BirdDog 3 x X1 Ultra PTZ Cameras & KBD PTZ Controller Bundle (Black)

The BirdDog 3 x X1 Ultra PTZ Cameras & KBD PTZ Controller Bundle delivers a complete multicamera streaming and control solution for professional video production. This package combines three X1 Ultra PTZ cameras with 12x optical zoom, UHD 4K30 capture, AI auto-framing, and integrated NDI|HX3 encoding, alongside a dedicated KBD controller featuring a built-in screen for simultaneous four-camera monitoring. Whether you're running live events, hybrid broadcasts, corporate productions, or multi-angle content creation, this bundle streamlines your workflow with PoE connectivity, Wi-Fi 5 support, and unified camera control, all shipping in a custom high-density EPP foam protective case.

Complete Production Control in One Package

Managing multiple PTZ cameras becomes effortless with the included KBD controller. The 1280 x 720 integrated display lets you monitor up to four cameras simultaneously or focus on a single feed in full-screen mode. Switch between cameras with single keystrokes, access essential functions instantly, and utilise Super-Fine Control Mode for 10x joystick sensitivity when precise on-air framing matters most. The ergonomic design with hand-rest area supports extended shooting sessions without fatigue.

Professional Image Quality with Intelligent Features

Each X1 Ultra camera captures UHD 4K30 resolution video with exceptional low-light performance, colour matrix control, and Kelvin adjustment. The AI tracking technology intelligently follows subjects in real-time, maintaining professional framing whether you're covering live events, sports action, or dynamic presentations. The powerful 12x optical zoom provides flexible shot composition without sacrificing image quality.

Simplified Connectivity and Workflow

• PoE support powers cameras through a single Ethernet cable, reducing cable clutter and simplifying installation
• Built-in Wi-Fi 5 enables wireless operation in locations where running cables proves difficult
• HDMI and USB/UVC outputs with independent resolution for direct connection to Teams, Zoom, and conferencing platforms
• Integrated NDI decoder in each camera supports confidence monitoring, return feeds, or teleprompter usage through a single cable
• NDI|HX2 and NDI|HX3 integration reduces network impact whilst maintaining excellent image quality
• Controller supports VISCA-IP, ONVIF, RS-232, and RS-422 protocols for broad compatibility

Visual Communication Features

Large, daylight-visible halo tally lights with interchangeable illuminated numbering keep talent and crew informed during multi-camera productions. The 7.4 centimetre E-Ink display on each camera provides clear status information, whilst integrated tally borders on the controller facilitate live switching with TriCaster or vMix platforms.

Efficient Camera Management

The Effortless Camera Settings Sync function eliminates repetitive configuration work by copying settings from one X-series device to another. This proves invaluable when deploying multiple cameras with consistent colour profiles, exposure settings, or network configurations, saving significant setup time on location or in the studio.

Protected Transport and Support

The bundle ships in a customised high-density EPP foam protective case designed specifically for the cameras and controller. Protect Plus coverage includes two-year warranty protection, advanced replacement hardware, and 24x5 technical support. Please verify current firmware versions on the manufacturer's website and review release notes before updating your equipment.
