Create a Powerful, Precise and Versatile Production Experience

Introducing the PTZOptics SuperJoy, a PTZ camera joystick controller designed for smooth, efficient production workflows. The SuperJoy takes remote pan, tilt, and zoom camera operations to the next level in a simplified user interface with advanced controls for power users.

Streamlined, Real-Time Production

The SuperJoy offers an intuitive, tactile interface, simplifying and streamlining even the most complex production setups. The SuperJoy’s HDMI video output provides a 1080p video preview for any camera connected to the SuperJoy that has an RTSP video feed available for use. This HDMI video output is ideal for viewing cameras over a local area network. In this way, a SuperJoy controller can be set up anywhere on a network to gain PTZ camera controls with a low-latency, live video preview.

Ergonomic, rubberized controls and pressure-sensitive dials for precise, on-the-fly-tuning, with no OSD adjustments required
Control white balance, red and blue gain, shutter speed and more!

Custom Control Across a Variety of Cameras and Devices

The PTZOptics SuperJoy is a comprehensive solution supporting mix-and-match serial and network-based control for PTZ cameras of any generation.

Simultaneous pan, tilt and zoom control across IP, NDI® and serial cameras from multiple brands including PTZOptics, HuddleCamHD, Sony, BirdDog, Lumens, Marshall, NewTek, and Panasonic (newer Panasonic cameras that support Sony VISCA will work)
If it’s IP-controlled, chances are the SuperJoy can control it – cameras, lights, projector screens and more – using four customizable buttons
Powerful Super-Preset buttons are programmable to trigger synchronized multi-preset commands across up to four unique camera groups with up to seven cameras each, as well as a fifth group of up to 225 cameras

From Power Users to Novices, a Controller for Everyone

With three user-centered control modes designed to accommodate varying skill levels, the SuperJoy offers unparalleled flexibility for production teams of all backgrounds and experiences.

Use Basic and Basic Plus mode to limit functions to presets and single-camera control
Matrix mode enables operators to call presets across up to three cameras
Expert users can program custom buttons for production automation

New Custom Button

Take a new level of control over your production with a customizable joystick button. This button is conveniently located at the top of the joystick controller for quick access to your most used functions. This joystick button is fully customizable so you can choose if you want it to start recording in your video production software OR start auto-tracking on your currently selected camera.

Automatic Triggers

PTZOptics IP joystick controllers now support automatic triggers which can be used to trigger a command when switching a camera. Automatic Triggers are ideal for integrating your PT-JOY-G4 or PT-SUPERJOY-G1 joystick controllers with your video switcher or other production equipment. Use Automatic Triggers to automate your video production workflow to effortlessly queue up your next camera or prepare your next scene.
