The PTZOptics Studio SE is a compact fixed camera delivering 1080p60 with native NDI HX3 and a direct link to PTZOptics Hive Studio, built for livestreaming and remote production.
Native NDI HX3 with no licence to buy, on a camera that fits anywhere.
- 1080p60 on a 1/2.8-inch CMOS
- Native NDI HX3, no licence required
- HDMI, 3G-SDI, USB-C and IP
- Hive Studio one-step connection
- AC or PoE power
What is the Studio SE Fixed Camera with 12x Optical Zoom?
NDI HX3 is native and unlicensed here, which matters because on many competing cameras it is a paid upgrade. The Hive Studio link connects the camera to PTZOptics' browser control platform without port forwarding. Line-level audio in and out, a built-in microphone and a tally light let it slot into a live rig without extra interfacing.

Why choose PTZOptics?
Unlicensed NDI HX3 on a camera at this size and price is unusual, and the Hive link removes most of the network configuration a remote production would otherwise need.
