BirdDog X4E Ultra UHD PTZ Camera - Black

The X4E Advantage — Pure Performance. Zero Compromise.

The BirdDog X4E is a next-generation 4K60 camera engineered for uncompromising performance. It delivers the same acclaimed BirdDog image quality, precision robotics, and advanced AI automation as the X4 Ultra — now optimized in a wired-first design. Featuring NDI® | HX3, a Sony 1/1.8” sensor, HALO Tally, an E-Ink Display, and versatile connectivity through SDI, HDMI, USB-C, and IP, the X4E integrates seamlessly into any professional production environment. Powered via PoE or DC, it’s built for reliability, longevity, and all-day operation.

HALO Tally — Visibility Meets Precision.

Professional productions demand instant visual feedback. BirdDog’s signature HALO Tally surrounds the lens with a bright, daylight-visible ring — giving on-camera talent clear confirmation of which unit is live. It’s an intuitive, elegant system that keeps your team in perfect sync.

AI Tracking — Smarter Control. Smoother Results.

With BirdDog’s intelligent AI tracking, the X4E locks onto subjects naturally and consistently. Its adaptive algorithms deliver smooth, cinematic motion for lectures, live events, and fixed studio broadcasts alike — learning and refining as your workflow evolves.

NDI® | HX3 — Maximum Quality, Minimal Bandwidth.

Leveraging BirdDog’s industry-leading implementation of NDI® | HX3, the X4E achieves stunning image fidelity with ultra-low latency and efficient network use. It’s streaming performance you can depend on — engineered to exceed NDI certification standards and optimized for demanding IP infrastructures.

Power Simplified — PoE or DC.

Eliminate the clutter of external power supplies. The X4E operates through Power over Ethernet or DC input, offering plug-and-play simplicity and fewer failure points — ensuring consistent, professional-grade uptime.

E-Ink Display — Always On. Always Informative.

Even when powered off, the E-Ink Display stays readable — showing IP addresses, labels, and status at a glance. This smart interface keeps every unit identifiable and organized during setup or downtime. (Custom branding support coming soon.)

Perfectly Paired with X4 Ultra.

Built on the same DNA, X4E and X4 Ultra complement each other seamlessly — one wired for reliability, the other wireless for freedom. Together, they form the ultimate hybrid production ecosystem for any modern studio.
