Panasonic AW-UE150 Overview

By B&H Photo's
Versatile UHD 4K Imaging
Bring UHD 4K quality video to your production with the black Panasonic AW-UE150K UHD 4K 20x PTZ Camera from Panasonic.

Ned to know the focal length, it says "Focal Length 8.8 to 176mm" and also says "35mm Equivalent Focal Length 24.5 to 490mm" so if I need to consider the true focal length for this cam which one should I go with?
Asked by: Channel
The physical focal length of the lens is 8.8 to 176mm. However this camera has a 1" sensor which gives the lens an equivalent focal length of 24.5 to 490mm, which would tend to be the measurement people go by.

Asked by: Ian
Yes we sell Fiber Optical Modules. Panasonic does not make one themselves at this time but it is compatible with any SFP+ Fiber Optic Module. An example of one is the Ubiquiti Networks UF-MM-10G SFP+ Multi-Mode Fiber Module (2-Pack) BH #UBUFMM10G • MFR #UF-MM-10G
