BirdDog BDP400B Eyes P400 8.5 Megapixel HD Network Camera - Black
Stunning 4K NDI® with incredible colour tools.
P400 features stunning 4K resolution NDI and allows chroma subsampling in your choice of 4:2:0 or 4:2:2.
Wow.
P400 teams up BirdDog's custom NDI® silicon chip, a 4K Sony CMOS Backlit sensor, and a true Sony Image Module.
Double Wow.
P400 includes professional-level colour tools including Colour Matrix control, Black level, Gamma including 512 pre-set gamma positions.
Triple Wow.
New Codec Engine.
A totally rebuilt codec engine brings even lower latency to the P400 and P4K and computationally higher picture quality. Better pictures, less bandwidth, faster.
Tighter Cam Control Integration.
Cam Control 2.0 has been updated to include all the features found in the OSD of P400 and P4K so you can now remotely shade the cameras from the beautiful Cam Control interface..
4:2:2 4K. Numbers matter.
P400 debuts the world's first 4K NDI with chroma subsampling at 4:2:2 which can be decoded natively in hardware by BirdDog's 4K Family of NDI Encoders and Decoders. If decoding with a 4:2:0 receiver the stream will automatically serve 4:2:0 and this is what will be decoded. Think of it as an automatic and virtual handshake.
Free Cam Control. Shade like a pro, bro.
BirdDog Cam Control allows full access to the entire colour matrix, black levels, and even the gamma to be able to shade your P400's like a total pro. Right click to view camera full screen on a secondary monitor to really dial in the look you want and then copy the settings to colour match cameras in seconds. Yes that's right. Colour match cameras in seconds. And it's 100% FREE with all BirdDog PTZ cameras.
Incredible low light performance.
In low light conditions the camera automatically switches from day to night mode, removing the IR-cut filter to boost sensitivity for clear pictures in near-darkness.
