Using an included IR remote control you can adjust pan, tilt, and zoom positions, as well as fine-tune other settings.

Is there a ceiling mount that is unobtrusive for the purpose of teaching painting live in a studio with a class in attendance?

The huddle cam ceiling mount is unobtrusive. The camera would sit on the platform of the mount and a poll would be attached to the mount.

question

Is there a free compatible software to control this camera?
Asked by: Nienscecc P.
We also, offer a free control software on our website or you can use the one from Rocosoft. It does require a DB9 to USB adapter attached to the included RS-232 to DB9 cable. You may want to consider DB9 extension cabling available from B&H.

I understand the IR Remote Control can go 35 feet, is there any way of extending that either IR or wired to 100 feet?
Asked by: Ronald
There are Universal IR extenders out there that should work. The following https://bhpho.to/2YKDmSo should provide the desired result when paired with proper extensions, which you can find under the Accessories for the illustrated product.

How is the audio with this camera? do you need to buy separate output speakers or you get horrible echo or feedback?
Asked by: Jake
This camera is meant to be paired with a separate microphone. A Boundary USB Mic such as B&H # MXAC404 would be a great option to pair with this camera. https://bhpho.to/2SfQJmG
