Was having issues after a firmware upgrade and it said zoom focus error they was able to fix it and also helped me set ip NDI couldn’t ask for better help from them great choice to go with Avkans!

What a fantastic little camera for streaming video! Setup is easy and intuitive, and it has all of the features and options youll need. We use it as the main streaming camera for our church worship services, and the 30x optical zoom is awesome for framing the stage without losing any video quality! Our customer service agent was Jenny, and she was fantastic at helping us get exactly what we needed and making sure that it functioned properly. Even when our first camera had a firmware error, the replacement process was quick and easy. Great customer service! Thanks Jenny!

Like other reviews, Ive been shopping for a PTZ camera to use with OBS to livestream our Churchs Worship services. Weve been using three static USB cameras purchased last spring when lockdowns first went into effect. One of the key features ive been looking for is NDI so we can use existing ethernet wiring and not have to invest in SDI cabling and computer inputs to get signals into OBS. I found that PTZ Optics NDI PTZ cameras seemed to be the gold standard, but couldnt justify the price in our small church. While watching many YouTube videos on PTZ cameras and OBS, i stumbled upon a review for this camera, and after a bit more research decided to pull the trigger on it. As other reviewers have noted, i believe this is a PTZ Optics camera in disguise... probably production overrun thats rebadged, but same camera, and thats a good thing! Image quality is excellent, and the camera operates silently while moving and changing views. Ive only used it connected via POE and NDI, and its great to only have one cable to route and connect for everything. Ive been using the open-source PTZ Optics control plug-in for OBS for controlling the camera from within OBS and it works great! Overall, i am considering this a great find! The only area for improvement for this camera would be that the included manual is lacking in detail and clarity, but since this is effectivley a PTZ Optics camera, there are lots of resources on YouTube and OBS forums for guidance and tutorials. In addition, ive received great support from Jenny at the [email protected] support email. Jenny has responded to my questions quickly each time, including sending me a document with all the HTTPS/CGI-BIN commands that this camera is capable of using for scripting control commands. This command capability gives a whole other level of control possibilities and im excited to learn to use them. If youre on the fence about this camera, just go ahead and order it and you will not be disappointed.

This PTZ camera has awesome quality in bright and low light. Live streaming church services. The church members are excited to watch the church services on YouTube and Facebook. Tech support (Jenny) is great.

The Camera gives a solid performance. We use RTMP to stream to Facebook or YouTube but we also tested the NDI and had no trouble seeing the stream. Jenny was great at helping me get setup correctly. I would buy this camera again.

Like the delivery, it was on time as promised. The picture quality is great and the customer service responded to any questions I have. I am thinking to purchase one more for tracking.

I have had the Avkans 30X NDI PTZ camera for two weeks. I have put it through its paces to see how well it preforms. I used differant control proticols, differant lighting situations with strong to low light. I tested its speed and accuracy with presets. I tested its ability to adjust white balance correctly and it out preformed all other PTZ cameras in the 1080p class that I use at my church. I have been using five PTZ cameras over the past six years and the Avkans PTZ camera works flawlessly. Picture quality with its color and image sharpness puts my other cameras to shame. This PTZ camera is identical to the PTZoptics camera accept for one thing...the price! It uses the same 1/2.7 Panasonic CMOS image sensor as the PTZoptics camera. I will be replacing all of my old PTZ cameras soon with this 30x zoom NDI PTZ camera from Avkans. Its great to be able to connect a single Cat5e or Cat6 cable to this camera for power, control, and video. The NDI compressed video over our network works perfect with our NewTek TriCaster. This camera has a lot of differant ways to connect to other equipment with 3G SDI, HDMI, NDI over IP. I also use a Black Magic ATEM mini extreme ISO in our livestream setup. The Avkans camera simultaneously sends video to both the TriCaster and ATEM with no problems. You can mount this camera on a tripod, wall or ceiling, just flip the image in settings. In the photo the Avkans PTZ 30x NDI camera is on the right. The Avkans camera has no problem adjusting white balance and reproducing color and has a sharper image than the camera on the left. Both cameras are 1080p and have the same size image sensor. This Avkans camera is amazing and I am very impressed with its quality and preformance.

Love the camera. Image is clear and bright. Auto focus is great. User-defined camera position presets are a big help. Very responsive technical support. We had a problem with the camera that could not be solved remotely. AVKANS replaced the camera and we’re back in business. Best tech support I have seen from a tech related company!

I bought the 30X NDI April 2021 after hearing about it on a Facebook group discussion. Liked the camera so much I bought a second this year. Tech support is excellent, never had trouble with either camera but did have pre-purchase questions. Also general operating questions and assistance with firmware upgrade. Tech support is quick to respond and very helpful. Considering purchasing one of the 4k ptz too.

The best PTZ camera, It helps me a lot in projects with little staff, very good customer service, i am very happy with the purchase. I recommend it!!!!
