Telycam has once again raised the bar for premium camera performance at remarkable pricing with its new Explore XE 4K PTZ camera. Featuring a 1-inch Sony sensor, phase detection auto-focus (PDAF) and 20x optical zoom, the new Explore XE offers stellar quality and advanced features in a model tailored for the connectivity and budget requirements of small and mid-sized houses of worship.
Explore XE features the same sensor, optics and advanced auto-focus that earned its broadcast sibling Explore camera a 2025 NAB Show Product of the Year Award. Explore XE’s large 1-inch sensor enables spectacular video quality and excels in low-light conditions, capturing sharp detail with minimal noise. Its superior light sensitivity, dynamic range and shallow depth-of-field capabilities combine to enable stunning visuals with exceptional contrast and clarity. Advanced PDAF provides accurate, lightning-fast auto-focus with minimal focus hunting, keeping subjects in focus even in fast-paced environments.
Explore XE features a flexible array of outputs. 4K video at 60 fps can be output over HDMI or NDI® HX3, with 4K at 30 fps available over USB Type-C. Meanwhile, a 3G-SDI interface outputs 1080p60 video scaled from the 4K image.
A built-in variable ND filter and threads for external ND filters allow the Explore XE to adapt easily to various lighting conditions. Additional key features include native AI-powered auto-tracking; local recording to a microSD card; dual tally lights; and POE+ support.
“Many houses of worship have been delighted by the impeccable quality, superior auto-focus and rich functionality of our flagship Explore camera, but don’t need connectivity such as 12G-SDI and SFP+ that are oriented towards broadcasters,” said Telycam co-founder Jenny Liu. “Explore XE offers them all of Explore’s core benefits at a price that’s accessible to an even wider range of churches.”
