Choosing between Sony BRC-AM7 and Panasonic AW-UE160

Choosing between Sony BRC-AM7 and Panasonic AW-UE160

Hey everyone,

My company is looking to invest in some new PTZ cameras, and I’ve been tasked with finding the best fit for our workflow.

Our baseline requirements are 4K50p support, NDI capabilities, and robust Auto-Tracking/Auto-Framing. After narrowing down the options, I’ve landed on two main contenders: the Sony BRC-AM7 and the Panasonic AW-UE160.

Given the differences between Panasonic’s server-based tracking approach and Sony’s built-in Edge AI, I’d love to get some real-world feedback. Has anyone deployed either of these in production yet? Which would you recommend for a long-term investment? Thanks!
