Hybrid Zoom & Autofocus
With 5x optical and 12x hybrid zoom, Tail 2 captures distant subjects clearly without sacrificing image quality. The all-pixel PDAF system ensures fast, precise autofocus, supported by features like Foreground Focus and Face Focus for consistent clarity.

Pro Connectivity
Tail 2 offers robust output options including HDMI, USB-C, 3G-SDI, IP streaming, and NDI HX3 for seamless integration into professional workflows. RS-232 control and mic/line inputs expand its compatibility with broadcast and studio environments.

Gesture Control
Control the camera hands-free using intuitive gestures to start tracking, zoom, or begin recording. This feature is especially useful for presenters, streamers, or creators who need fluid control without touching any devices.

Vertical Shooting
