With the new XL Ultra, BirdDog has introduced a cinema-quality PTZ camera designed for high-end broadcasting, XR stages, virtual productions, and professional studio installations. At its core is a large-format 4/3-inch CMOS sensor paired with a 20x optical zoom (40x in HD) and HLD, OLPF, and ND filters. The camera delivers images with cinematic depth of field and exceptional sharpness, even in low-light conditions.

In addition to the main PTZ camera, the XL Ultra features an integrated 100° panoramic camera with a 1/1.8-inch sensor, larger than the primary sensor found in most PTZ cameras. Both cameras record in 4K60, can be controlled independently, and simultaneously output to separate sources.

Thanks to its advanced AI tracking engine, the XL Ultra adapts to any situation—from a CEO at the podium to an energetic guitarist on stage. The camera doesn’t just follow the subject; it behaves like a human camera operator. Its high-quality motors and advanced thermal design make the XL Ultra extremely precise and whisper-quiet, with no hum and no distractions.

The RGB display is fully customizable, while the side e-ink displays show the IP address, logo, or camera ID even when powered off. The rear display makes multi-camera setups easier to manage, ensuring clarity and control.

With 12G-SDI, 3G-SDI, HDMI, and optical 12G-SDI via SFP+, the XL Ultra integrates seamlessly into any setup. Balanced XLR connectors with phantom power, PoE++, and SFP are ideal for long cable runs. Its advanced processor supports rapid firmware updates. The XL Ultra streams simultaneously in NDI High Bandwidth and NDI HX3, offering maximum flexibility.

Genlock and timecode ensure perfect synchronization in multi-camera workflows. FreeD technology makes the XL Ultra ideal for AR/XR environments, while an integrated OLPF filter reduces moiré when shooting in front of high-resolution LED walls. An optional mounting system hides cables and fits trusses, tripods, ceilings, or studio installations.

The BirdDog XL Ultra is available in black and white.

With the new X4E Ultra PTZ camera, BirdDog has introduced a wired version of the X4 Ultra. It is specifically designed for studios, event venues, houses of worship, and large-scale installations where maximum reliability and image quality are essential.

The X4E Ultra fully leverages the high-performance DNA of the X4 Ultra. It features the same Sony sensor, the same image processing pipeline, and, of course, BirdDog’s renowned precision engineering. However, all components have been optimized for wired workflows. The X4E is designed for fixed installations and controlled network environments, where operational consistency is key.

The absence of Wi-Fi and an internal battery simplifies system integration for installers, while its more accessible price point facilitates multi-camera setups. At the same time, it retains the same professional flexibility, supporting SDI, HDMI, USB-C, as well as SRT, NDI, RTMP, and RTSP.

As a professional-grade tool, the X4E Ultra features what is arguably the most visible and effective tally system on the market. A bright frame surrounding the lens, clearly visible even in daylight, ensures that presenters and talent are always looking directly into the camera. This makes it easy for both the crew and on-screen subjects to know exactly which camera is live.

The AI control system of the X4E Ultra is intuitive, delivering reliable and consistent performance in every shot. As production demands grow, the AI capabilities expand and adapt, providing precise and automated PTZ camera control.

With NDI|HX3 integration, the X4E Ultra offers outstanding network performance, significantly reducing bandwidth usage while maintaining excellent image quality — making it ideal for an even wider range of production environments.

The always-on E-Ink label is a significant innovation. It allows users to easily identify each camera even when powered off, and displays network addresses for quick access to controls. In the near future, it will also support customizable logos, enhancing brand visibility in professional setups.

Through BirdUI, users have full access to all camera functions via an intuitive graphical interface — anywhere on the same network as the X4E Ultra. BirdUI also includes advanced features such as a camera monitoring dashboard and light/dark mode, adaptable to any production environment.

The BirdDog X4E Ultra is available in black and white finishes.

Key Features:

• X4E Ultra: an X4 without Wi-Fi or internal battery, yet with all the amazing features of the X4!
• Ideal for productions requiring maximum reliability
• X4 Ultra DNA optimized for wired workflows
• Intuitive AI control
• Outstanding network performance with NDI|HX3
• Always-on E-Ink label
• Full access – including remote control – to all functions via BirdUI
