Kramer K-CAMHD 1080p PTZ Camera, HD 1080p Pro PTZ Camera with 12x Optical Zoom

Product Overview

The Kramer K-CAMHD is a commercial 1080p PTZ camera for mid-size and large conference rooms, classrooms, and boardrooms, providing full HD video capture with 12x optical zoom, smooth pan-tilt-zoom control, and USB 3.0 plug-and-play connectivity to all major video conferencing platforms. AV integrators and IT managers deploy the K-CAMHD where 4K is not required but high-quality, controllable HD camera coverage is essential — delivering clear images of presenters, whiteboards, and participants with 2D and 3D DNR and WDR for reliable performance across variable lighting conditions. The K-CAMHD connects directly to a conferencing computer via USB 3.0, requires no driver installation, and is controllable via RS-232 VISCA, IR remote, or any Kramer control platform. Its 255 programmable preset positions and ±170° pan / ±30° tilt range give operators complete room coverage without camera repositioning.

Product Description

The K-CAMHD uses a 1/2.7-inch HD CMOS sensor (2.07MP) with a 12x optical zoom lens (f=3.5mm–42.3mm) and 16x digital zoom, delivering a horizontal field of view of 72.5° at wide angle — sufficient to cover a medium conference table or classroom without distortion. Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) and 2D/3D Digital Noise Reduction ensure clear, detailed images even in rooms with mixed natural and artificial lighting or backlighting from windows. Pan speed up to 100°/second and tilt speed up to 28°/second allow rapid repositioning during active conferences and live events. USB 3.0 Type-B output provides plug-and-play compatibility with Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Cisco Webex, and other UC platforms without additional drivers or video capture hardware. RS-232 VISCA control via the included VISCA connector enables integration with Kramer Control, AMX, Crestron, and other room automation systems. A 3.5mm stereo audio input allows connection of a room microphone directly to the camera for simplified single-cable audio-video integration. All 255 preset positions have 0.1° accuracy for precise, repeatable framing.
