The black Panasonic AW-HE40SK PTZ Camera HD-SDI Output Blackfeatures a 1/2.3" MOS sensor. When connected to the Internet, this IP camera allows you to control PTZ actions and monitor the surveillance area from a remote location via a Web browser. This provides you with several advantages like reduced integration costs, easy remote production and engineering, and lower cost for multiple location systems.

Equipped with a 4.3 to 129mm zoom lens (35mm equivalent is 31.6 to 962mm) with 30x optical zoom and 16x digital zoom, and a 1.4x digital extender, this PTZ camera enables you to zoom in on activity in the monitoring area for a closer look. The Dynamic Range Stretch (DRS) minimizes blocked shadows and blown highlights. When it gets too dark to record normal footage, this Full HD PTZ camera uses Night Mode to capture clear images in monochrome. The camera supports audio input, allowing you to capture and embed audio within the video signal. It is PoE+ compatible, allowing you to power the unit using only a single LAN cable.

Highly accurate pan-tilt head offers precise, fast, and fluid movement in all directions, enabling the capture of both slow- and fast-moving objects without excessive vibration and bounce

Freeze During Preset function may be enabled to freeze the video during preset playback. The immediately preceding still image is output during preset movements, so that the swiveling movement is not displayed.

Dynamic Range Stretch (DRS) for minimizing over exposure in highlights and detail blocking in dark areas. The AW-HE40SK is equipped with High Dynamic Range (HDR) mode. When shooting and synthesizing two images with differing exposure times, the AW-HE40SK can create video with high visibility that corrects for halation and black defects, even under backlit conditions

Hybrid 2D/3D Digital Noise Reduction (Hybrid DNR) allows clear image capture with minimum after images, even in dimly lit areas

Switching to Night Mode makes shooting possible, even in low-light conditions. The AW-HE40SK can also be set to switch to the mode automatically, depending on surrounding light levels.

The AW-HE40SK also supports audio input, embedding and encoding. The input from the camera's switchable mic/line input can be combined with the HD-SDI, HDMI, and streaming outputs for mixing, recording or transmission.

Pan/tilt speed adjustment from 2 to 4 steps

• Preset memory up to 100 positions.
• Functions such as freeze during preset, digital extender zoom, and color temperature settings can be assigned to the user buttons on optional Panasonic controllers.
• Equipped with RS-422 remote terminal; up to five units can be controlled via serial control from a controller.
• Equipped with RS-232C remote terminal (standard serial communication support). Up to seven units can be controlled via daisy chain connection.
• Up to four units can be operated with a wireless remote controller (AW-RM50G sold separately).

Serial (RS-422), IP, and IR remote control capabilities

100 preset memories for rapid and precise remote recall

By connecting network devices that support the IEEE802.3at PoE+ standard, power can be supplied via LAN cable. This can lower installation costs since it is not necessary to install a power supply or even a local AC outlet.

Can be placed on the desktop as a standalone unit or suspended from the ceiling

Compatible with Android and iOS devices

Q: 3. WARRANTY?

A: The Panasonic AW-HE40SK PTZ Camera comes with a Panasonic USA Limited 1-Year Warranty against workmanship and defects.

Q: 4. I need the software AW-SFU01G for the camera, where can i find it ?

A: Panasonic website, its all there

Q: 5. Does this camera have on board recording to SD card and the network downloading feature like the UE70?

A: No, this camera doesn't have onboard recording.

Q: 6. Ned to know the focal length, it says "Focal Length 8.8 to 176mm" and also says "35mm Equivalent Focal Length 24.5 to 490mm" so if I need to consider the true focal length for this cam which one should I go with?

A: The physical focal length of the lens is 8.8 to 176mm. However this camera has a 1" sensor which gives the lens an equivalent focal length of 24.5 to 490mm, which would tend to be the measurement people go by.

Q: 7. Does this camera has lens accessories, like 2x extenders and etc?

A: We are not aware of wide angle and telephoto lens adapters for this camera. They tend not to be offered for PTZ cameras.

Q: 8. How does one compensate for the changing aperture at different focal lengths? I'm assuming the only way to do it is to have it auto-expose and gain up when you zoom in. Is the gain clean?

A: We have not had a problem with relying on the auto-iris at different focal lengths. We usually us it that way as we have a variety of system operators, but have not seen any reason to tweak the gain.

Q: 9. Is there a mounting mechanism on the bottom to mount to a 1/4 or 3/8 tripod mount?

A: From the person who is using this:Yes, there is a tripod mount screw on the bottom, not sure about the size

Q: 10. Is there a wall mount bracket for this camera?

A: Panasonic does not offer a wall mount for it. They have a ceiling mount only. For wall mounting it is recommended to sit it on a shelf.
