BirdDog X4 Ultra Black

The BirdDog X4 Ultra is a professional 4K PTZ camera with NDI|HX3, AI tracking, and wireless operation. With built‑in battery and Wi‑Fi 6, it delivers maximum flexibility for both mobile and fixed production environments.

The BirdDog X4 Ultra is a next-generation PTZ camera designed for modern hybrid workflows. It combines traditional broadcast capabilities with advanced features such as wireless operation, AI automation, and IP-based video integration.

One of its standout features is true wireless operation. Thanks to a built-in battery and Wi‑Fi 6 connectivity, the camera can be used without physical cables, allowing complete freedom in camera placement.

The camera features a Sony 1/1.8" CMOS sensor, delivering sharp images up to 4K UHD at 60 fps, along with a 20x optical zoom for flexible framing.

NDI|HX3 support ensures high-quality, low-latency streaming with reduced bandwidth usage, while additional protocols such as SRT, RTMP, and RTSP provide versatility across production environments.

The camera includes multiple outputs (SDI, HDMI, USB, IP), making it suitable for both traditional broadcast setups and modern IP workflows.

Advanced AI tracking and auto-framing enhance efficiency by automating camera movement, while the HALO tally system provides clear visual feedback during live productions.

An integrated E‑Ink display allows instant identification by showing camera information even when powered off.
