Sony unveils 'world's first' robotic pan-tilt-zoom full-frame mirrorless camera
's tech with remote-controlled robotics. Called the FR7, it's the"world's first" pan-tilt-zoom full-frame interchangeable-lens camera with pan-tilt-zoom robotic technology, according to the company.
Priced at nearly $10,000 without a lens, it's designed for professional productions including reality shows, concerts, dramas, music videos and more. For instance, it could be mounted on dolly tracks, a crane or a tripod and remotely follow subjects around without getting in the way. It could also be fixed to a vehicle, with the pan-tilt-zoom capabilities giving the director more interesting angles and shots.
The FR7 looks a bit like Sony cut the back off an FX6, leaving the mount and small body fixed to a compact motorized system. It's designed to smoothly pan and tilt at speeds ranging from .02 to a rapid 60 degrees per second, while moving from plus or minus 170 degrees and -30 to 195 degrees . You can store up to 100 camera presents and control it using a web app or the optionalThe 10.
