The ikan GA230-PTZ-OTTICA is a specialized bundle that includes the E-Image GA230-PTZ 2-stage aluminum tripod kit, an included P6 quick release plate, and the Ikan OTTICA NDI®|HX PTZ camera. Because of the OTTICA's PTZ functions, the need for a fluid head is eliminated. The GA230-PTZ replaces the fluid head with a P6 quick release plate. The OTTICA video camera from Ikan features a 1/2.8" CMOS sensor and a 5.5-110mm varifocal lens with 20x zoom to capture videos at a maximum resolution of 1080p at 60fps. It supports POE (802.3af), HDMI, SDI, Ethernet (NDI®|HX), RS-232, RS-485, and audio-in connectivity. The camera uses a step drive motor mechanism and motor drive controller for smooth and noiseless PTZ operation. In addition, it supports H.264/H.265 video compression and AAC, MP3, and G.711A audio compression formats.
CAMERA PERFORMANCE
Advanced ISP processing algorithms provide vivid images with a strong sense of depth, high resolution, and fantastic color rendition. The OTTICA supports H.265/H.264 encoding which makes motion video fluent and clear even with less than ideal bandwidth conditions. A full-bandwidth NDI® 1080p x60 fps video data stream uses approximately 100Mbps, whereas a video data stream using NDI|HX only uses around 10Mbps (approximately 1/10th of full-bandwidth NDI), which is a significant reduction in bandwidth required for sending the video data stream through the network.
SUPERB HIGH-DEFINITION IMAGE
The OTTICA employs 1/2.8 inch high-quality CMOS sensor and supports resolutions up to 1920x1080 with frame rates up to 60 fps. Supported outputs include HDMI,3G-SDI, wired LAN (NDI®|HX), and wireless LAN interfaces. The 3G-SDI will work up to 100 meters in distance with transmission at 1080p60 format.
VARIABLE OPTICAL ZOOM LENS
The camera includes a 5.5-110mm f/1.6-3.5 varifocal lens with a viewing angle ranging from 3.3° to 54.7° and offers 20x optical zoom.
AUTO FOCUS TECHNOLOGY
The OTTICA™ employs an autofocus algorithm that ensures the len's focusing performance is lens fast, accurate, and stable.
LOW NOISE AND HIGH SNR
The Low Noise CMOS effectively ensures the camera's high SNR. Advanced 2D/3D noise reduction technology is also used to further reduce the noise while ensuring image sharpness.
QUIET PTZ
By adopting a high accuracy step-driving motor mechanism, the OTTICA™ performs smoothly and quietly even when moving quickly to any position.
LOW-POWER SLEEP FUNCTION
The OTTICA™ supports a low-power sleep/wake up function. The consumption is lower than 500mW while in sleep mode.
NOTE: Ikan's OTTICA cameras do not require the additional purchase of an NDI® License to use and/or operate. Licensing is already included in the camera pricing.
The OTTICA camera is NOT compatible with the Blackmagic Design ATEM Television Studio HD at 1080p 60fps. It is, however, compatible with any other video switcher including Black Magic's other ATEM switchers such as the ATEM Mini & ATEM Mini Pro.
