Full-HD remote camera that enables high-quality video production even in dark environments

The AW-HE145 achieves high sensitivity of F9/2000lx with its 1.0-type MOS sensor, and can produce high-quality video even during low light applications as stage events or church services..

The HE145 operation mechanism is the same as with high-end Panasonic PTZ models, so the operating performance of the pan/tilt and zoom is smooth and accurate, allowing you to shoot without stress.

It is equipped with an optical 20x zoom and horizontal 75.1° wide-angle lens to realize flexible video production.

Integration into the NDI® Ecosystem

The AW-HE145W/K can be upgraded to an NDI®|HX compatible model with the purchase of a license. Highly efficient NDI®|HX compatibility enables high-quality video to be encoded and transmitted in real-time and input signals to be directly sent to a switcher without the need for an IP decoder.

After purchasing an NDI®|HX license, the license can be activated using the “Activation Function” of the free-to-download EasyIP Setup Tool Plus software (supported from Ver. 1.3.6 or later).

^{NDI® is a protocol developed by NewTek, Inc. that supports IP video production workflow.}
^{NDI® is a registered trademark of NewTek, Inc. in the United States and other countries.}
^{In this instance, NDI®|HX is used to indicate high efficiency low bandwidth NDI®|HX.}

Optical Low Pass Filter (OLPF) Upgrade

Panasonic is offering an integrated Optical Low Pass Filter (OLPF) upgrade to its AW-HE145 model. This upgrade addresses moiré which is a huge challenge producers and creators are experiencing with LED walls. Moiré is the noticeable contrast between the light of the image and the darkness of the gap between LEDs. The OLPF upgrade prevents the high frequency information from passing and smooths out the total surface area. This process is done optically and requires a change to the existing lens in the camera. Please contact your local authorized Panasonic Broadcast & ProAV partner.

High-Quality Full-HD 60p/50p Shooting

Full-HD output and 59.94p/50p shooting achieve extremely smooth video, even in live sports and other environments containing rapid movement.

_{*1: Native output.}
_{*2: It denotes "1080/23.98p over 59.94i".}

Direct Broadcast via RTMP / RTMPS

RTMP / RTMPS (Real-Time Messaging Protocol) is supported by the AW-HE145 to enable direct upload of video to live-streaming services such as YouTube and Facebook Live. This means a live stream can be broadcast directly from the camera.

Night Mode Support

Equipped with Night Mode for infrared shooting. The use of IR rays in low-light situations enables shooting in situations that would normally be difficult, such as when capturing wildlife (image output is black and white).

HDR (HLG) Support

The camera supports HDR (High Dynamic Range) to prevent blown-out highlights and blocked-up shadows and enable picture quality close to that of the naked eye. Conforms to BT.2020.

^{* The display color space does not completely comply with BT.2020. The color balance is shifted to display according to the BT.2020 color gamut.}

AW-RP150 Connection for Large-Scale Production Systems

IP connection from the Remote Camera Controller AW-RP150 through a HUB (switching hub) enables control of up to 200 x AW-HE145 units. Furthermore, a single AW-HE145 camera can be controlled from up to 5 x AW-RP150 units.

Tally LED Limit

This is a setting that does not turn on the tally lamps of cameras installed on stages at events, especially concert halls and stages and prevents distracting the performers and allows for more natural filming. The tally indicator on the controller lights up so that the cameraperson is aware of which camera's video is being used.

Multiple Interfaces Support

A wide range of outputs are supported: 3G-SDI, HDMI and IP.

Useful Software for Simplified Workflow

Compatible with a wide range of software, including the free-to-download PTZ Control Center software and our Auto Tracking Software (90 day free trial available for download). This software will simplify the workflow of the PTZ camera shooting and reduces the burden of operation and management.
