BirdDog A300 IP67 Extreme Weatherproof 30x Full NDI PTZ Camera, White Gen 2

Designed for fixed outdoor installations such as sports, the IP67 rating and the Wind Load Durability rating equal to that of a category 4 Hurricane, which means A300 can wIt'stand pretty much any weather conditions. By teaming up BirdDog’s custom NDI silicon chip, a Sony CMOS backlIt'sensor, and a true Sony Image module A300 has lightning auto focus, incredibly sharp images, and insanely fast zoom. A300 has frame rates up to 1080p60, 30x optical zoom, and outputs SDI and Full NDI simultaneously.

New Colour Matrix. Just like Color but Australian.
Dialling in your cameras just levelled up. A300 now has a full colour matrix with individual saturation and hue control over Red, Green, Blue, Cyan, Yellow and Magenta, all with 64 levels of control.

72 levels of Gamma.
From negative to positive gamma positions you can now dial in those blacks with an unprecedented level of control.

FREE Cam Control. Colour match in seconds.
The Cam Control app is the easiest and most user-friendly way to dial in BirdDog cameras. Simply load on a Windows 10 machine on the same network as your BirdDog cameras and access all functions of the camera through a beautiful interface.

Full NDI. No compromises.
In the world of NDI there are two flavours, NDI and NDI|HX. NDI is a variable bit rate, I-Frame codec that is reaches around 140Mbits at 1080p60 and is visually lossless. NDI|HX is a compressed, long-GOP, H.264 variant that reaches around 12Mbits at 1080p60. A300 only Encodes and Decodes Full YUV422 NDI.

Sony Sensor. You deserve the best.
The best pictures come from the best silicon. A300 is teams up a world class Sony CMOS BacklIt'sensor with the BirdDog custom NDI chip to form a match made in silicon heaven. Your productions deserve the best.

Sony Image Module. Optics done right.

All weather. Keep your NDI dry.
With an IP67 rating A300 is perfect for fixed installations in outdoor and indoor environments. The nitrogen filled housing ensures no fog, and the external housing has been treated for corrosion resistance against salt spray. With -40°C to +60°C operating temperature rating A300 has been designed to wIt'stand the most extreme elements on earth.
