Point, tilt, zoom from anywhere

Bolin has unveiled Range, reportedly the first PTZR camera built to function as an anywhere camera, allowing production teams to use the same camera across both indoor and outdoor environments. While most outdoor cameras sacrifice the size and usability expected from indoor production systems, Range maintains the form factor and visual presence of a professional indoor PTZ while adding the durability required for outdoor operation.

With 4K60 video and 25x zoom powered by a 1/1.8-inch Sony sensor, Range is suited for applications ranging from studios and performing arts venues to sports production and live events. Its IP65 rating, concealed rain wiper and operating range from –40°C to +60°C allow the camera to operate in changing weather conditions.

Range also introduces a motion system, with brushless motors capable of PTZR movement up to 300° per second and acceleration from 0–120° per second in 200ms. The image module can rotate up to 270°, enabling vertical video, creative camera angles and horizon correction.

Additional features include an integrated screen for reviewing settings and live preview, a built-in carrying handle with threaded accessory mounting points and support for both Ethernet and Wi-Fi connectivity. Connectivity includes 12G-SDI, HDMI 2.0, USB-C (UVC) and IP outputs, along with support for NDI, SRT, RTMP, RTSP and ONVIF workflows.
