Datavideo PTR-10 MKII Robotic Pan and Tilt Head

The Datavideo PTR-10 MK II Robotic Pan Tilt Head brings professional PTZ-style remote control functionality to standard non-PTZ cameras, transforming traditional camera setups into fully controllable remote production systems. Designed for cameras weighing up to 8 lb, it delivers smooth, precise pan, tilt, and zoom control while maintaining compatibility with a wide range of broadcast and production workflows.

More than just a motorised head, the PTR-10 MK II integrates seamlessly with PTZ control ecosystems, allowing operators to manage camera movement, zoom, and focus via VISCA, DVIP, RS-422, RS-232, or IR remote control. It also supports lens control via LANC and other protocols, making it highly adaptable across Sony, Canon, Panasonic, and JVC camera systems.

The unit can be mounted on standard tripod legs, or installed on walls or ceilings using optional brackets, making it suitable for studio, live event, and fixed installation environments. It also supports video pass-through to external monitors, switchers, and control systems such as the RMC-180 series and RMC-300A, enabling full integration into professional broadcast workflows.

Built with a robust aluminium chassis, the PTR-10 MK II includes a built-in tally light, LED status indicators, selectable D-Tap power output for cameras and accessories, and a 1/4"-20 mounting plate for secure camera attachment. Its flexible power and control options make it a compact yet powerful solution for remote-controlled production setups.
