The BirdDog P4K 3-Camera and Keyboard Kit consists of three BirdDog P4K UHD 4K PTZ Camera and a BirdDog PTZ Keyboard for control of those cameras. Key features include:
Sony 1" backlit Exmor R CMOS sensor with 14.2 MP
12x optical zoom with a 9.3 to 111.6mm focal length
Simultaneous full NDI, SDI, & HDMI outputs
Maximum UHD 4K/30p resolution via full NDI streaming
Full-NDI 4K PTZ Camera. The BirdDog P4K UHD 4K PTZ Camera is a remote controlled PTZ camera that uses the NewTek NDI protocol for variable bitrate video over IP. Resolutions up to 3840 × 2160 are possible at 30 fps. For imaging, the P4K uses a 14.2 MP, 1", Sony backlit CMOS sensor.
Control & Switching Options. NDI cameras can be controlled with a variety of software and hardware. We recommend NewTek’s NDI Tools as a starting point for free, software-based NDI control. Hardware control is possible with the BirdDog PTZ Keyboard. Please contact us for any hardware or software compatibility concerns. Please note, the PTZ keyboard will need to be updated to v4.5.203-LTS to work with this camera, and the P4K will need to be updated to v4.5.206-LTS, but all copies will be fully updated before shipment.
Integrated 12x Zoom Lens. The Bird Dog P4K features a 12x optical zoom lens that will reach from 9.3 to 111.6mm. The lens can be moved at up to 100°/s with a 350° pan and -30 to 90° tilt range.
Power Over Ethernet. This camera is capable of utilizing PoE from compatible network switches, but can also be powered by the included AC adapter.
Inputs & Outputs. The camera uses an RJ45 ethernet port for NDI, but also features simultaneous video output via SDI and HDMI. Audio input and output is available with two 1/8" (3.5mm) ports.
Tactile PTZ Control. Moving on to controlling these cameras, the BirdDog PTZ Keyboard is a solution for moving PTZ camera control off of a screen and into your hands and is compatible with BirdDog NDI cameras such as the P120, P110, and the P200. You’ll get finer control and a faster workflow with a joystick and zoom rocker switch. The keyboard also has dedicated exposure, white balance, and focus knobs.
NDI & Much More. This BirdDog controller is compatible with cameras using NDI, NDI|HX, Visca over IP, RS-422, and RS-232 protocols. When using NDI, users can take advantage of audio intercom support using BirdDog Comms.
Power Trip. This keyboard can be powered via Power over Ethernet (PoE), the serial port, or with the included AC adapter.
All of our BirdDog cameras ship configured for DHCP, with the default web browser ID printed on the bottom of the camera so all you need to do is enter the web address in a browser window to get started. Once you access the web remote, you will need to enter the default password: birddog, one word, lowercase.
Please note that because we make every effort to ensure this camera ships in the simplest, default state, you may be subject to a camera ID recovery fee if you return the camera with a unique web ID.
You can adjust the resolution and frame rate through the WebUI and the IR remote. The dial has been phased out in recent firmware updates and can no longer be used to make adjustments.
We do not include the remote control with this rental but can send it if requested in the “special instructions” box at checkout.
