Precautions for
Preventing Access to
the Camera by an
Unintended Third Party
The camera settings may be changed by an unintended
third party on the network, depending on the usage
environment.
The camera can be fraudulently accessed in a network
environment where a device is connected or connectable
to the network without the administrator’s permission,
or where a PC or other network device connected to the
network can be used without any permission.
After configuring the camera, immediately change the
password you use for upgrading the firmware on the
camera, from a Web browser on your PC, and for
changing settings. For how to change password, see
“Changing the password” (page 51).

Features
Pan/Tilt/Zoom CMOS video camera
equipped with a small built-in pan-tilt
head
The camera unit is equipped with a 1.0-type Exmor R
®
CMOS
sensor and an optical 12× zoom lens with pan/tilt/zoom features
integrated into a small built-in pan-tilt head. This versatile
camera can be used for various applications.
The pan-tilt head can pan to the right or left by ±170 degrees
and tilt upward to 90 degrees and downward to 30 degrees,
which allows the camera to remotely shoot wide areas.
The camera pans and tilts smoothly, even at low movement
speed.
The camera pans and tilts quietly, even at its maximum speed of
60 degrees per second.
Up to 100 preset positions can be saved. The PTZ Motion Sync
function enables smooth preset operation with coordinated pan/
tilt and zoom. In addition, the speed of movement between
positions can be adjusted from an optional RM-IP500/IP10
Remote Controller.
Zoom performance for capturing distant
subjects
In addition to 12× optical zoom, it uses Sony’s 2×
*1
Clear Image Zoom function and 2× Tele Convert
mode
*2
to achieve the equivalent of up to 48×
*2
telephoto performance.
*1
When shooting at 1920×1080 only. 1.5× when
shooting at 3840×2160.
*2
When shooting at 1920×1080 only.
High sensitivity and high resolution from
built-in 1.0-type CMOS image sensor
With the built-in highly photosensitive 1.0-type Exmor
R
®
CMOS sensor, high resolution shooting with less
noise can be achieved. Highly sensitive shooting unique
to the large sensor can be achieved. In addition, the
camera is equipped with a ZEISS Vario-Sonnar T* built-
in lens.

Compatible only with the BRC-X1000
Equipped with 3G-SDI and HDMI output
The camera can deliver 4K output for both Dual Link
3G-SDI×2 (2SI) and HDMI.
Various installation environments are available in order
to establish a connection with HDMI, in addition to the
coaxial cable.
Equipped with PoE+ (Power Over
Ethernet Plus)
The camera is compatible with PoE+ (Power Over
Ethernet Plus), so a single LAN cable can be used for
power provision and control.
Compatible with VISCA over IP protocol
An IP connection can be established between the camera
and the remote controller.
Equipped with External Video Sync
Function
The camera is equipped with an external video sync
function to synchronize the camera images on multiple
cameras.
Equipped with Tally Lamp Function
The camera is equipped with a Tally lamp that quickly
distinguishes when the camera is in use.
The front Tally lamp is a large Tally lamp used for
improving visibility. The camera is also equipped with a
Tally lamp behind the camera block, in order to improve
visibility from the rear side.
Supports network connection with RCP/
MSU
Network connection to an optional remote control panel
(RCP) or master setup unit (MSU) is supported.
Picture Profile preset function
Picture Profile presets PP1 to PP6 can be loaded. By
using these presets, you can match the image texture
with other types of camcorders that support the Picture
Profile function, or create an image texture that is
similar to that of cinematic film.
Built-in ND filter
The camera is equipped with a built-in ND filter to
enable adjustment of the light level in bright lighting
conditions without changing the shutter speed or iris.
You can choose from Off, 1/4, 1/16, and 1/64.

controller (not supplied) (depending on the setting
mode). The back Tally lamp does not light up when
TALLY MODE in the SYSTEM menu (page 41) is
set to OFF.
If a fault inside the camera is detected, the lamp
flashes at approximately 0.7 second intervals
irrespective of the on/off status of the back Tally
lamp. When a fault is detected, its content will be
displayed in the menu (see page 53). If, however,
“CAMERA FAULT” is shown, the back Tally lamp
may not flash.

firmware.
The orange lamp flashes when there are defects in
the camera (for instance, when rotations of fan
motor slow down or stop etc.).
G Network lamp
Lamp flashes during initialization when it is
connected to a PoE+ Hub using a LAN cable and
power is being supplied from the PoE+ Hub. The
lamp lights up when it is connected to the network
once start-up is complete.
Lights up after start-up is complete if network is
connected, when power is supplied to the camera
from outlet using AC adapter and power cord. The
lamp is unlit when not connected to the network.

Installation and Connection
Installing the Camera
Be sure to provide safety measures against falling
when you mount the camera.
Do not grasp the camera head when carrying the
camera.
Do not turn the camera head by hand. Doing so may
result in a camera malfunction.
Installing the camera on a desk
Installing the camera on a desk
Place the camera on a flat surface.
If you have to place the camera on an inclined surface,
make sure that the inclination is less than ±15 degrees to
guarantee pan/tilt performance, and take measures to
prevent it from falling.
Attaching the camera to a tripod
Screw the tripod screw into a tripod screw hole on the
bottom of the camera.
The tripod should be placed on a level surface, and
tighten the screw firmly by hand.
The tripod screw should be compliant with the following
standards.
4 = 4.5 mm to 7 mm
4 = 0.18 to 0.27 inches
Notes
Caution
Installation of the camera using the tripod screws and
screw holes should not be done for installation on a
ceiling, shelf, or other high spot.

Installing the camera at a high spot
The camera can be mounted on a ceiling or on a shelf or
stand located at a high spot using the supplied ceiling
bracket.
The surface on which the camera will be mounted
should be level. If you have to mount the camera on a
tilted surface, make sure that the angle is less than 15
degrees to ensure the camera can pan/tilt properly.
Before installing the camera
Decide which way the camera will shoot, and drill holes
for the ceiling bracket (B) and the connecting cable in
the ceiling or the shelf. For the dimensions of the ceiling
bracket (B), see page 62.
Connection cables cannot be routed through the
ceiling bracket (A). A hole to route wires through is
needed in the ceiling or the shelf at the back of the
camera.
Do not mount anything other than the camera onto the
ceiling bracket.
The ceiling bracket cannot be mounted on a junction
box.

Caution
When you want the camera to be mounted at a high
spot, such as on a ceiling, have a professional
contractor do the job.
When you mount the camera at a high spot, make
sure the attachment materials to which the camera
will be mounted and the fittings (except for
accessories) are capable of supporting a weight of 60
kg or greater and that the installation is done
properly. If the installation is not strong enough, the
camera may fall, resulting in a serious injury.
As a fall prevention measure, be sure to attach the
supplied wire rope to the camera securely.
When you mount the camera at a high spot, inspect
the installation once a year for any loosened parts.
Depending on the operation conditions, inspect
more frequently.
