Overview

Sony SRG-X120 is a discontinued remotely controlled PTZ camera with a 1/2.5-type Exmor R sensor, 12x optical zoom and RTSP, RTMP and SRT streaming. It reaches 4K with an optional licence and powers over a single PoE+ cable. The manufacturer has discontinued it, so Qatar lecture, meeting and school studio buyers should request a quote for a current equivalent or compatible replacement.

What the Sony SRG-X120 is and who it suits

The Sony SRG-X120 is a remotely controlled pan-tilt-zoom camera built for IP-based capture. It suits lecture rooms, meeting spaces and medical training rooms where a presenter needs to be framed from a distance without a camera operator on site. Sony has discontinued this model, so this page serves organisations that already own it, buyers comparing it with newer cameras, and anyone looking for a replacement.

Image quality, zoom and movement

A 1/2.5-type Exmor R CMOS sensor with approximately 8.5 million effective pixels sits behind a 12x zoom lens, with a focal length of 4.4 mm to 52.8 mm and an aperture of F2.0 to F3.7. At the wide end the horizontal viewing angle is approximately 70°, and minimum illumination is 1.6 lux at 50 IRE with high-sensitivity off. Pan reaches 300°/s and tilt 126°/s at maximum speed, while Picture Freeze Preset holds a steady image as the camera moves between positions.

Pan range: ±170°, with tilt from +90° to -20°
Presets: 256 via CGI and 100 via VISCA
Slow mode: available for pan and tilt, for gentle movements

Streaming, NDI|HX and integration

The camera outputs 4K through HDMI and IP once the optional 4K licence is active; without it, HD outputs include 3G-SDI, HDMI and IP. It supports H.264 and H.265 encoding, up to three simultaneous streams and five clients. Streaming runs over RTSP, RTMP and SRT, and RTMP and SRT need firmware V3.00. NDI|HX works through a licence sold separately, and the REA-C1000 Edge Analytics Appliance can be paired with the camera to track a speaker automatically and produce a cut-out image. The Picture Setting File feature applies one set of settings to several cameras from a web browser on a laptop or PC.

Where it fits in Qatar

University lecture capture: a lecture theatre in Education City recorded from a ceiling position, with a separate microphone added for audio.
Meeting rooms linked abroad: a boardroom in West Bay or Lusail streaming over an IP network to partner teams in other countries.
Clinical training: a training room at a hospital or clinic in Doha, where a procedure is recorded and reviewed remotely through a web browser.
School studios: a private school in Al Wakrah building live productions with NDI-enabled equipment once the NDI|HX licence is in place.

What to plan before ordering

The operating range is 0 to 40 °C, so mount the camera in an air-conditioned room, away from windows and direct sunlight, because Qatar summers can push conditions well beyond that range. The camera draws 25.5 W maximum from DC 12V or a single PoE+ cable, and the supplied AC adaptor should be checked against Qatar's 240 V, 50 Hz supply before installation. At approximately 1.8 kg, it comes with two ceiling brackets, a wire rope and a tripod screw hole, and its mounting angle must stay within ±15°. A free site survey from SmartRooms Qatar helps confirm the camera-to-stage distance, bracket fixings and cable routes before work begins.

Because the SRG-X120 is discontinued, request a quote from SmartRooms Qatar for a current equivalent or a compatible replacement. Our team usually provides a quotation within one working day, and we deliver to all eight municipalities of Qatar.

Questions about SRG-X120

Is the Sony SRG-X120 still sold by Sony?

No. Sony has discontinued the SRG-X120, so new projects should target a current equivalent. Request a quote from SmartRooms Qatar for a replacement with similar zoom and IP streaming features, and our team will confirm the match against your control system and streaming setup. Organisations that already own the camera can also ask us which replacement fits alongside their existing units.

Does the SRG-X120 shoot 4K out of the box?

Not by default. 4K shooting, with output at 3840x2160 over HDMI and IP, requires an optional 4K licence. Without it, the camera works at HD resolutions such as 1920x1080, which is enough for many classrooms and meeting rooms in Qatar. The pre-installed software also needs licence keys for some functions, so confirm which licences your use requires before approving a purchase order.

Is it suitable for a lecture theatre at a Qatari university?

Yes, for lecture capture where a presenter moves across the front of the room. The 12x zoom lens covers the full stage at its wide end, with a horizontal viewing angle of approximately 70°, and tight shots at the tele end. Presets, with 256 available via CGI and 100 via VISCA, let staff return to a set framing quickly. Pairing the camera with the REA-C1000 Edge Analytics Appliance enables automatic speaker tracking and cut-out images.

How does the camera perform in dimly lit lecture halls?

Sony rates minimum illumination at 1.6 lux at 50 IRE with a 1/30 second shutter, F2.0 and high-sensitivity off. Turning high-sensitivity on raises gain up to +48 dB, which helps in dimmer rooms. Manual gain, exposure and white balance controls are available to match mixed lighting. Results depend on the room's lighting design, so test the space during a free site survey before fixing the camera position.

Can the camera be powered over a single network cable?

Yes. The camera accepts PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at compliant) and draws 25.5 W maximum, so one network cable can carry power, video output and control signals. Alternatively, it runs on DC 12V (10.8 to 13.2 V) with the supplied AC adaptor. Confirm that your switch port supports IEEE 802.3at before ordering, and check the switch's PoE+ power budget if you plan to connect several cameras to the same unit.

Can the camera stream to an online platform or a control room?

Yes. It supports RTSP, RTMP and SRT streaming over an IP network, and images can be reviewed remotely in a web browser. RTMP and SRT require firmware V3.00, so check the firmware version on your unit before planning a live stream. Audio can accompany the video from an optional microphone available separately, which suits a school sending a live assembly to a second hall.

Does it integrate with NDI-based production software?

It supports NDI|HX, but only with a licence sold separately. Once licensed, it can be configured alongside other networked NDI-enabled devices, which suits a school studio in Al Wakrah or a training centre in Doha that builds live productions from several sources. Ask for the NDI licence and firmware requirements to be stated in the quotation, and confirm that your production PC and network can handle the video traffic.

Can it be ceiling-mounted, and what should I plan for?

Ceiling mounting is supported, and the box includes two ceiling brackets, a wire rope and an HDMI cable fixing plate. The mountable angle is less than ±15°, so the mounting surface must be level. Allow for a minimum object distance of 80 mm at wide zoom and 400 mm at tele. For a lecture hall in Lusail with a high ceiling, a free site survey helps confirm bracket fixings and cable routes before installation is planned.

Is it suitable for a window-facing room in summer?

Not without precautions. The operating temperature is 0 to 40 °C, and storage ranges from -20 to +60 °C. Qatar summer temperatures often exceed 45 °C, and sunlight through glass can push a room's temperature well above outdoor readings. Install the camera in an air-conditioned room away from glass and direct sun, and avoid closed cabinets or unventilated ceiling voids where heat can build up.

How do we keep settings consistent across several classrooms?

Use the Picture Setting File function. It applies the same settings to multiple cameras through a web interface on a laptop or PC, which speeds up set-up across a school, and it requires firmware V2.00. For example, a private school in Al Khor fitting out several new classrooms could configure one camera and apply those settings to the others, keeping framing and colour consistent from room to room.

Can we buy it through an LPO or a government tender?

Yes. SmartRooms Qatar accepts purchase orders (LPOs) and government tenders, including Monaqasat, and payment can be made by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order. For a ministry or public body buying several PTZ cameras, the quotation can be prepared against the tender specification. Because the SRG-X120 is discontinued, the quotation can cover a current equivalent or compatible replacement for evaluation.
