Telycam Vision+ 4N PTZ Cameras Improve Handball Training Recording

Telycam Vision+ 4KN 30x PTZ Cameras Enhance Handball Training Recording

Telycam Vision+ 4KN 30x PTZ Cameras Enhance Handball Training Recording Yushui No.1 High School Gymnasium, China At Yushui No.1 High School, the indoor gymnasium hosts handball training sessions for a large number of students. The school wanted a high-quality video solution to efficiently record and live-stream classes, especially in a multi-camera environment. After evaluation, the school selected Telycam Vision+ 4KN 30x PTZ cameras, integrated alongside other professional cameras to create a seamless multi-camera workflow. Precise Close-Ups and Wide Coverage Three Vision+ 4KN PTZ cameras were strategically positioned: two focused on capturing close-up shots of players and coaches, and one covering the entire gym. The 30x optical zoom allows operators to capture fine details — hand movements, ball handling, and goal shots — without physically moving the camera. Precise Color Control and Stable Image Quality The Vision+ 4KN supports intelligent automatic color balance as well as finely adjustable manual color settings. Under varying lighting conditions — whether front-lit or backlit — it delivers consistent, accurate colors and clear image quality. This ensures that students and remote viewers enjoy a uniform and reliable learning experience. Easy Setup with NDI The Vision+ 4KN cameras support NDI network transmission, enabling video, control, and power over a single Ethernet cable. This simplifies installation, reduces cabling complexity, and makes the system easier for staff to operate. Efficient and Versatile Workflow With preset positions and network-based control, a small team can operate multiple cameras efficiently. The Vision+ 4KN’s flexibility allows it to serve as both a close-up and wide-angle camera, complementing other cameras in the multi-camera setup. Thanks to the Telycam Vision+ 4KN 30x PTZ cameras, Yushui No.1 High School was able to record and live-stream handball training with professional-quality footage, maintaining color consistency and seamless integration across multiple cameras.

Telycam PTZ Cameras Save Space and Enhance Team Dynamics at Red Hills Church Needing to regain valuable seating space for worship attendees in their auditorium, Red Hills Church in Newberg, Oregon switched their video productions from using manually operated cameras to Telycam PTZ cameras. The results exceeded the church’s expectations, delivering both practical and team-bonding benefits beyond their original goals. The Goals Red Hills Church hosts approximately 600 people across three worship services every Sunday. With the auditorium of the century-old building holding just 250 people, space is at a premium. To accommodate their growing attendance, the church has overflow rooms not only within their main facility, but also in separate buildings they own on the same block. Live video of each service is distributed from the auditorium to TVs in each overflow space. We don’t publicly livestream our services, but we put a lot of energy and passion into creating a really good video experience for in-person attendees in different rooms or buildings on our campus. We also record and edit those productions for posting on YouTube and social media. Chris HahnProduction Director at Red Hills Church The church had been using high-end DSLR cameras for their productions, with a volunteer operator at each one. With the auditorium already at capacity, the amount of space these cameras required was no longer viable. “Each camera position and operator took up the space of six seats, but we needed to maximize seating,” Hahn explained. “Our main motivation for switching to PTZ cameras was to provide the same high-quality production experience but without taking up so much footprint.” The Solution: Telycam Vision+ Series Hahn evaluated multiple PTZ camera options, including the Telycam cameras recommended to him by reseller Mid-Valley Media. Impressed by what he saw, Hahn decided to go beyond his initial plan. “Originally we were going to buy one PTZ camera and put it at the back of the room as a static shot,” he said. “However, as we looked at the Telycam cameras and controller and watched some videos, we realized this could be really fun for our volunteers to run and for them to express themselves artistically.” Red Hills Church purchased three Telycam Vision+ N3 PTZ cameras – two with 20x optical zoom, and one with 30x optical zoom as the main camera for following their worship leaders and presenters. The cameras are controlled with a Telycam V-Joy+ AT PTZ controller, with SDI output from the cameras routed to a Blackmagic ATEM Production Studio 4K switcher. A Blackmagic ATEM Mini Pro then combines the program output from the switcher with ProPresenter graphics content, while an Epiphan LiveScript system applies live captioning in response to modern audiences wanting to both read and hear the messaging. The result is distributed over SDI to displays in other locations within the facility. Two Hollyland Mars transmitter/receiver sets send the live production to the overflow areas in the separate buildings. The Results Wall-mounting the Telycam cameras and controlling them remotely from the AV production booth has delivered Red Hills Church’s desired space savings while also expanding creative freedom. “They have not only given us the space we needed, but also allowed us to be more expressive with the way we actually produce the programming,” said Hahn. The Vision+ cameras and V-Joy+ controller have also eliminated difficulties the volunteers had with their previous DSLR cameras. “DSLRs aren’t like broadcast cameras that have handle controls for focus or zoom,” explained Hahn. “You have to reach up and manually adjust zoom on the body of the DSLR, then manually adjust focus. That was really frustrating for our operators as it caused vibration in the shot, and was just uncomfortable to use. With the Telycam PTZ system we have one-touch auto-focus, and zooming in and out is just twisting a knob on the controller. It’s very easy.” Hahn also praises the Telycam cameras’ visual performance. “They respond well in low light, the exposure works really well, and the color consistency between all three cameras is great. We know that when we dial in our white balance, they’re all going to match. We don’t have to keep putting up a card and dealing with idiosyncrasies of different lens lengths and color shifts.” Unexpected Benefits While the technical and practical benefits of the Telycam camera system already made the transition worthwhile, it has also delivered interpersonal benefits for the church’s team of volunteers. “The way we were set up previously, our camera operators were in various parts of the auditorium, and we communicated with them via wireless headsets,” said Hahn. “Now with the switch to PTZ cameras, the entire team can sit together in the production booth, communicate directly, and see what all the cameras are doing at once. It’s actually changed the dynamic of our team, as we don’t have volunteers who feel separated on the other side of the room. That’s benefited our productions, and has been huge for us for team building.” The ease-of-use of the cameras and controller have also enhanced the volunteer experience. “I’m all about trying to create a technology stack that’s really easy for my volunteers so they can feel like they’re participating in the worship service, not just doing a volunteer role,” said Hahn. “The way the PTZ cameras work with the Telycam control surface, letting us dial in presets during early rehearsal and then with one person creatively controlling three different shots, lets the operator become a key part of the experience.” Hahn envisions Red Hills Church’s Telycam deployment growing with their ministry. “The V-Joy+ controller supports up to seven cameras,” he noted. “We’ve talked about adding a fourth camera in the future, or adding a second controller so a second operator can be controlling another set of cameras at the same time. We love that it’s an ecosystem that allows us to grow into more if we need to.” Download You May Also Like Contact Telycam Sales Inquiries sales@telycam.com Call Us +86-755-33275155 Linkedin-in Facebook-f Youtube Tiktok Instagram

Telycam Vision+ Improves Keizer Government Meeting Broadcasts

Telycam Vision+ Improves Keizer Government Meeting Broadcasts

Telycam Vision+ PTZ Cameras Improve Quality of Government Meeting Broadcasts for Keizer City Television As the government access broadcaster for the City of Keizer, Oregon, K23 TV (Keizer City Television) plays an important role in connecting city officials with the community’s citizens. Broadcasting and streaming from council chambers in the Keizer City Hall, the channel – operated by Ambition Pictures – provides live coverage of city council and other municipal activities including planning commission, transportation and parks advisory board sessions. The Goals In the summer of 2025, KeizerTV set out to replace and improve upon its aging, first-generation NDI PTZ cameras. “At KeizerTV we do our best to maintain a high level of production for everything we do, to give our viewers an optimal experience,” said Phillip Wade, Producer at KeizerTV. “Our existing cameras were starting to have issues such as focus drift, but we also wanted to improve our overall quality to meet our high standards.” Phillip’s quality goals included increasing the visual fidelity captured by the cameras. “The resolution of our existing cameras was 1920×1080 HD, but we wanted better color reproduction, exposure and sharpness,” he explained. “Being able to get better color and exposure in our council chambers improves the overall production quality.” Other key goals for the upgrade included increasing the number of cameras for more comprehensive coverage, and greater optical zoom range to allow better close-ups across the council chamber space. The Solution: Telycam Vision+ Series On the recommendation of reseller Mid-Valley Media, Phillip evaluated Telycam’s Vision+ N3 cameras with 30x optical zoom, and found that they delivered everything the station wanted. The city purchased and deployed four of the cameras, going live with them in late August 2025. The city council chambers feature a forward-facing curved dais at the front of the room seating seven participants, with smaller offshoots at each side seating additional participants. Two Telycam cameras at the back of the room capture close-up and wide shots of people on the main dais, while the other two cameras are positioned at the sides of the room to capture people seated on the offshoot wings. The side cameras also cover the area where members of the public present or speak during city meetings. The cameras are connected to a Vizrt TriCaster TC1 Pro production switcher in an IP-based workflow using the NDI HX3 connectivity standard. In addition to being broadcast on television via Comcast, the output of the TriCaster is also streamed live on the city’s Facebook and YouTube channels in both English and Spanish. The Spanish streams are created by sending the NDI feed of the TriCaster’s program output to another room where it is translated by interpreters, with the Spanish audio translation mixed in with a TriCaster Mini. Taking Control KeizerTV initially controlled the pan, tilt and zoom of the Telycam cameras through the TriCaster TC1, but found it cumbersome to do so through the same control surface they were using for switching. “The TriCaster control surface has an integrated joystick, but it’s not positioned ergonomically for camera control,” Phillip explained. “You have to reach across all the other buttons on the panel to get to the joystick, and press two buttons on the other side of the panel to activate which camera you want. It was awkward, which delayed getting the subject into frame.” Preferring to instead use a separate, dedicated controller just for camera selection and movement, Phillip added a Telycam V-Joy+ AT controller to their installation. “It’s important for us to be able to quickly select a camera and move it, and the Telycam controller lets us do that efficiently.” The Results The Vision+ N3 cameras have met all of KeizerTV’s objectives and expectations. “We’re very happy with the quality of the video they produce,” said Phillip. “I also appreciate being able to manually set the aperture of the camera. That gives us some control of the depth of field, which makes the footage look and feel higher end.” Wade also praises the speed and precision of the Telycam cameras’ auto-focusing. “The cameras adjust very quickly,” he explained. “When I move the camera position, it’s already in focus by the time I’m ready to cut to that camera.” “We’re very pleased with the Telycam cameras,” Phillip concluded. “They do a fantastic job.” Download Contact Telycam Sales Inquiries sales@telycam.com Call Us +86-755-33275155 Linkedin-in Facebook-f Youtube Tiktok Instagram
