Camera Telycam Explore 500 4/3" Sensor 4K PTZ Camera for Premium Broadcast Production

High-Performance Sensor and Image Processor

The Explore 500 features a high-performance 4/3” Sony sensor that delivers exceptional image depth, cinematic shallow depth of field, and precise color reproduction for professional broadcast applications.

Fast Hybrid Auto-Focus

The Explore 500 combines Phase Detection Auto Focus (PDAF) and Contrast Detection Auto Focus (CDAF) technologies to deliver fast, accurate, and stable focusing performance. PDAF enables rapid subject acquisition and responsive tracking, while CDAF provides precise focus refinement for enhanced image sharpness. Together, these technologies ensure reliable focus performance even in dynamic production environments and challenging lighting conditions.

Optical Low-Pass Filter (OLPF)

Integrated OLPF technology minimizes moiré and aliasing artifacts when shooting against LED walls, display panels, and fine-pattern backgrounds, making the Explore 500 ideal for modern AV and virtual

DC Brushless PTZ Motor System with Preset Sync

The Explore 500 features a precision DC brushless PTZ motor system with synchronized Pan, Tilt, and Zoom control during preset recall, ensuring smooth movement between preset positions.
With stable torque across the full speed range, the system delivers especially smooth and precise low-speed operation, reducing jitter and abrupt transitions while eliminating robotic motion commonly found in conventional PTZ cameras for natural broadcast-grade performance.

Versatile Output Options

The Explore 500 offers diverse output options, including 4K60p resolution through NDI®, NDI®HX3, 12G-SDI, HDMI, and SFP+ connections. Users can choose the output method that best suits their production needs, ensuring flexibility and compatibility.

Genlock Functionality

The Explore features Genlock, a valuable synchronization feature, which makes it to function as a primary camera, ensuring precise video synchronization with other sub-cameras in complex broadcast video production and live streaming setups.

Robust Audio Capabilities

The Explore 500 features with a stereo 3.5mm line-in input and a Mini XLR audio input. Moreover, the XLR input supports phantom power, providing compatibility with a wide range of microphones and audio equipment.

Touch-Friendly Web UI

The newly designed, touch-friendly web UI offers intuitive on-screen PTZ control and is fully optimized for tablets and smartphones. Operators can reposition the camera, adjust focus or instantly switch tracking subjects directly from the live feed with a single tap, ensuring fast, precise, and flexible control across both studio and field environments.

Native AI-Based Auto-Tracking & Auto-framing

The Explore 500 incorporates native AI-based auto-tracking and auto-framing technology, this intelligent feature automatically follows subjects, enhancing ease of use and ensuring that important moments are captured flawlessly.

Free D Technology Integration

The Explore 500 seamlessly integrates FreeD technology, empowering users to explore dynamic shooting angles and perspectives, making it ideal for versatile real-world and virtual-world applications.

MicroSD Card Slots

MicroSD card slots—one for firmware upgrades and the other for local recording. Record directly onto the camera for instant backup during network issues or quick access, ideal for prompt event review.
