4K PTZ Camera for an era of enhanced creativity and the pursuit of visual expression

Demand continues to grow in the video content market

The AW-UE160 can be used in a variety of situations even when the flow of people and cost control are required, including shooting large-scale events and studio recording and streaming.

By combining a system camera with a PTZ Camera, it overturns the conventions of the video content industry with its unique style of video production that can be expressed through a variety of shooting techniques, its industry-leading shooting performance with a variety of new functions, and its scalability to support the latest international standards and a wide range of protocols and I/Fs.

Uncompromising shooting performance and operability

High sensitivity of F14/2000 lx, equivalent to a studio camera. Noise reduction and improved image quality are realized by the newly developed image processing engine also used in LUMIX. By combining a variety of functions, including the Phase Detection Autofocus (PDAF) function, a new feature in the PTZ Camera that enables high-speed focusing on moving subjects, the camera can produce high-quality videos in all kinds of situations, such as shooting in dark places and shooting moving subjects. The new PTZ new mechanism provides a high-precision operating feel while maintaining a compact body to support the delicate photographic techniques of professionals and contribute to uncompromising video shooting.

High sensitivity of F14/2000 lx, equivalent to a studio camera

The high sensitivity of F14/2000 lx allows for clear, clean images even when shooting moving subjects in dimly lit rooms such as stages and live venues. The sensitivity can be set to either Normal mode or High Sensitivity mode, depending on the shooting location and scene.

New generation engine that maximizes image sensor performance and improves image quality and AF performance

The camera uses a new-generation image processing engine, also used in the LUMIX GH6, with improved processing power. High-pixel image data output from the 1-type (1“) (effective size) MOS sensor, which offers an excellent balance between adequate depth of field, high image quality and high sensitivity, is processed at high speed to improve the S/N ratio.

In terms of autofocus (AF) performance, the subject detection performance has been greatly improved through faster processing of calculations and improved AF algorithms, and highly accurate AF is achieved by discriminating between the subject's movement and characteristics. It also offers high video processing performance and enables more unique video expression with resolution performance, high sensitivity performance, and color reproduction that does not compromise your commitment to video image creation.

New noise reduction (sD)

Realizes more natural and three-dimensional rendering with less noise than ever before, with improved performance in suppressing unpleasant color low-frequency noise and pleasant noise graininess.

Afterimage-less 3DNR

Significantly improves the ability to distinguish between still and moving areas and eliminates unwanted noise while suppressing afterimages.

New Intelligent Detail

Analyzes the characteristics of the subject pixel by pixel and determine flat/detailed/edge areas. By controlling image processing based on the results, detailed areas are rendered with a greater sense of resolution, while edge areas are suppressed from unnatural fringing (shoot phenomenon) caused by image processing. By performing appropriate image processing according to the subject, the camera realizes true descriptive power with high reproducibility.

Equipped with newly developed PDAF (Phase Detection Autofocus)

Equipped with a new AF system that combines phase detection AF (phase detection) with contrast AF (contrast detection). The camera's fast focusing speed and high focusing accuracy enable it to track subjects and capture in-focus images even in dark locations, whether it is continuously focusing on a moving subject or switching focus on multiple subjects.

Equipped with newly developed PTZ mechanism

A new PTZ mechanism was developed to maintain the compact body while incorporating a large lens for high sensitivity and system camera-level functions. The camera is quiet and does not disturb the photographer, and its high static accuracy provides high operability that allows the photographer to shoot exactly what he/she aims for.

Equipped with moiré reduction function by optical low-pass filter

Compatible with V-Log, which is used in Panasonic's high-end VariCam cinema cameras and LUMIX mirrorless SLR cameras. The wide dynamic range and wide color gamut provide images suitable for color grading. When used in conjunction with our camera recorders and studio cameras equipped with V-Log, video production with consistent image creation is possible. In addition, two settings, V-Log and V-709, can be selected independently for each output interface. Simultaneously output 4K V-Log video for color grading while outputting Full HD V-709 video for onsite monitoring.

Compatible with V-Log

What is Log
It has a wide color gamut and wide dynamic range, and records all brightness as evenly as possible, resulting in a low-contrast image in appearance.
The color grading tool allows a high degree of freedom in image creation using 3D LUTs and CDLs.
V-Log is a log curve developed for the VariCam cinema cameras based on our image creation philosophy and is used in many of our cameras.
