1-Inch Sensor: Bigger Sensor, Better Image

Boasting the industry-leading Sony 1-inch large CMOS sensor, Explore revolutionizes image quality. This powerful sensor excels in low-light conditions, capturing stunning detail with minimal noise. Its superior light sensitivity, combined with an impressive depth of field, ensures sharp focus on subjects while beautifully blurring backgrounds. This makes it the versatile choice for broadcast professionals who demand the best, delivering cinematic quality in every shot.

PDAF

Experience the power of precise focusing with the industry-leading phase-detection autofocus (PDAF) ability. PDAF technology ensures rapid and accurate subject tracking, even in fast-paced environments. Capture stunningly sharp footage with minimal focus hunting, thanks to PDAF’s lightning-fast response times. Enjoy the freedom to concentrate on framing and composition while PDAF handles the intricate task of keeping your subjects in focus, delivering professional-grade results every time.

Built-in ND Filter for Light Management

Explore comes with a built-in variable ND filter, allowing adjustment of light transmission levels to 1.6%, 6.3%, 25%, and 100%. Users can also attach their own ND filter directly to the lens using reserved threads for precise control over lighting in various scenarios.

NDI® and NDI® HX Support

The Explore PTZ camera supports both NDI® and NDI®|HX, offering flexible, high-efficiency video streaming options. NDI® provides high-quality, low-latency video over IP networks, while NDI®|HX optimizes bandwidth usage for smoother performance in network-constrained environments. This dual support ensures robust and adaptable connectivity for diverse broadcasting needs.

High-Speed 12G-SDI for Professional 4K Video

The Explore PTZ camera features 12G-SDI, a high-speed video interface capable of transmitting 4K video at 60 frames per second over a single cable. This ensures uncompressed, high-quality video output with minimal latency, making it ideal for professional broadcasting and live event production. The 12G-SDI connection also supports longer cable runs without signal degradation, providing reliable performance in demanding environments.

Genlock Ensures Seamless Synchronization for Multi-Camera Productions

In multi-camera productions, Genlock (generator lock) ensures seamless switching and compositing of video sources. This synchronization technique provides a reference signal, typically from a dedicated generator or a master camera, guaranteeing all connected devices capture frames at precisely the same time. This prevents tearing and inconsistencies during video production and editing. The Explore SE features Genlock for superior synchronization, allowing it to function as the main camera and ensure precise video synchronization with sub-cameras in broadcasting and live streaming setups.

FreeD Integration Unlocks Immersive Virtual Productions

FreeD is a protocol that enables precise transmission of Pan, Tilt, Zoom, and Focus (PTZF) data directly from the camera to tracking system. Widely supported by most virtual set systems, FreeD makes virtual productions easier than ever. The Explore SE seamlessly integrates FreeD technology, empowering users to explore dynamic shooting angles and perspectives, ideal for versatile real-world and virtual-world applications. Explore’s broad compatibility with industry-leading virtual set systems like Brainstorm, Vizrt, Zero Density, Aximmetry, Unreal Engine, and VSet3D  ensures a smooth workflow for all your virtual production needs.

Robust Audio Capabilities

The Explore features 3.5mm line-in and Mini XLR with Phantom power, providing compatibility with various microphones and audio equipment.

Versatile Output Options

The Explore offers diverse output options, ensuring 4K60p output through NDI®, NDI®HX, 12G-SDI, HDMI, and SFP+. It provides great flexibility and compatibility to Telycam users.

Local Recording for Backup and Cloud Production

Explore empowers you with in-camera recording via a microSD card slot. Simply insert a Micro SD Card for local recording, providing instant backup during network issues, quick access for event review, and readily available files for upload to your preferred cloud platform. This versatile recording solution ensures peace of mind and streamlines your cloud production process.

Seamless Camera Setup with SSDP

Setting up your Telycam PTZ camera has never been easier, thanks to SSDP integration. This feature streamlines the process of finding your camera’s IP address, especially under multi-camera streaming, eliminating the need for complicated searches or additional tools. Simply connect your camera with an Ethernet cable, ensuring it’s on the same local network with your computer.

Dual Tally Lights for Effortless Production Cues

Explore features built-in dual tally lights, visible on both the front and back of the camera. These lights work seamlessly with NDI, Visca Serial, and Visca over IP protocols. With a simple glance, on-screen talent and crew can identify the currently live camera (“Program”) and the one lined up for the next transition (“Preview”). This intuitive system ensures clear communication, guaranteeing smooth video production.

Versatility with Cropping: One Camera, Two Shots

Explore empowers you to capture a full 4K60 scene while simultaneously generating a separate, zoomed-in 1080p or 720p video feed. This innovative feature is ideal for situations where you need both a wide shot and a close-up, maximizing the use of a single camera. The intuitive Telycam WebUI empowers you with effortless control over your composition. Simply customize the cropping position to perfectly tailor your shots and elevate your content creation.

Native AI-Based Auto-Tracking

The Explore features AI-based auto-tracking, automatically following subjects to enhance ease of use and capture the moments flawlessly.
