BirdDog BDXLUB (BD-XLUB, BD/XLUB, BD_XLUB, BD XLUB) XL Ultra 4K60 UHD PTZ Camera - Black

This isn’t just another PTZ — it’s a powerhouse built around a massive 4/3" CMOS sensor, the kind typically reserved for high-end cinema and DSLR cameras. Combined with a 20× optical zoom (40× in HD), OLPF, and ND filters, the XL delivers true cinematic depth, exceptional low-light performance, and razor-sharp clarity that redefines what a PTZ can do.

But the XL goes beyond sensor size. Its innovative dual-camera design pairs a main PTZ with a 100° panoramic camera, both shooting in 4K60, both independently adjustable, and both capable of simultaneous output. One system, two perspectives, limitless creative freedom.

AI tracking is powered by an advanced neural processor, ensuring natural framing with human-like precision. Premium-grade motors and a next-generation thermal system guarantee whisper-smooth, near-silent movement — keeping the focus on your subject, not the hardware.

Connectivity leaves no compromises: 12G-SDI, HDMI, SFP+ fiber, PoE++, and balanced XLR audio. Simultaneous Full NDI® and NDI® HX3 streaming, plus dual-stream support with SRT, RTMP, or RTSP, make it ready for any workflow — broadcast, AV, XR, or virtual production.

Signature BirdDog details elevate the XL Ultra even further: customizable RGB Halo Tally, dual side e-ink displays, and a rear numbering tally system. It’s a PTZ that not only performs like cinema but looks the part too.

From studios and XR stages to houses of worship and arena productions — the XL Ultra is built to lead.
