Great review from another PTZ camera enthusiast !

[@RevisionMedia]

Thanks brother! Much appreciated!!

[@MauricioManoelCoelhoJunior]

Hi Team, thanks for this support. I just bought this camera, and I'm waiting for it to arrive. The Tenveo have the new model TEVO-VL20N NDI, do you know about this camera? It's possible to create a new review using this? Thanks.

[@oscarwindsor3900]

Thank you for the video info. I have purchased one for a presentation for a client at an event. Question if I may? Is it possible to record what we shoot through the Tenveo PTZ Conference Camera? If so How? thank you in advance.

[@ANAS3643]

I need your advice. Is this camera excellent for large classes? I want one that works on the Zoom, Team, as web Camera in any platform.

[@m2drive839]

I looked at their website, their ptz have good image quality because it has Sony image sensor. But, they don't have NDI & PoE in one camera. Thanks for the video, your info helps a lot.

[@RevisionMedia]

You’re very welcome!!

[@Jkooltube]

They have a NDI version of this PTZ on Amazon.

[@Carol-Zou]

hi, we have a camera with NDI and PoE at the same time. do you still need it?

[@zachklein5323]

hi Just wondering if they delays have been fixed yet and also wondeirng what type of controller you are using to control the camera?

[@user-cw8kl1wq3f]

Hello, can you tell me how it went with the smatv?? I'm looking for the church, there is little light in your opinion... do you recommend it? They are a set of 3+ joysticks...20x...do you think they are good?

[@JoseBruzon-pl1re]

Hi!!!! How this ptz camera works with Vmix??? Must be added by rtsp or just directly??? And the ptz funtions works with Vmix too or not?????

[@Jkooltube]

The NDI version have POE?

[@andrewnegru]

Nice! Looking forward to more videos. We have 4 canon hg g30. We built devices using wii nunchuck controllers to control the cameras canon g30. But we want to update, to 4K. Hoping they come out with 4K soon

[@RevisionMedia]

Sounds like a great setup! 4K is great if you have the bandwidth and other equipment for it. Otherwise it just looks like 1080p to your viewers. It’s a great goal to have though!

[@andrewnegru]

mostly for post editing 4k needed, we run fiber and have no issues on bandwidth.@@RevisionMedia

[@CoG7TVBirminghamUK]

I just purchased one of these, the hdmi version. Testing it for my church. The image quality seems to good to be true

[@RevisionMedia]

Right?? It’s such a surprise! They are going to be working out the issues in a later update. If you have any, you can email support so they are aware of the issues.

[@leonkitchen4430]

Can this be connected straight to a monitor for live display via the hdmi?

[@RevisionMedia]

@@leonkitchen4430 yes it can! That’s a great idea!

[@A-Doug]

Can you control this camera through OBS PTZ when connected using NDI? Or control it with a Windows PC at all? I don’t have a PTZ controller so I need to control this using my computer. Edit: I got the VHD20H model. For anyone curious you can't control it through NDI you need the model specific for NDI. You can make a work around using RTSP in VLC to see it in NDI but you can't control it. You can control the camera while networked by loggging into the cameras IP portal. You can also control this in OBS using the PTZ Controls plugin using the VISCA/TCP connection.

[@LMHop]

Is the NDI capable? If not, do they have one that is of the same quality as this one? And finally, do you like the image quality of this camera better than the AVKANS 20X Zoom camera? I'm trying to choose a camera for close ups of our baptisms both into our ProPresenter computer for FOH screens as well as our separate streaming computer. Thanks for this review!

[@RevisionMedia]

You’re welcome! Sorry it was such a late reply! They don’t have an NDI version as of right now. I know that they plan on coming out with one. I actually like this camera a lot more than the AVKANS. To be honest, the AVKANS is sitting in my office right now. It’s still a great camera, don’t get me wrong. I just prefer the TENVEO. The link I’ve provided in the description is the camera in the video. It’s awesome camera! I hope this helps!!

[@rompo]

Been using an old Tenveo PTZ model (1st gen probably) on our church for a few years via remote..so far works well.. just curious though..what's the model of your controller? thanks!

[@RevisionMedia]

Hey there! Sorry for the late reply. I was taking a digital detox. This is the controller we are using. amzn.to/4aazxbo

[@andrellethompson818]

Can it be miunted upside down

[@newcovenantgracegcc2350]

I tried to connect this camera to our computer using the HMDI and it did not recognize the camera on QuickTime. Only when I used the USB cable, did it recognize the camera. We have already wired for HMDI. Any suggestions?

[@RevisionMedia]

Sounds like you might need a video capture card. This converts your HDMI to USB so that it can be recognized. I would recommend this just from experience with using them. amzn.to/3KiZIRC But this one is cheaper and will get you by for a few months. amzn.to/4bPpgRV

[@themorleyc]

I cant find a 4k version of this camera or is 1080p enough for video conferencing in a meeting room?

[@Carol-Zou]

hi, we have a 4K version camera now, do you still need it?

[@blench21]

Is this camera better than the SMTAV?

[@olivername]

can,t open flimware download link connect find page

[@ajstandley001]

I got these for my church and am just realizing you can't daisy chain RS-232 with them... Can you split the signal from a joystick controller to each of the cameras?

[@RevisionMedia]

That’s the way we have it set up now. We have each camera and the joystick connect to a POE network switch. It works great!

[@paulwayne6235]

Can you explain this set up in detail for 2 cameras?@@RevisionMedia

[@RevisionMedia]

@@paulwayne6235 I would love to! I’ve been thinking of the next video and you just came up with the idea. Thank you!!

[@thelastjess]

does this camera offer any exposure settings?

[@RevisionMedia]

It does in both the IP menu and the on camera menu.

[@mrginom]

Hello, does this camera have other options besides 60FPS?

[@mrginom]

Seems to be the case: "4:15" of video.

[@RevisionMedia]

Yes it does! So sorry for the late reply!

[@ADKDIO]

PTZ Camera，、The video is great

[@N1cksonEduard0]

Hi, I don't remember the password, is there a way to reset it using the remote control to return to factory settings?

[@RevisionMedia]

Yes. You can do that from the settings menu.

[@Kev7274]

Trying to update the firmware off the website and it wants a password.

[@zachklein5323]

Have you guys tried Tenveo's Camera Controller yet?

[@RevisionMedia]

Not yet! They were going to send us one to review but it looks like we might need to just buy it!

[@Carol-Zou]

@@RevisionMedia do you still need it? maybe we can do a best price for you so that you can try and test the quality of our controller?

[@AmazeStudios]

Joystick delay and no super smooth movements make it unusable for my clients

[@RevisionMedia]

For now. There are going to be some firmware updates that should fix it. We worked out quite a bugs already. Clean footage though right?

[@TeLometiTo]

looks like a "4k" security camera

[@capt.cuddles7233]

Too bad it’s not 4k or 8k

[@RevisionMedia]

Yeah that would be nice. But for streaming I don’t know that you would really see that quality anyways.
