This PTZ Controller exceeded my expectations in every way! As someone who works regularly with PTZ cameras, this device has streamlined my workflow significantly. Key Highlights: 3" LCD Screen Preview: The built-in screen is a game-changer. It provides a clear preview of camera angles and movements, saving time and making adjustments intuitive. 4D Joystick: The joystick feels smooth and responsive, offering precise control over pan, tilt, zoom, and focus. It’s ergonomic and comfortable for extended use. PoE Functionality: The Power over Ethernet feature simplifies setup—just one cable for power and data! This was particularly useful in my studio setup. Build Quality: The controller feels sturdy and well-made. Buttons and dials have a satisfying tactile response, and it’s evident that durability was a priority in the design. Setup was straightforward, even for someone who isn't a tech wizard. The manual was clear, and the interface is intuitive enough to start using right away. Whether you're using it for live events, studio productions, or surveillance systems, this controller delivers exceptional performance. Highly recommend for professionals or hobbyists looking for a reliable, feature-rich PTZ camera controller!

Most of the reviews that like this controller are spot on. There are only a couple things that i do not like about this controller. As stated in other reviews, the on screen display option (OSD) has no function! i am using this to control 4 Sony SRG120-DH cameras, and when the OSD button is pressed, by golly the OSD appears, but there is no way to navigate the menus, and no way to get it off the screen without power cycling the camera. We had to purchase a Sony remote to change the settings on our cameras (Sony remote # RM-EV100). Not a huge issue, but hey... The other thing that i hate is that "up" on the joystick is when you push it forward. I am used to more of an aviation style of pushing forward is down, and pulling back is up. Small issue, and maybe i just do not have much experience with this type of product. Again, not even close to a deal breaker, but it is a slight annoyance. I did have problems getting it to connect to the network, and connect to my cameras, but once i figured out the correct IP addresses, and the correct port number we were off and now it connects every time flawlessly. And very quick. (BTW the port for this particular Sony camera is 52381) Having said all of this, the controller works great, the controls are like butter, the joystick is very responsive, and there is even a knob for PTZ speed which is nice.

Our church recently purchased the Fomako PTZ NDI bundle, and it has been an absolute game-changer for our live streaming and media production. From installation to operation, this system has exceeded our expectations in every way. Crystal Clear Video Quality The 1080p HD resolution delivers a sharp, professional-grade image, even in our varied lighting conditions. The 20X optical zoom allows us to capture close-up shots of our pastor and worship team without losing clarity. Seamless NDI Integration The NDI capability makes it easy to connect the camera to our existing network. We can control and stream without extra capture cards, reducing our equipment needs while maintaining a smooth, lag-free broadcast. Smooth PTZ Controls The remote-control pan, tilt, and zoom functions are incredibly responsive. Whether we're adjusting shots manually or setting up presets for different segments of the service, the movements are fluid and precise. Easy Setup & User-Friendly Operation The bundle came with everything needed, and setup was straightforward. Even volunteers with minimal tech experience have been able to operate the system with ease. Reliable and Affordable Solution For the price, the Fomako PTZ NDI bundle offers incredible value. We compared several options, and this system gives us broadcast-quality performance without breaking the budget. We highly recommend this camera bundle for any church or ministry looking to elevate their live stream or in-house media production. It has helped us engage our congregation better than ever, both in-person and online. — Lifeway Church Media Team

This unit worked right out of the box. I plugged it into a poe router and it turned on a got an IP address without a problem. The instructions have to be downloaded but I didn't need them. Ive used ptz controllers before and they all work basically the same way. I gave it 4 stars because it great but not perfect. I really love that there is a power switch to turn it off when its not being used. Some controllers like PTZOptics don't have a switch and you have to unplug it. The controls for ptz speed as well as iris and focus control work flawlessly. These setting normally have to changed by logging into the camera or using the OSD menu. The joystick allows you to move in any direction. It allows you to pan and tilt simultaneously. PROS: Easy to setup. POE as well as Included power supply. RS 232/485/422 Zoom Rocker as well as zoom with joystick PTZ Controll Dial Power Switch Rubber keys are fully lit up. cameras can be added by the web interface as well as directly on the controller. Joystick is very accurate and moves smoothly. CONS: Buttons are made from rubber Calling presets require you hitting the call button then the preset number and then the enter key. Thats Too many key presses. PTZ Speed dial effects all cameras.

We’ve installed these with matching cameras and when used together, it’s a great inexpensive but useful combination for streaming and recording.

Love this controller. Works right out of the box.

The item works well connected all my NDI cameras, and I'm able to visually see output of the cameras. I love it.

we used an analog set up before this. What an upgrade! This thing is a Cadillac compared to our old one. Works very well.

Belle petite console, intuitive, assez facile à prendre en main. fonctions intéressantes, dommage de ne pas avoir un mode d'emploi en français, même celui en anglais reste assez simple

Preso per le controllare le PTZ della Fomako ma funziona anche con altre PTZ utilizzando i vari protocolli disponibili

The most difficult purchase I’ve made with Amazon. Happy for the choice . The product is basic but the tools are clear simply and intuitive. With its 255 preset and 4 different stream protocols the controller permits many choice. Its led display its very clear

FoMaKo NDI PTZ カメラFMK20UH NDIとの同時購入しました。 最初スイッチングハブ接続でのコントロールがうまく行かなかったのですが、サポートの素晴らしい説明でうまく行きました。 またトラッキングon、offをファンクションキーF1，F2に設定できたり色々とカスタムできそうです。 トラッキングon、offの設定もサポートから丁寧に教えてもらいました。 2台目のPTZカメラもコントローラーKC608 Proと相性が良いであろうFoMaKo製品を調達しようかと思ってます。
