Sony RM-IP500 PTZ Camera Remote Control

Simple, ergonomic control of multiple PTZ cameras for production at live events and for content creation

This compact remote control features a high-quality joystick that makes panning, tilting, and zooming compatible remote-controlled PTZ cameras from Sony effortlessly adjustable with one hand. The zoom can also be controlled via the joystick or an additional toggle lever. Dedicated buttons and control keys simplify direct access to frequently used camera functions.

The RM-IP500 simplifies the setup of cost-effective multi-camera systems for creating content for a wide range of applications—from live events, convention centers, and broadcast studios to educational institutions and places of worship.

The PTZ speed can be adjusted from slow to fast to achieve more refined and professional-looking results. Up to 100*¹ combinations of camera perspectives and settings can be saved as presets. Trace Memory*¹ allows you to save a sequence of camera movements that can then be recalled repeatedly as needed.

Up to 100 compatible Sony BRC or SRG series cameras, as well as remote-controlled ILME-FR7 PTZ cameras, can be controlled over a standard IP network. Setup is simple: The controller automatically assigns IP addresses to the Sony PTZ cameras connected over the network and also labels each camera with a number.
