Frequently asked questions
Which Panasonic PTZ camera is best for a city council chamber or hearing room?
For most chambers and hearing rooms the AW-UE150A or AW-UE100 is a strong fit: 4K, 12G-SDI and IP outputs (NDI and SRT), presets and auto-tracking, controlled from an AW-RP150 or AW-RP60.

Choose a model with an optical low-pass filter to reduce moiré, such as the AW-UE160 or AW-UE150A, or the new global-shutter AW-UE200 series, which Panasonic says delivers low-flicker images for LED wall studios. The Arizona House of Representatives studio uses Panasonic AW-UE160 cameras in front of an LED wall.
