Thank you AJay for making me aware of this camera, I picked up one and it was so easy to set up and I have control of most of the functions right from my joystick controller the church streams get lots of compliments for the quality, we have another PTZ that cost us about a hundred dollars more (by the way the E20 cost me $449 on Amazon Business price) and I am yet to get it to talk to the joystick, ( i got our RGBLINK switcher to control it) may even replace that one with the non NDI E20. Thank you for your review of affordable gear for media ministry keep up the excellent work. God Bless !

Awesome! Now we just need a box that converts multiple RTMP or NDI signals to multiple HDMI ports. That way we can connect one network cable to the esch PTZ cam but then have one cable to the box as well then we can connect short hdmi cables from the box to an ATEM. I would love for BMD to integrate NDI and Dante to thier ATEMs but I doubt it will ever happen.
@lawrence_SoCal Жыл бұрын
Issue to consider is latency differences between connection types. Then, with NDI, we bring all camera videoed feeds directly into OBC PC (obviously need 1GbE network, preferably isolated/protected) .. no need for a switcher

I ended up acquiring this camera and so far the learning curve has not been too steep thanks to this video. I use a stream deck for controlling functions in OBS. My budget didn't allow for a joystick, but using Bitfocus Companion was a means to connect the PTZ controls to the camera. The port number has to be set to TCP 1259(CameraCMS Software->Remote configuration->Protocol->Protocol->TCP) in order to connect to the VISCA PTZ Optics connection on Bitfocus. Once the camera is connected, and buttons assigned, the stream deck can do basic joystick functions, presets, zoom.
@lawrence_SoCal Жыл бұрын
In terms of things to test on this and other PTZ cameras, my suggestions would be motor movement (which you do already show), then show auto-focus at typical Sanctuary distances, most importantly in low light (thinking candle lit procession during Silent Night). I love our Panasonic 1080p 20X NDI camera, but adding more cameras at similar price isn’t an option. But I need to know if low-light video quality is good enough

This camera doesn't support Hislity onvif controller(it seems they are having different onvif protocols, when we use ONVIF Device Manager, avkans camera can be controlled well), but it works well with AVKANS joystick controller, and PTZoptics controllers. You should add it by manual, enter the IP address of the camera, and visca port of camera is 1259, then you can connect it and control it.
