Production teams that need a discreet, ceiling- or wall-mounted PTZ camera blending into white-finished environments — corporate boardrooms, broadcast studios with light sets, university lecture halls — should consider the Canon CR-N500 White. Its titanium white housing matches light-coloured interiors, while the pre-installed RA-AT001 Auto Tracking full license removes the need to purchase the application separately. That means ten-level adjustable tracking sensitivity, manual or automatic subject selection, custom target positioning within the frame, and up to five saveable tracking configurations — all operational from the first power-on. Auto Framing handles multi-person compositions, face-direction framing, and sit/stand transitions without operator intervention.

The imaging chain starts with a 1.0-type CMOS sensor and Canon's DIGIC DV6 processor, delivering 4K UHD at 30p and Full HD at 60p with low noise down to 1.5 lux minimum illumination. A 15x optical zoom (f/2.8–4.5, 35mm equivalent 25.5–382.5 mm) provides a 73° wide-angle field of view, and the built-in motorised ND filter (1/4, 1/16, 1/64) keeps exposure under control during daylight-lit events near windows or outdoor-facing stages. Dual Pixel CMOS autofocus responds quickly to face detection and subject tracking. With Canon Log 3 and Wide Dynamic Range gamma offering 13 stops of latitude, the CR-N500 integrates smoothly into multi-camera shoots alongside Cinema EOS cameras — colour matching between a C300 on the main stage and a CR-N500 on a wide shot becomes a straightforward grading task.

Three simultaneous output paths — 3G-SDI, full-size HDMI (4K 4:2:2 10-bit), and IP via NDI|HX2, SRT, RTSP/RTP, or RTMP/RTMPS — feed switchers, recorders, and streaming platforms at the same time. PoE+ over Gigabit Ethernet consolidates power, video, audio, tally, and control into a single cable run, which simplifies installation significantly in ceiling-mount scenarios. Balanced XLR inputs with 48V phantom power capture room audio, while genlock, RS-422, and Wi-Fi keep the camera synchronised and controllable within larger systems managed by Canon's RC-IP100 or RC-IP1000 hardware controllers.

Powerful 4K imagery
The 1.0-type CMOS Sensor and DIGIC DV6 processor work in unison to deliver exceptional 4K UHD/30p image quality as well as upscaled Full HD/60p images thanks to over sampled HD processing.

Smooth and precise control
The CR-N500 is equipped with a high-precision drive mechanism enabling fine adjustments of the Pan and Tilt movement and speed ensuring the perfect shot. Compatible with the RC-IP1000, the RC-SK5, the RC-IP100 controller and Remote Camera Control Application controllers, the CR-N500 is also compatible with selected third-party controllers.

Stabilised 15x Optical Zoom to get closer
Canon’s advanced 4K optics make sure greater detail is captured, and flexibility assured, with a 15x optical zoom (25.5-382.5mm 35mm equivalent), providing a wide angle to telephoto field of view. Canon’s advanced four-axis image stabilisation ensures high quality image capture.

IP Streaming and Control to transform your production
A comprehensive range of IP control and streaming protocols up to 4K UHD 30p (such as NDI|HX, RTMP, RTP/RTSP, RTMPS, SRT, FreeD and Canon’s XC Protocol) are included, making the CR-N500 an ideal solution for new or existing systems.

Excellent imagery in low light
The CR-N500 produces high quality imagery with low noise, even with a minimum illumination of 1.5 lux. The large 1.0-type CMOS sensor and the DIGIC DV6 processor ensure the image quality retains its integrity even in the most challenging of lighting conditions.

Dual Pixel CMOS AF keeps it sharp
The CR-N500 features Canon’s renowned Dual Pixel CMOS Auto Focus system which provides extremely quick and accurate focus via multiple modes.

Extensive Connectors for ease of use
The CR-N500 features a host of connections to ensure the ultimate flexibility, including a 3G-SDI video output, full-sized HDMI port (supporting 4K UHD 30p at 4:2:2 10-bit), professional XLR audio inputs, as well as a PoE+ LAN port to allow for easy system integration.

HDR Imagery, with versatile image quality adjustments
Achieve stunning HDR imagery with Canon Log 3 and Wide Dynamic Range Support. Both technologies ensure the best HDR imagery can be achieved for applications where postproduction or a quick turnaround is required. The in-built image adjustment settings also ensure flexible and bespoke imagery to colour match with other cameras.

Upgrade your content with a new firmware update available August 2025
Download the latest firmware and take advantage of newly added Auto Tracking App RA-AT001* features. Auto Framing features include Multi-Person Framing, that detects and includes multiple people in the frame, while Face Direction Framing and Sit/Stand Framing deliver natural composition for a single person in frame. Additionally, RTMP/SRT auto reconnection and improved camera control from the iOS app is now included.

*Free Auto Tracking App RA-AT001(Lite) available via FW, 1.1.0 or later. A paid license is necessary for full functionality of auto tracking.
