 and IP, while 3.5 mm stereo audio in/out handles local sound. Power can be drawn from DC or PoE, so deployment depends on available network infrastructure and cabling distances for each chosen interface.

Questions about this item
How much power and heat does the Move 4K camera produce when running all day?
The camera supports both DC input and Power over Ethernet, so it draws power from a single network cable without a separate adapter, keeping cabling simple and heat output low for continuous operation.
What cables or network gear must I already have to connect the camera and the SuperJoy controller?
You need an Ethernet network with PoE capability or a DC power supply for the camera, plus HDMI, 3G-SDI or USB cables for video, and serial cables for RS-232 or RS-485 if you want to control the camera directly from the SuperJoy joystick.
Will the 30x optical zoom and 1080p60 SDI output work with my older 1080p monitors and switchers?
Yes, the camera outputs 1080p60 over 3G-SDI and 1080p over HDMI, so it connects directly to legacy 1080p displays and production switchers while still offering the full 30x optical zoom range.
