Canon CR-X500 4K PTZ Camera with 15x Optical Zoom - White

The Canon CR-X500 4K PTZ Camera with 15x Optical Zoom is the ideal pan tilt camera for those attempting to capture high quality outdoor shots remotely. The Canon CR-X500 eliminates the need for a larger camera crew, and is incredibly easy to use. Aside from remarkable outdoor performance, the Canon CR-X500 PTZ Camera is also perfect for live streaming, reality television, worship broadcasting, and special events.

1.0 Type CMOS Sensor

The CR-X500 features a Canon 1.0-inch 4K CMOS image sensor capable of 4K UHD video capture at 60P, making it a versatile addition to any 4K workflow. The CR-X500’s 1.0-inch sensor allows for larger photosites compared to smaller-sized sensors, resulting in improved images with less noise in low-light situations. The larger sensor also exhibits a shallower depth of field at large apertures, providing greater depth of field control and more creative options. The CR-X500’s Dual DIGIC DV 6 Imaging Processors further drives the high sensitivity and low noise performance of the camera.

Dual DIGIC DV 6 Image Processor

The CR-X500 PTZ camera incorporates dual Canon DIGIC DV 6 Image Processors, which are essential in providing high-quality imagery, 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, precise Dual Pixel CMOS AF and Advanced Zoom function.

Dual Pixel CMOS AF

Dual Pixel CMOS AF is Canon’s breakthrough AF technology that uses a CMOS sensor with a structure that combines imaging and phase-difference AF functions. The Dual Pixel CMOS AF determines the focusing position by the phase difference, which drives the focusing lens smoothly and enables quick focusing. The AF tracking capability is effective even during zooming, panning or tilting. On the other hand, with conventional contrast AF method, used by other cameras, the focusing position is determined by the contrast (difference of brightness). Therefore, the focusing lens may move slightly back and forth around the focusing position, which could cause delay when focusing.

4K 59.94P 4:2:2 10-bit Output

The CR-X500 supports 4K 59.94P 4:2:2 10-bit Output for natural and realistic 4K video.

15x Zoom Range 25.5mm-382.5mm (35mm equiv.)

The CR-X500 features a 15x Optical 4K UHD Zoom lens with a 35mm equivalent range for 25.5mm – 382.5mm. This zoom range helps to capture wide angle environment shots to telephoto detail subject shots. The lens group zoom system makes the 4K UHD lens compact and slim while providing support for the CMOS sensor. Aspheric lens elements are utilized to achieve 4K image quality while correcting various aberrations over the entire zoom range.

30x Zoom in HD using Advanced Zoom

Users can get up to 30x Advanced Zoom when shooting in Full HD, which utilizes the CR-X500's full 4K UHD sensor to extend the zoom range while maintaining image quality.

Image Stabilization

The lens structure of the CR-X500 enables real-time responsiveness in a three-dimensional space, allowing the optical image stabilization Canon lenses are known for.

3-axis PTZ Simultaneous Movement

The CR-X500 can smoothly Pan, Tilt and Zoom simultaneously to quickly and easily move from one shot to the next.

Wide Pan-Tilt Coverage

The CR-X500 is equipped with a Pan & Tilt drive mechanism supporting a range of ±170° Pan, -50° ~ 30° Tilt. Furthermore, the CR-X500 exhibits a variable Pan speed of 0.5° - 25°/second and Tilt speed of 0.3° - 20°/second.
