Panasonic AW-UE160 4K Integrated PTZ Camera

The Panasonic AW-UE160 is 4K PTZ Camera for an era of enhanced creativity and the pursuit of visual expression.

The Panasonic AW-UE160 can be used in a variety of situations even when the flow of people and cost control are required, including shooting large-scale events and studio recording and streaming.

It overturns the conventions of the video content industry by combining a system camera and a PTZ camera. It has a unique style of video production that can be expressed through a variety of shooting techniques, an industry-leading shooting performance with a variety of new functions, and the scalability to support the most recent international standards, protocols, and I/Fs.

Features of the Panasonic AW-UE160:

High sensitivity of F14/2000 lx, equivalent to a studio camera
New generation engine that maximizes image sensor performance and improves image quality and AF performance
Industry’s first SMPTE ST2110 standard compatibility
Equipped with moiré reduction function by optical low-pass filter
Compatible with V-Log and HDR (HLG)
Equipped with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) and Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS)
Industry’s first 5G mobile router (USB tethering support) for high-speed, high-capacity video transmission
