Review Summary
The amazing ClearVIEW HD-20SE HD PTZ Camera quite literally combines all of the best features of the ClearVIEW HD-18, HD-19 and HD-20 HD PTZ cameras into ONE! The innovation of the HD-18 EZCamera Cat-5 interfaces, the low light capability of the HD-19 and the FULL HD performance of the HD-20 are all represented and improved upon with the ClearVIEW HD-20SE. The ClearVIEW HD- 20SE is clearly the best ClearVIEW ever and here's why. The HD-20SE is a native 1080p/60 camera using the latest 1/2.8-Type Exmor high-speed, low noise CMOS image sensor technology with 2.38 Megapixels (total) and 2.14 Megapixels (effective).
The ISP (image signal processor) is off-the-hook, not only providing fast, razor-sharp auto-focus routines with incredible detail, realistic textures and vivid colors, it also has an impressive low-light performance of 0.3 Lux (color) and 0.03 Lux (B/W). The lens is a 20X optical zoom multi-element glass lens with an impressive horizontal field of view of 63deg. on the wide end to 3.47deg. on the tele end. The outputs are simultaneous HDMI, YPbPr and HSDS (differential video for use with Quick-Connect Interfaces) and supports both drop frame and non-drop frame HD video resolutions of 1080p/60/59.94/50/30/25, 1080i/60/59.94/50 and 720p/60/59.94/50.
So to recap, latest technology, awesome ISP, superb low-light performance, powerful yet wide angle lens, lots and lots of video outs, drop and non-drop frame video, Full HD and there's more! The QUSB Systems pair the Quick-Connect USB with the HD-20SE camera to create a very powerful and flexible system. These robust systems uses the Vaddio EZCamera Cabling system and uses two Cat-5/5e/6 cables to provide power, return video and extends RS-232 control signaling to the camera up to a distance of 100' (30.48m). The Quick-Connect USB rear panel includes the USB 2.0 connection and the Ethernet 10/100 connection to provide for USB 2.0 streaming or IP video streaming and IP control. The USB 2.0 uses the standard UVC (Universal Video Class) drivers built-in to the OS of the computer, which means that no pesky programs or additional drivers and the associated headaches are required.
Any compatible UC client using UVC drivers can be used (see compatible UC program list). The system also streams IP video (H.264) and supports both RTSP and HLS (HTTP Live Streaming, Apple's variant on HTTP streaming). An embedded web server provides for browser-based access of the HD-22/30 robotic camera controls, camera presets and rudimentary CCU functions (color and shading/painting controls) as well as the video configuration web pages. Analog (YPbPr) and HDMI video outputs are also included and output the same video resolution that is sent from the camera simultaneously. The USB and IP resolutions are independent from the standard HD video outputs.
The ClearVIEW HD-20SE QUSB system is an exceptional value and a remarkable camera for even the most demanding HD video applications including House of Worship productions, pro A/V system integration, distance learning classrooms, live events, IMAG systems, UC conferencing applications, videoconferencing, distance learning and lecture capture. To top it all off, the ClearVIEW HD-20SE cameras are available in black or arctic white and are made in the USA.
