Probably the Most Versatile Camera

You might not have seen the Z CAM E2 at these venues, but you've likely watched the stunning images captured by it.

Multiple Camera Synchronization

Z CAM has been widely adopted in many multiple camera applications worldwide due to its high sync precision, open API and reliability.

Z CAM EzLink Sync

  • All cameras are connected to a network switch for Z CAM EzLink Sync.
  • Once connected, one camera must be designated as the master, with the others set as slaves.
  • Z CAM EzLink ensures precise synchronization, maintaining a tolerance of no more than 0.5ms.

Z CAM PixelLink*

  • Z CAM PixelLink Sync (Master/Slave) requires all cameras to be connected in a daisy chain using Z CAM sync cables.
  • Cameras are interconnected using Cat 6 Ethernet cables.
  • Ensuring perfect line sync precision.

* Only available on Z CAM E2 model

Built in Gyroscope Sensor

IP Streaming is the Future

Z CAM supports a number of streaming protocols. Easily accessible through the built-in web client.

Open API & SDK

  • Full set open API.
  • Facilitates easier secondary development.
