BirdDog BDO4GR Outdoor PTZ Camera With 30x Optical Zoom (Gray)

The O4 captures sharp, color-accurate 4K60 video using a large 1/1.8" CMOS sensor with multi-exposure HDR. With fine control over color, gamma, exposure, and dynamic range, it matches the look of higher-end production cameras, making it ideal for mixed workflows. From sports facilities to smart cities, transport, houses of worship, large-scale events, and security, the O4 is built to produce exceptional content anywhere.

Unlike typical outdoor PTZs that create cable management headaches, the O4 is designed with installers in mind. All I/O connections live in a concealed, weather-sealed undercarriage with three flanges and built-in strain relief for clean, reliable setups. Power can be delivered over PoE++ for single-cable simplicity, or via external DC for flexibility. And if you need O4 indoors, simply remove the panel and mount it like any standard PTZ.

The 30x optical zoom lens (60x in HD) lets you frame subjects clearly from a distance without relying on digital tricks. For low-light or no-light conditions, the O4 deploys a precision infrared laser emitter, paired with IR cut filters and a black-and-white mode that adapts automatically to changing light. The result is visibility you can count on, day or night.

The O4 operates from -40 to 140°F and is protected by a fully sealed IP66-rated housing. A built-in heater prevents condensation, and cutting-edge lens coatings keep your optics clean. The result is a PTZ you can trust year-round and in any condition.

The O4 features a next-generation AI tracking engine with fully adjustable movement profiles. Whether you need fast, responsive tracking for sports, or smooth, cinematic motion for houses of worship and live events, the O4 adapts to your environment. For security and monitoring, its human-like precision ensures your subjects are always in frame.

The O4 is built for unforgiving outdoor conditions. Its aircraft-grade, hydrophobic glass repels water, dust, and grime to keep the lens clear without moving parts. That means no smears, no streaks, and no maintenance. Rain or shine, the O4 delivers consistent visibility and reliable performance year-round.

The O4 is built for almost any workflow. Stream in Full NDI and NDI HX3 at the same time, or output NDI alongside SRT, RTMP, or RTSP. With native 12G-SDI connectivity and fiber via SFP+, the O4 is built to deliver broadcast results in any environment. It integrates effortlessly into IP, hybrid, or traditional baseband setups. PoE++ keeps installs simple and scalable, while dual-streaming support ensures you can deliver in multiple formats at once.
