The Marshall CV420-27X brings a long optical zoom to a fixed UHD camera position. HDMI serves nearby production or monitoring equipment, while IP streaming and remote control support network installations. It suits applications that need tighter framing of distant subjects without placing an operator at the camera.
Marshall CV420-27X Features
- 27x optical zoom range. The 5.56–150.29 mm lens provides wide-to-telephoto framing with an F1.66–F4.98 aperture range. It can isolate a distant subject while keeping the camera installed at the same location.
- UHD detail with HD options. An 8.57 MP, 1/2.5-inch CMOS sensor supports 3840 × 2160 UHD and HD formats. This allows the installation to use the resolution appropriate to its recording and display workflow.
- HDMI and IP video paths. HDMI connects to local video equipment while Ethernet carries encoded network video. The camera can be specified for a conventional display connection or a network-based production arrangement.
- Streaming protocol selection. RTSP, RTMP, RTMPS, MPEG-TS and SRT offer several ways to deliver video to compatible systems. This gives integrators protocol options when connecting the camera to an existing streaming service or receiver.
- H.265 and H.264 encoding. HEVC/H.265 and AVC/H.264 support different decoder and software environments. Encoding can be configured around receiver compatibility and network requirements rather than a single mandated codec.
- Remote operation and connected audio. RS-232 and Ethernet provide control access, PoE powers the camera over its network cable, and a 3.5 mm input accepts external audio. These interfaces support installations operated from a separate control position.
