Making Tracking and Using Loops to Increase Productivity and Simplify Workflows
It’s offering two cutting-edge add-on programs that to extend the canon CR-N700‘s abilities further, Canon goes above and beyond.
During presentations, conferences, and events, the auto-tracking tool is used
to automatically monitor speakers or other specified individuals. This technology guarantees excellent tracking capabilities by utilizing in-camera visual analysis, allowing for adaptable shooting options, and recording subjects from various perspectives.
On the other side, the Auto Loop program simplifies operations by automating the complex pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) staging travels that operators frequently perform during broadcasts or productions.
In scenarios like competitions, interviews, TV ads, and movies, this characteristic is very useful. Positioning, speed of motion, and pause duration may all have individual settings.
Good Tracking the Auto Track Application gives power
The auto-tracking program, which allows the camera to continually monitor speakers or other chosen subjects during commercial talks, lectures, and events, is one of the CR-N700’s notable characteristics.
The app provides amazing tracking capacity via the application of within-the-camera visual analysis, allowing shooting from a wide range of angles like the full body, the upper body, the shoulders-up, and various other perspectives.
while easily following the motion of subjects, whether slow or quick.
The Canon CR-N700’s powerful pan/tilt mechanism allows it to not just capture the typical image of living figures required for broadcast activities and lectures but additionally to easily catch individuals’ slow motion, creating high-quality video.
Besides, the application offers a wide range of change variables, as users have great control over their images thanks to composition, tracking sensitivity, and priority display area.
CONCLUSION
The Canon CR-N700 camera, which costs Rs 11,00,000 in India, it allows HDR recording in either HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) or PQ (Perceptual Quantization) formats to meet a variety of production requirements.
It also supports high-quality video recording in 4K/60P/4:2:2/10-bit format.
