The unit consists of a pan/tilt module and camera head and lens. The SRG300SE captures HD video in 720p, 1080i, or 1080p at up to 59.94. It features a 1/2.8" Exmor CMOS sensor providing low-light sensitivity of 1.4 lux. The camera comes with Sony's Wide-D for wide dynamic range, enhancing the image with View-DR, while XDNR provides digital noise reduction in both moving and still images.

The SRG300SE is suitable for use on a desk, mounted to a tripod, or you can mount it to a ceiling using the included brackets. The camera also features an Image Flip option, which simplifies setting up the camera when it is mounted upside down. It features remote control operation of pan, tilt, zoom, focus, iris, shutter speed, and gain.

Remote operation is a major component of the SRG300SE's design, and the camera supports VISCA control protocols as well as RS-232 and RS-422. You can program the camera with up to 16 preset positions, which is useful for repetitive events and productions. The small size and remote operation capabilities of the SRG300SE allow for placement where a manually operated camera and operator can not go.

Remotely control your BRC remote cameras with the RM-IP10 IP Remote Controller from Sony over an IP network. The RM-IP10 can control up to 112 BRC cameras using a combination of IP and serial communication, and up to five RM-IP10 controllers can operate on the same LAN.

The RM-IP10 operates on your LAN using its RJ45 port and works in a standard VISCA IP network, providing control for up to seven BRC cameras. It can also control cameras using RS-232 and RS-422 VISCA serial communication. The controller can store up to 16 preset combinations such as zoom, pan/tilt position, focus, and backlight to save time making camera moves and adjustments.

Available controls include a joystick for pan/tilt/zoom operations, knobs for brightness/white balance/focus, buttons for group/reset/backlight/autofocus/auto white balance, and seven camera-select buttons.

Included with the controller is a power supply, a terminal connector, and the Windows software needed to get started. Read more below about camera compatibility and computer requirements.
