Sony SRGA40W/N 4K PTZ Camera w/Auto Framing Camera, 30x Zoom (NDI license incl, White)

Product Overview

The Sony SRG-A40W/N is a 4K PTZ camera with AI-powered Auto Framing that automatically detects and tracks a presenter, keeping them naturally framed without a camera operator. Built around a 1/2.5-type Exmor R CMOS sensor, it captures 4K at 60p with a 20x optical zoom (extended via Clear Image Zoom) and outputs over 3G-SDI, HDMI, and IP. The NDI|HX license is included. This is the white model, ideal for lecture capture, houses of worship, and meeting spaces.

Product Description

The SRG-A40 pairs a motorized pan/tilt/zoom mechanism with Sony's AI analytics, which detect a subject's skeleton and head position to track the right person even when several are in frame. Three shooting modes — full body, waist, and close-up — let you set the composition, after which the camera maintains the subject in the chosen position automatically. A 1/2.5-type Exmor R CMOS sensor (8.5 MP effective) captures 4K at 60p (3840 x 2160) with H.264 and H.265 encoding, through a varifocal 4.40–88mm lens (f/2.0–3.8) with a 70° wide field of view and 20x optical zoom; the product listing references up to 30x, which corresponds to Clear Image Zoom (confirm the exact Clear Image Zoom ratio against Sony's spec sheet). Outputs include 3G-SDI, HDMI, and IP over RJ45, with PoE or 19.5 VDC power and IR remote control. A built-in tally lamp shows status, changing from red (on air) to green (Auto Framing active). This model includes the NDI|HX license and ships in white with a ceiling-mount kit and IR remote. The white finish is the only difference from the black SRG-A40/N.

Competitor Comparison

Comparison of 4K PTZ cameras with auto-tracking for lecture capture and AV. Competitor figures reflect published specifications and should be confirmed against the latest vendor sheets before purchase.

The SRG-A40's distinguishing feature is Sony's skeleton-based AI Auto Framing, which tracks a presenter reliably even among several people, with the NDI|HX license bundled. Where a larger 1"-type sensor is preferred, the Canon CR-N500 is an alternative; confirm current competitor specifications before deciding.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the SRG-A40W/N differ from the SRG-A40/N?
Only the finish: this is the white version. The camera, sensor, lens, Auto Framing, and included NDI license are identical.

How does Auto Framing work?
Sony's AI analytics detect a subject's skeleton and head position and drive the pan/tilt/zoom to keep them framed automatically, tracking the correct person even with several in view.

Is the zoom 20x or 30x?
The lens provides 20x optical zoom; the listing's 30x figure refers to Clear Image Zoom. Confirm the exact ratio against Sony's spec sheet.

What does the tally lamp indicate?
Red shows the camera is on air; green shows PTZ Auto Framing is active.

How is it powered and mounted?
