We purchased 3 of these for our church, all configured with static IP and they are working flawlessly on NDI!

This is an excellent PTZ camera. The camera immediately connected to my Elgato HD60 Pro HDMI capture card like it was Plug n Play. But there are two things you should know: 1. The manual provided with the camera is the typical 2nd year English student translation from Chinese to English. It is of limited value. Since the camera is essentially a direct clone of the PTZ Optics models PT30X-SDI-GY-G2 and PT30X-SDI-WH-G2 cameras, just go to the PTZ Optics web site and download the manual for these cameras. You will learn much more about the installation and setup process than you will ever learn with the manual that comes with the AVKANS camera. 2. The IR remote control only works if you point it at the FRONT of the camera. Since many users will be located at a position behind the camera you must do this: Buy an IR Extender cable (Amazon Cable Matters Infrared Remote Extender Cable, IR Repeater Cable - 25 Feet, or 10 Feet - whatever you need) so that the camera can be positioned with the front facing front. The IR Extender can then be installed to deliver the IR signal from the remote control to the front of the camera, and it will work fine. People controlling the camera with a serial joystick or an IP connection will not have to worry about this. I highly recommend this camera.

We already had a couple AVKANs cameras and opted to put additional cameras in our auditorium. The new cameras came with NDI built in which is a great upgrade from our original cameras. Now were in the process of obtaining the NDI licenses for our existing cameras so we can use those tools to control.

Excellent product support! Using camera for House of worship streaming.

I bought this camera for church install. Their budget was tight, but this fit the build. They needed something thar could operate remote, and carry the audio with the HDMI signal to another building. There was one setting on the camera I couldnt figure out how to change and the support was great. Make sure if you want that setup to switch dvi to HDMI in the menu settings. Thanks and I would buy again.

Good Morning, I truly loved the professional assistance offered by David in setting up our new purchased camera. The response was efficient, and displayed great patience and poise as he answered every question Ive asked. You would do well to retain David as one of your team members. This camera is used for live streaming of our church services, and I certainly would recommend it for anyone that is seek to improve their video presentation.

Great items

This camera setup very easily within a couple minutes and the picture is wonderful in HD 1920x1080. I had a custom wood housing built for it and secured it with a screw fastener purchased from ACE for $5. This is the second PTZ camera in our church setup and it is controllable with the identical remote control of our other camera. It is an easy setup when using the included remote. I use an HDMI wireless zero latency transmitter that works perfectly to eliminate wires. The HDMI system was $250 but works perfectly with no lag. Altogether the camera and transmitter were less than $1000 and work just PTZ Optics. Awesome value. Streamed our Sunday service the next day and the camera team LOVES it. Our 2-camera PTZ system works awesome.

The best PTZ camera, It helps me a lot in projects with little staff, very good customer service, i am very happy with the purchase. I recommend it!!!!

We purchased both the 20x and 30x cameras for use in our church. Their performance have been rock solid for several months. Picture clarity and color have been a big step up for our livestream services. There are plenty of features via the remote control, including image flip, zoom speeds and up to 10 preset frames. You can control up to 4 separate cameras with the same remote control. We had been planning on purchasing a separate PTZ controller, but the remote works so well that we see no reason to expend the time and money for another device and cabling. Remember to use the remote control from the front quadrant to get clear reception. We may purchase another camera to fill out our coverage. Overall a great value for a great camera!
