Sony RM-IP500

Sony RM-IP500

Easy, ergonomic control of multiple PTZ cameras for production at live events and content creation.

This compact remote control features a high-quality joystick that lets you easily adjust the pan, tilt, and zoom of compatible, remote-controlled PTZ cameras from Sony. The zoom can also be controlled using the joystick or an additional rocking lever. Special buttons and control buttons simplify direct access to frequently required camera functions.

The RM-IP500 simplifies building cost-effective multi-camera systems to create content for a wide range of applications - from live events to congress halls, broadcast studios, and educational institutions.

The PTZ speed can be adjusted from slow to fast to achieve more sophisticated and professional looking results. Up to 100* combinations of camera shots and settings can be stored as presets. Trace Memory* allows you to store a sequence of camera movements, which can then be recalled as required.

Up to 100 compatible Sony BRC or SRG cameras can be controlled via a standard IP network. The device is simple: the controller automatically assigns IP addresses to the PTZ cameras connected by the network from Sony and also identifies each camera with a number.

Comprehensive compatibility is provided with the following remote-controlled PTZ camera models from Sony: BRC-X1000, BRC-H900, BRC-H800, SRG-360SHE.

The RM-IP500 is ideal for a partnership for several cameras with the Sony Live Producer MCX-500. This allows you to create a complete solution for IP streaming and SD recordings across a broad range of content production applications.
