The Ultimate in Professional Cinema Quality PTZ Cameras

Setting the bar, the AW-UE160 4K PTZ camera is equipped with a newly developed 4K 1” MOS sensor, providing the highest sensitivity among Panasonic’s PTZ lineup. This allows production teams to capture clear images even in challenging lighting conditions, making it ideal for shooting in concert venues or churches. Additionally, the UE160’s new optical low pass filter minimizes the moiré effect when shooting against an LED wall, ensuring clearer picture quality, which is particularly beneficial for rental and staging or worship environments. Furthermore, its high-speed frame rate enables sports broadcasters to capture HD slow motion shots for replays, while seamless integration with the robotic camera system delivers live broadcast-style movements to the PTZ, resulting in a dynamic and highly engaging video production.

Key Features

  • Uncompromising shooting performance and operability
  • Optical low-pass filter significantly reduces moiré
  • Newly developed 4K Sensor offering superior sensitivity
  • Significantly improved Autofocus with advanced technology
  • SMPTE 2110 Support with purchase of additional software key



The 4K PTZ Camera is designed for a time of heightened creativity and the quest for visual representation.
