[Fixed f1.0] We use this in a drum booth for livestreaming in our all-NDI workflow. The image is great, the field of view is perfectly suited for getting an engaging shot in a drum kit setup. The NDI (while HX variety) has been rocksolid and not a single drop in months of using it every single week. We'll be buying some more to use on our keys and floating around to other unique views on our stage. Love the POE support. Data+power all over a single cable.

[12.3 MP] This camera is cutting edge utilizing all the latest protocols and will be relevant well into the future. We are installing 5 of these for a REMI production at a local music venue. We are also using the JVC joystick to control these over the Internet.

[50 dB] We use this in a church sanctuary to control three PTZ cameras. Previously, we had PTZ's IP SuperController, which was frankly, a pretty bad experience. We took a chance one this newer iteration and we love it. Solidly built, responds well, controls what we need and most importantly has not once had to reboot itself at the slightest static shock.

[2x] Purchased this to replace my normal Sony A7 IV/Kiloview U40 NDI encoder rig, while I travel. Wanted something a bit lighter, smaller, and with integrated NDI.


Literally plugged in a PoE+ port from my switch, attached a cheap Sigma 30 1.4 lens, and in under 1 minutes, had a pretty decent NDI HX/3, H.265 4k/30 available in vMix and NDI Tools Studio Monitor. Tweaked it a bit using manual focus, some sharpness, aperture (2.8 best), and 4k/59.94, all set to highest settings. I am used to full NDI, but this new codec HX3, is fantastic. Light network load, minimal difference in latency. Well worth it!


Will be traveling with a laptop, a tiny 2.5 GbE switch, a PoE injector, and this is much safer and easier than bringing my main gear. If I get robbed, better to lose $1300 than $5000! I honestly find the on-screen levels of detail and color accuracy almost as good as my full frame, doing the same thing! Money well spent!


The menu system is actually quite good. I had heard it was complex, and yes, some of the sub-settings take some finding, but once you do it a few times, actually better than Sony's, not as good as Panasonic! Highly recommended!

[Fixed f1.0] We are using these AIDA cameras as an NDI source in a live theater setting, to live-stream shows. The image quality is extremely good, the internal web-server for configuration is easy to use, and being able to simply plug these into any power-over-ethernet port around the theater and have it up and running at a new location is a game-changer. Amazing quality and usability at a relatively low price.

[1/2.3" CMOS] The camera is doing a great job with live-streaming our church service. We did have to down scale it for our provider but in time technology will improve in their end. The camera does not have any image stabilization so if you are zoomed in over a long range someone walking by will create a slight tremble in the image if you don’t have it mounted on something to absorb the shock. We are covering a distance of about 65 feet and it produces a great image for us.

[DVIP over RJ45] The PTZ Optics super joy controller arrived faster than expected. It was easy to set up and we have been using it in our church for the last couple of weeks. Ease of use is great as we have multiple people learning how to operate it.

[9 W] I own 5 Z-Cam E2C's for my podcast/livestream studio. The only gripe I ever had was that the E2C needed the Stream Converter app to output NDI. Now with the E2N, it's native. This was a game changer for me. I wish I could trade in all my E2C's for the E2N. Plus there is a multicam function for syncing that I really want to play with. Small and powerful. I've been a happy Z-Cam owner since 2019. I've gotten many compliments on the quality of my video podcasts and much of that is thanks to Z-Cam.

[RTMP(s), SRT] I use this controller for up to three PTZ 30x cameras, via PoE Ethernet. Nearly every feature of the camera is accessible through this controller. Besides pan, tilt and zoom, I regularly use manual exposure control, and up to 10 preset positions for each camera. A particularly nice feature is the ability to attach an HDMI monitor to view the currently selected camera via Ethernet RTSP. You set the speed one notch below that of your HDMI or SDI video. This is an essential feature when working with software (e.g., WireCast) or hardware (e.g., SlingStudio) which has a significant lag time. The monitor lag is only a few frames, which is easy to accommodate. I ultimately bought two Superjoy controllers, because I rely on it for nearly every job.

[9 W] We've only had it a couple of weeks, but this is a great unit. It is solidly built and easy to program / set up. It's heavy enough to not worry about it sliding on the table top. I really love the POE feature so there's no need for extra power cable -- this helps to reduce clutter on the desktop. The Joystick responds well and is easy to use.


I do with all the buttons lit up, or perhaps light up a second or two when pressed (as a visual feedback). My other wish is that it had feet or a stand that could make it angle a little more. But these wish-list items do not discount my 5-star rating.


Overall, this is a great unit. I would definitely purchase this one again.
