The Sony BRC-Z330 is a sophisticated PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) camera that has gained popularity in various applications, including broadcasting, event production, and corporate video conferencing. One of its most striking features is its ability to deliver high-quality images through a 1/2.8-type Exmor CMOS sensor.
