Canon RC-IP100 PTZ Controller
€1,799.00
Centralised, hands-on command of a multi-camera PTZ rig becomes far less stressful once a dedicated console handles the heavy lifting. The Canon...
Built for production houses that handle multi-camera shoots without an extra crew member behind each lens, the Canon CR-N300 Black brings broadcast-grade colour science into a discreet PTZ body. Its 1/2.3-inch CMOS sensor paired with the DIGIC DV6 processor renders 4K UHD at up to 29.97p and Full HD up to 59.94p, holding detail across skin tones and stage lighting where lower-tier remote heads tend to flatten the image.
The integrated 20x optical zoom (f=3.67–73.4 mm, F/1.8–2.8) reaches a 35 mm-equivalent telephoto of roughly 601 mm in 4K, while optical image stabilisation keeps tight framing usable on truss-mounted or ceiling installations. Hybrid AF blends contrast and phase-detection pixels, locking focus on speakers or musicians with confidence at apertures as wide as F/1.8 and down to about 1.5 lux. Pan sweeps ±170° at up to 300°/sec and tilt covers -30° to +100°, letting operators recall up to 100 presets for repeatable corporate, sport or lecture-capture sequences.
Signal routing answers what mixed venues actually require: HDMI with 4:2:2 10-bit output, a 3G-SDI BNC for long cable runs, USB Type-C for UVC conferencing, plus a Gigabit RJ45 with PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) that carries video, control, tally and power on a single line. Streaming engineers move between NDI|HX, RTMP/RTMPS, RTP/RTSP, SRT, Canon's XC protocol and FreeD without bolting on external converters.
Command of the CR-N300 reaches the unit over LAN, Wi-Fi, IR or RS-422, and Canon's free Webcam Driver aggregates as many as five cameras into one Ethernet handoff for any UVC-compatible application. The bundled Auto Tracking RA-AT001(Lite) firmware option follows a presenter using face detection — note that only the Lite licence ships with this unit, while the full RA-AT001 capability is sold separately as a paid software licence. Pair the camera with a Canon RC-IP100 controller and a full multi-position live shoot becomes a single-operator job.

The CR-N300 makes content creation and streaming simple. Equipped with a 1/2.3-inch CMOS sensor with 4K UHD resolution, 20x image stabilised optical zoom and a wide range of streaming and control protocols, as well as the ability to automate your productions using Auto Tracking App RA-AT001(Lite), it’s the ideal choice for a variety of productions.
20x Optical zoom for incredible flexibility
Capture all the detail you need, thanks to Canon’s advanced 4K optics which feature a flexible 20x optical zoom covering a broad focal range of 29.3-601mm (35mm equivalent), ensuring great flexibility. Equipped with image stabilisation, for minimal image disruption when moving.
IP Streaming and Control to transform your productions
The CR-N300 boasts a comprehensive range of IP control and streaming protocols up to 4K UHD 30p allowing for greater control for your production needs. Featuring major protocols such as NDI|HX, RTMP, RTP/RTSP, RTMPS, SRT, FreeD and Canon’s XC Protocol, it will fit into most new or most existing systems, making it an extremely flexible option.
Hybrid AF for precise focus
The CR-N300 combines high-precision contrast AF with high-speed phase-detection AF, ensuring rapid and accurate focusing of the subject, even in low light conditions. Equipped with a bespoke external sensor which measures the distance to the subject and compares the point of focus with that determined by the Contrast AF system. This Hybrid AF system is particularly effective in low light situations and provides fast, accurate and reliable Autofocus with greater accuracy than Contrast AF alone.
Flexible connectivity for your workflow
The CR-N300 features a whole host of connections to ensure the ultimate flexibility in workflows. Featuring a HDMI port which can achieve 4K UHD, 4:2:2 10-bit. The camera also boasts a 3G-SDI port, USB Port, 3.5mm Audio Input and a PoE+ LAN port.
Smooth, precise control
The CR-N300 is equipped with a high-precision drive mechanism, enabling the Pan and Tilt movement to be finely adjusted at variable speeds using controllers such as RC-IP100, Canon Remote Camera Control Application or a tablet via Wi-Fi, to capture the perfect shot.
