The software provides a 9x9 live view, control of up to 100 cameras, settings loading and configuration, and tally functions. An IR remote and an AC adapter are included.

1/2.3" CMOS Dual-Pixel Sensor

The Canon CR-N300 4K NDI PTZ Camera features a Canon 1/2.3" UHD 4K CMOS image sensor capable of UHD 4K video capture at 30p and up to 60p in Full HD, making the PTZ camera a strong contender for professional production.

Canon DIG!C DV6 Processor

The Canon CR-N300 4K NDI PTZ Camera incorporates Canon's DIG!C DV 6 Image Processor, which is essential in providing high image quality, advanced performance, and convenient operability. This advanced core technology component provides the image-processing power and speed that enables features such as 4K UHD video acquisition and precise Hybrid AF.

Hybrid AF

The Canon CR-N300 4K NDI PTZ Camera is equipped with "Hybrid AF", an auto-focus system that combines high-precision contrast AF technology and the high-speed, phase-difference AF technology to confirm auto focus from the camera. This hybrid auto focus system helps achieve auto focus faster and more reliably compared to contrast auto focus alone.

Canon 4K UHD Lens

The Canon CR-N300 4K NDI PTZ Camera features a 20x optical zoom lens and exhibits a wide viewing angle of 65.6 (horizontal) in 4K. At the wide end, the 29.3mm (35mm equivalent) lens is capable of capturing extensive scenes in tight shooting spaces such as indoor events for cinematic wide shots. The camera utilizes aspheric lens elements to achieve 4K image quality while minimizing various aberrations over the entire zoom range.

Over Sampling HD Processing

The full HD recording (over sampling HD processing) takes full advantage of the image information acquired by the 4K sensor to generate beautiful, high-definition full HD video. This helps content creators produce stunningly detailed FHD video when utilizing the Canon CR-N300 4K NDI PTZ Camera.

Smooth & Responsive Pan and Tilt Performance

The Canon CR-N300 4K NDI PTZ Camera is equipped with the PT drive mechanism that can change the pan/tilt speed in incremental steps. This allows the operator to set the speeds to desired preference to allow for smooth PT movement. The Canon CR-N300 4K NDI PTZ Camera exhibits a variable pan speed of 0.2 to 300/second and variable tilt speed of 0.2 to 170/second.

Four Scene Modes for Impressive Video
