Datavideo BC-15CN

The Datavideo BC-15CN is a compact yet powerful 4K POV camera designed for professional broadcast, live production, esports, corporate AV, education, and streaming environments. Combining a high-performance 1/2.3-inch CMOS sensor with native NDI support, the BC-15CN delivers exceptional image quality, flexible installation possibilities, and seamless integration into modern IP-based production workflows.

Despite its remarkably small footprint, the BC-15CN captures stunning 4K video at up to 60 frames per second, ensuring crisp details, natural color reproduction, and smooth motion rendering. Its discreet box-style design allows the camera to be mounted in locations where traditional cameras may be too large or visually intrusive, making it an ideal choice for studios, lecture halls, houses of worship, sports venues, esports productions, and creative broadcast applications.

The camera features an interchangeable CS-mount lens system that provides users with complete creative flexibility. Native CS-mount lenses can be installed directly, while C-mount lenses are supported through the included adapter ring. This versatility allows users to tailor the field of view and visual characteristics to suit specific production requirements, from wide-angle venue coverage to detailed close-up shots.

Built for modern network-based production, the BC-15CN supports NDI connectivity for low-latency video transport across standard Ethernet infrastructures. In addition to NDI, the camera supports SRT and RTMP(S) streaming protocols, enabling direct integration with a wide range of live streaming, cloud production, and content distribution workflows. Combined with Datavideo’s production ecosystem, the BC-15CN becomes a highly flexible solution for both local and remote productions.

Professional image controls ensure the camera performs reliably across a wide variety of environments. Features including Wide Dynamic Range processing, digital noise reduction, configurable gamma adjustments, advanced white balance settings, and manual exposure controls allow operators to optimize image quality for every shooting scenario. The integrated IR-cut filter further enhances image performance under changing lighting conditions.

Installation is simplified through Power over Ethernet support, enabling both power and network connectivity through a single cable. Built-in tally lights clearly indicate program status during multi-camera productions, while physical control buttons on the rear panel provide fast access to camera settings without requiring additional controllers. Compatibility with Datavideo RMC-300 series controllers and the BC View Assist application provides additional flexibility for local and remote camera management.

Whether deployed as a POV camera, specialty camera, streaming camera, or discreet production camera, the BC-15CN combines professional 4K imaging, powerful streaming capabilities, IP workflow integration, and flexible lens options into a compact platform built for demanding professional video productions.
