Z CAM
Specialist in synchronised multi-camera capture
Cinema-grade imaging with built-in network synchronisation. From sport to immersive content, Z CAM cameras combine into synchronised arrays that film the same action from several viewpoints. The range also serves cinema shoots, with several sensor formats depending on the model.
Why Z CAM for multi-camera
EzLink: synchronisation built into the cameras
On compatible E2 Mark II cameras, EzLink synchronises the bodies through an Ethernet switch: one camera provides the reference for the others, with a tolerance stated by Z CAM of 0.5 ms or less. This capture is the foundation for multi-angle replay, bullet time, motion capture and volumetric capture, combined with the software suited to each application.
Built-in synchronisation
EzLink is a feature of compatible E2 Mark II cameras: synchronisation runs over the network, through an Ethernet switch.
Concrete applications
Multi-angle replay, bullet time, markerless motion capture, volumetric capture.
Project support
HoriCast helps define the project, choose the cameras and identify the people needed for integration.
Pro Cameras
E2 Mark II cinema bodies: Compact (Micro 4/3), Super 35 and Full Frame, up to 8K. Global Shutter, NDI® and PoE+ depending on the model.
Explore the rangePTZ Cameras
The P2-R1N series packs capabilities usually found on higher-priced cameras into a compact PTZ body: large sensors, long-range motorised optics, AI tracking and FreeD tracking output.

Application examples in broadcast and live production contexts.
Synchronised multi-camera applications
Multi-angle replay, motion capture and 3D reconstruction: explore what synchronised capture makes possible.
Virtual Production and XR studios
The Global Shutter bodies (E2-S6G Mark II in Super 35, E2-M4G Mark II in a compact form factor) are worth considering for LED stages, with the whole workflow tuned and synchronised: shutter, phase and wall refresh, real-time rendering engine.
For: XR studios, LED stages, augmented broadcast
Sports capture and live events
Global Shutter bodies avoid the jello effect on fast pans. NDI® streaming on selected models for integration into IP multi-camera workflows.
Multi-angle replay and action analysis →
For: Sports broadcasters, live producers, esports
Full-frame cinema production
The E2-F6 Pro and E2-F8 Mark II offer a full-frame sensor up to 8K with ZRAW and ProRes 422 HQ codecs for demanding cinema productions.
For: Cinematographers, short/feature film productions
IP multi-cam and onboard setups
PoE+ powering, open HTTP API control, compact form factor (E2N Mark II, E2-M4 Mark II, E2-M4G Mark II) for light streaming, drones, gimbals and onboard rigs.
