Brand New 4K Auto Tracking PTZ Camera
Live productions depend on high performance cameras and camera controllers. Datavideo is introducing the 4K50/60p auto tracking PTZ camera, PTC-285 can be easily controlled via traditional RS-422 serial port, or IP remote control via DVIP (Datavideo proprietary protocol) or Sony VISCA over IP. This brand new 4K camera series supports dual streaming output for A/V market application. You can easily stream to Facebook (RTMPS), YouTube and dvCloud.

Simultaneous Outputs
Connect your PTC-285 to multiple devices in your workflow for flexibility. All the outputs are active at the same time.

Quick Access to Camera's Auto Tracking
You will be allowed direct access to auto tracking via various external controllers such as the supplied RMC-1 remote control and DVIP controllers (RMC-300A, RMC-180 MARK II and PTC View Assist).

In addition to camera controllers, you can also easily enable auto tracking on smart switchers which include KMU-200, SHOWCAST 100, etc as well as complete solution systems like ZR-1 Hybrid Video Production Solution.

Custom Auto Object Tracking
If you are filming multiple people, you can designate a person for auto tracking. Once linked to the camera, only the designated person will be tracked, avoiding interferences such as the desks, people coming back and forth, large objects, etc.

Smart PTZ Speed Adaptation
The integrated PID algorithm is able to detect the movement speed of the identified object and automatically adjust the camera's corresponding pan, tilt and zoom speeds in such a way that the lens movement will be smooth, avoiding common camera lens movement problems like jerky movements or unpredicted halts.

Quick Access to Framing Options
All of the PTC-285 camera series include RMC-1 controller. User can quickly select full-body, half-body and close up framing, making it easy to change the shooting scene and framing requirements.

Simply Enable Auto Tracking with Your IR Remote Control
RMC-1 PTZ Controller. All you need is a remote control to set and control all four cameras and save the four presets.

PTZ View Assist: Control up to 4 Cameras
The camera control app is tailored for the Datavideo PTZ camera series. It can monitor the live streaming video from PTC-140, PTC-280, PTC-285, PTC-300 and PTC-305 series. The app can control up to 4 cameras simultaneously via DVIP, you can intuitively set up and recall the presets, and adjust white balance, focus and IRIS.

The app is able to decode the live streaming via RTSP and  SRT. Easily monitor the live streaming video and set up the parameters promptly in one application. Datavideo provides iOS and Android versions, which you can download on Google Play and App Store for free!

Low Noise in Low Light
Advanced 3D noise reduction technology is also used to further reduce the noise while ensuring image sharpness.

Multiple Simultaneous Video Outputs
Supports simultaneous HDMI 2.0 and IP output up to 2160p 50/60 and also 3G-SDI output up to 1080p60/50.

Multiple Network Protocol with Dual Stream Function

Compatible with Various Controller
Control real-time pan, tilt, and zoom camera movements with Datavideo Showcast 100, PTZ View Assist APP, RMC-300A and RMC-180. With configurable preset positions supported.

RS-422, DVIP and Ethernet Camera Control
RS-422 and ethernet to use DVIP or VISCA over IP commands to integrate with larger control systems.

Compliant with the ONVIF Profile S Standard
The PTC-285 series cameras are compliant with the ONVIF Profile S standard, ensuring seamless integration and interoperability in network video systems.

Power over Ethernet
The PTC-285 supports PoE for easy installation. No need to find local power outlets or hire an electrician to install outlets wherever you want to mount your camera. Simply run a single CAT6 cable to power your PTC-285.

Tally Light
Green and red lights tally to show the preview and program status for broadcast applications.

Wide 80° Field of View
PTC-285 provides a wide Field of View of 80°, easily shooting all the scenes in the field.

Supports H.264/H.265 Video Compression
Support compression of resolution up to 3840x2160 with frame up to 59.94, 60fps and the second channel 720x480 with 29.97fps compression. AAC, MP3 and PCM audio compression also supported.

Dark or Light Body
The PTC-285 is available in dark gray or white to remain inconspicuous in permanent setups.

Build a Reliable SRT Live Streaming Workflow with All Datavideo Products
Datavideo's wide range of encoders, cameras, and hand-carry switchers are fully supported by SRT and dvCloud. Datavideo encoders and dvCloud provide reliable streams over unreliable networks.

By using a Datavideo encoder and dvCloud together, you can utilize SRT (instead of RTMP) on the initial problematic connection or "First Mile." After your video stream reaches dvCloud, you can depend on dvCloud's reliable, high-bandwidth network to deliver the stream to your favorite destinations, like Facebook and YouTube.
