Boasting exceptional full-frame detail, the Panasonic AW-UB50 provides cine-style capture in a compact, modular form suitable for gimbal and drone work, broadcast, live streaming, vlogging, and cinema production. Its versatile design integrates with Panasonic PTZ cameras and supports modern IP workflows, making it ideal for multi-camera setups.
24.2MP Full-Frame MOS Sensor
Equipped with a 24.2-megapixel full-frame MOS sensor, the AW-UB50 delivers high-resolution imagery with rich color fidelity. The sensor supports a wide dynamic range of 14+ stops in V-Log, preserving details in highlights and shadows for cinematic visuals, even in challenging lighting conditions.
Leica L Lens Mount
The camera uses a Leica L-mount, providing access to a wide variety of full-frame lenses for flexible shooting options. This enables professional optical control and cinematic depth-of-field effects.
Panasonic PTZ Integration
Using common IP protocols, the AW-UB50 can seamlessly integrate with Panasonic PTZ cameras. This allows centralized control via a single remote panel, live switcher, or controller, streamlining multi-camera productions.
AW-UE160 Color Compatibility
The AW-UB50 is color-matched with the AW-UE160 4K PTZ camera, ensuring consistent color profiles across different camera setups for professional multi-camera productions.
Multiple Interfaces
Connectivity options include 3G-SDI output, HDMI Type A, TC in/out, genlock input, LAN, USB-C, 3.5mm microphone input, and headphone output. The PoE+ LAN port supports simultaneous power, video, and control over a single cable, simplifying cabling for live or remote setups.
NDI HX2 Support
The camera supports NDI HX2, enabling IP-based video streaming and easy integration into networked NDI workflows. This allows for scalable live production without heavy SDI infrastructure.
Real-Time Autofocus and Tracking
Advanced face, iris, and body detection autofocus ensures sharp, real-time subject tracking, making the camera ideal for live events, streaming, and dynamic shooting conditions.
Compact, Lightweight Design
With dimensions under 10cm in height, width, and depth (excluding lens) and a weight of approximately 585g (body only), the AW-UB50 is highly portable and ideal for gimbals, drones, and space-constrained installations.
Flexible Recording Options
Supports UHD 6K24, DCI 4K30, UHD 4K60, and FHD capture in multiple codecs including H.265/HEVC and H.264/AVC, providing high-quality output for broadcast and online streaming.
V-Log and Creative Modes
V-Log provides wide dynamic range capture, while creative video modes and exposure control features allow professional cinematography workflows, including tethered photo shooting via LUMIX Tether for Multicam.
Planned IP Transmission Standards Support
Future support is planned for IP transmission protocols like RTMPS and SRT, enabling robust, secure streaming for remote production.
