The black BirdDog EYES P400 is a full NDI 4K PTZ camera featuring up to 4K30 resolution, an 8.5MP Sony CMOS backlit sensor, pro-level color control, and simultaneous 6G-SDI, HDMI, and NDI output. When paired with a BirdDog NDI encoder, the P400 provides native 4:2:2 decoding with a 4:2:0 option available for compatible receivers. Detailed 4K resolution and fast pan, tilt, zoom, and autofocus functions make the P400 ideal for fast-paced sports, larger indoor events, and other dynamic productions.
The P400 PTZ camera captures the action with a fast f/2.0 20x optical zoom lens plus 12x digital zoom, and 30x SRZ (Super Resolution Zoom) in 4K and 40x SRZ in HD. Remote control options for the P400 include NDI, VISCA over IP, RS-422/RS-232 options in SDI, and an included IR controller. The separately available BirdDog PTZ Keyboard can be used to control up to 255 cameras on a single network.
The P400 can be used with the downloadable BirdDog Central Lite NDI stream down-converting software, Cam Control camera settings control, and Comms Lite audio intercom software. Camera setting controls like color matrix, black levels, gamma, ND filters, and more give you the ability to create just the look you want and share it across multiple cameras. An IR cut filter automatically switches to night mode to produce clear images in low-light settings. Power the P400 via PoE or by using the included power adapter.

4K NDI® WITH PROFESSIONAL
LEVEL COLOUR CONTROL.

Double Wow.
P400 includes professional-level colour tools including Colour Matrix control, Black level, Gamma including 512 pre-set gamma positions.
Triple Wow.
In the world of NDI® there are two flavours, NDI® and NDI|HX. NDI® is a variable bit rate, I-Frame codec that reaches around 140Mbits at 1080p60 and is visually lossless. NDI|HX is a compressed, long-GOP, H.264 variant that reaches around 12Mbits at 1080p60. P400 is a Full NDI® camera.
P400 debuts the world’s first 4K NDI with chroma subsampling at 4:2:2 which can be decoded natively in hardware by BirdDog’s 4K Family of NDI Encoders and Decoders. If decoding with a 4:2:0 receiver the stream will automatically serve 4:2:0 and this is what will be decoded. Think of it as an automatic and virtual handshake.
BirdDog Cam Control allows full access to the entire colour matrix, black levels, and even the gamma to be able to shade your P400’s like a total pro. Right click to view camera full screen on a secondary monitor to really dial in the look you want and then copy the settings to colour match cameras in seconds. Yes, that’s right. Colour match cameras in seconds. And it’s 100% FREE with all BirdDog PTZ cameras.
In low light conditions, the camera automatically switches from day to night mode, removing the IR-cut filter to boost sensitivity for clear pictures in near-darkness.
33 P400. 1 BirdDog Cloud. 580 Crew Positions. 7 venues in Austin. 1 Giant NDI network. The largest Crypto Conference in History.
Watch how the team from ATX Event Systems teamed up with WiFi Joe to build a live production workflow across 7 venues, miles apart in Austin, Texas.
With NDI®, 6G-SDI, and HDMI simultaneous outputs, the P400 is ready to go live with your full NDI® workflow today or if you are still in an old school SDI workflow you can use it as an SDI camera and ease your way into the world of NDI® when you are ready. We’ll be here to welcome you into the future with open arms.
With Genlock you can now synchronise multiple cameras using the Genlock input. Now all your cameras can be hitting your NDI® enabled vision mixer at the same time and lets you eliminate the need to add frame buffers.
P400’s robotics are super precise and super sensitive. Wind down the panning and tilting speeds to create super professional shots that are dramatic, or crank up the speeds for high action sports to allow you to follow the movements.
The 20x optical zoom offers a bright F2.0 aperture with a super smooth and fast zoom. Transition from wide to tele and recall pre-set positions quickly and with super fine precision.
The incredible optical zoom function makes P400 perfect for sports such as football, baseball, hockey, ski fields, basketball, soccer, and more.
NDI has tally information built into the metadata so when P400 is connected to an NDI enabled switcher the tally light on the front of the unit to ensure your on air talent will always know which camera is live. There is no configuration required; it just works.
P400 can be powered by Power over Ethernet (PoE+) for single cable operation that can carry Video, Audio, Power, Tally, and Intercom or you can choose to use the included power adapter.
Combine P400 with the BirdDog PTZ Keyboard and you have total control of all functions remotely. PTZ Keyboard is a full featured PTZ Keyboard that can control up to 255 PTZ cameras on a single network so can scale to even the most complex installations. PTZ Keyboard can control P400 over NDI® or by RS422 / RS232 when using in SDI mode.
