Description
The BRC-X1000 is the 4K member of Sony's premium PTZ family, pairing a 1.0-type back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS sensor with 4K30p capture and a 12x optical zoom. It is the camera to specify where the larger sensor matters - low light, shallow depth of field, broadcast-grade colour - and where the programme needs 4K rather than HD.
It resolves 1800 TV lines at the centre through 3G-SDI and works down to 1.7 lux. For 4K it offers Dual Link 3G-SDI (2SI) across two outputs plus HDMI; in HD it provides four 3G-SDI outputs plus HDMI, which is enough to feed a mixer, a monitor and a record chain at once. Pan is +/-170 degrees, tilt +90 to -30 degrees, with 100 stored presets.
Control is over VISCA RS-422 or VISCA over IP, so it sits alongside other Sony BRC cameras under an RM-IP500 or RM-IP10 panel. Power is DC 12 V or PoE+. The body matches the BRC-H800 at 198 x 260 x 238 mm and about 4.3 kg, and ships with a ceiling bracket, wire rope and IR remote commander.

f = 9.3 to 111.6 mm with 1800 TV lines of centre resolution through the SDI output.
Drops into an existing Sony robotic camera system under an RM-IP500 or RM-IP10 controller.
