The VC-A51P supports live production workflows thanks to its HDMI and SDI connectivity and is compliant with all major live streaming services including YouTube and Facebook, and learning platforms such as Panopto and Kaltura.
With 1080p resolution, the VC-A51P can be used in demanding AV or broadcast environments. Its 1/2.8" 2.16MP Sony CMOS sensor delivers faithful colors and excellent levels of detail even in low light conditions. Pictures are captured with a natural look whether projected onto a big screen or streamed to mobile users.
Lumens' autofocus system is fast and accurate, and able to track subjects in motion. This level of automation gives users the confidence to concentrate on framing the picture, leaving the camera to deliver sharp images without user input.
