The Panasonic AW-RP120G is a sophisticated remote camera controller designed for broadcasting and production environments that require precise control over multiple pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras. This versatile controller offers an extensive range of features, making it a reliable choice for professionals in the field.

One of the key highlights of the AW-RP120G is its user-friendly interface. It incorporates a large, LCD touchscreen display that provides real-time information and control options for both novice and experienced operators. The layout is intuitive, enabling quick access to various settings without the need for complex configurations.
