NDI Has Never Looked So Good
The best just got better. For free
P200's new Advanced Color Tools unlock a suite of incredibly powerful, professional level, color tuning features. The full Color Matrix provides 64 individual control levels for saturation and hue of Red, Green, Blue, Cyan, Yellow and Magenta, while the 72 Gamma stops let you really dial in those black level details and do all this from the free Cam Control app. New Video, Exposure, and Detail enhancement tools are also included to round out this exceptionally powerful update.
P200 is already the world's flagship NDI camera and the entire codec engine has been rebuilt from the ground up to provide even lower latency and computationally higher picture quality at a lower data rate.
New Color Matrix. Just like Color but Australian
Dialing in your cameras just levelled up. P200 now has a full color matrix with individual saturation and hue control over Red, Green, Blue, Cyan, Yellow and Magenta, all with 64 levels of control.

New Codec Engine
A totally rebuilt codec engine brings even lower latency to the P200 and computationally higher picture quality. Better pictures, less bandwidth, faster.
Full NDI. No compromises
In the world of NDI there are two flavors, NDI and NDI|HX. NDI is a variable bit rate, I-Frame codec that is reaches around 140Mbits at 1080p60 and is visually lossless. NDI|HX is a compressed, long-GOP, H.264 variant that reaches around 12Mbits at 1080p60. P200 is a Full NDI camera.
Tally light that just works
NDI has tally information built into the metadata so when P200 is connected to an NDI enabled switcher the tally light on the front of the unit to ensure your on air talent will always know which camera is live. There is no configuration required; it just works.
