Sony's New PTZ Cameras Deliver 4K 60p; New STARVIS Sensor Meets Low-Light Demands

Sony Electronics is introducing the SRG-AS10, a 4K 60p-compatible PTZ auto-framing camera that uses Sony's proprietary AI to automatically recognize and track subjects and capture them with natural composition, and the SRG-XS10 basic 4K PTZ camera at Infocomm.

Both models are equipped with a 1/2.8-type 4K image sensor featuring STARVIS, Sony's proprietary image-sensor technology, which enables clear video capture even in low-light environments. In addition, they are enhanced with smooth, natural pan-and-tilt operation, delivering fluid camera movement from start to stop without abrupt acceleration or deceleration.

Sony's new PTZ cameras feature 1/2.8-type 4K STARVIS image sensing for clear video capture even in low light.The SRG-AS10 and SRG-XS10 support up to 10X optical zoom in 4K. In addition, using Tele Convert Mode 1, they support up to 20X zoom in Full HD, providing flexible framing for a wide variety of capture and streaming scenarios.

The cameras are suitable for a wide range of shooting distances - from close-up shots to the back of the hall - in concert halls, theaters, gymnasiums, and similar venues. Their compact, lightweight design allows them to blend into spaces where it may be difficult to position a camera operator: classrooms, meeting rooms, or even narrow spaces like backstage wings or sports venue. It allows installation in diverse settings and enables capture of high-resolution video that clearly reveals facial expressions.

With the announcement of the SRG-AS10 and SRG-XS10, Sony continues to enable professional and reliable 4K capture across real-world AV environments, says Rich Ventura, VP, Professional Display Solutions, Sony Electronics. Combining intelligent automation, smooth PTZ performance, flexible integration, and support for common routing and control protocols, these compact cameras remove technical barriers. Tele Convert Mode 1 is available only when outputting in Full HD resolution.

Both models are expected to be available near the end of this year.

Key features of the SRG-AS10:

PTZ auto framing for smooth, natural automated capture

Powered by Sony's proprietary AI analytics algorithms, the PTZ auto-framing function automatically tracks subjects and continuously adjusts framing to maintain natural composition. It supports diverse capture and streaming needs, including online classes and remote lectures in education, corporate content creation and internal/external streaming, and sports capture, including a dedicated basketball-game tracking mode, Ball Sports (Basketball) Mode 2. This enables automated capture without reliance on operators or advanced skills.

Ball Sports (Basketball) Mode

This sport-specific mode supports automated capture of indoor full-court basketball games from a wide shot. Recognizing the court area and tracking not only players but also the fast and irregular movement of the ball, the camera captures the flow of play with accurate framing.

Multi-Person Framing

The camera automatically adjusts framing so that a specified number of people - up to eight - fit within the frame, maintaining a natural composition. It supports stable capture in multi-person scenes, such as corporate conferences, panel discussions, weddings, sports games, worship services, and various ceremonies.

Clear video even in low light with STARVIS

Equipped with a 1/2.8-type 4K image sensor with STARVIS technology, the camera delivers clear, low-noise images even in low-light environments. Smooth motion reproduction at 4K 60p accurately captures natural human movement as well as fast-paced and detailed sports action.

Flexible installation and capture methods for a wide range of applications

With a compact, lightweight design that blends into any space, the cameras support both tripod and ceiling-mounted installation, making them easy to deploy in a wide range of environments: lecture rooms, conference rooms, studios, halls, sports venues. In addition to SDI and HDMI outputs, the cameras come with NDI HX2 pre-installed and support IP streaming protocols RTSP, RTMP, and SRT, enabling remote production over IP networks. They also support PoE++, allowing power, video, and control to be delivered through a single LAN cable for simplified, scalable system integration. The web-based user interface (Web UI) enables intuitive operation from a tablet or PC via a web browser.

Key Features of the SRG-XS10

Equipped with a 1/2.8-type 4K image sensor with STARVIS technology, the camera enables clear video expression in low light. Compact, lightweight design allows it to be installed in such various environments as classrooms and meeting rooms. It's suitable for everyday streaming and recording tasks, including lecture capture, internal corporate streaming, and online meetings.
