  • PTZOptics PT-JOY-G4 PTZ Camera Joystick Controller

    A Controller for All Production Setups
    Introducing the PTZOptics 4th Generation IP Joystick Controller. Compatible with most PTZ cameras operating serial or IP protocol, including Sony, the PT-JOY-G4 is a legacy-friendly controller designed to easily integrate into a wide array of existing production systems, and even allows users to switch between protocols with the touch of a button.


    Enhanced Setup Management

    A newly added web user interface will decrease your set up time, allowing you to get multiple cameras up and running in as little as five minutes! If you’re using the PT-JOY-G4 for different productions or sets, we’ve got you covered. Import and export settings for specific use cases or production environments.

    For network setup, the PT-JOY-G4 will dynamically obtain an IP address upon connection to your LAN. If your network is not able to supply DHCP addresses, you can assign a static IP address to the controller.


    Streamlined Production at Your Fingertips

    With an expanded LCD screen and a wide range of knobs for fine tuning, a single camera operator can easily:

    Operate cameras in basic, matrix and normal modes
    Access cameras and quickly recall preset locations
    Control white balance, red and blue gain, shutter speed and more!
    Use web-based and smartphone app control for added flexibility


    A Smart Acquisition for Any Production

    Backed by PTZOptics’ 2-year warranty, plus full support from PTZOptics’ technical team, the PT-JOY-G4 is an ideal choice for video production in schools, houses of worship and other broadcast and live streaming scenarios.


    New Custom Button

    Take a new level of control over your production with a customizable joystick button. This button is conveniently located at the top of the joystick controller for quick access to your most used functions. This joystick button is fully customizable so you can choose if you want it to start recording in your video production software OR start auto-tracking on your currently selected camera.


    Automatic Triggers

    PTZOptics IP joystick controllers now support automatic triggers which can be used to trigger a command when switching a camera. Automatic Triggers are ideal for integrating your PT-JOY-G4 or PT-SUPERJOY-G1 joystick controllers with your video switcher or other production equipment. Use Automatic Triggers to automate your video production workflow to effortlessly queue up your next camera or prepare your next scene.


    Unrivaled Warranties

    With robust warranties included standard on every product, you can trust PTZOptics solutions to deliver high performance from day one, and for many years to follow.

    The PT-JOY-G4 comes with a 2-year limited parts and labor warranty. PTZOptics stands by our promise to protect your investment by providing repairs or replacement products for the duration of your warranty.
