FAQs
Does the integrated auto-tracking require a separate licence or a separate computer?
No. Auto-tracking runs directly on the camera, with no external licence, server, or PC required. Settings can be adjusted using Canon’s control software or a hardware controller, and the system continues to operate even as network conditions vary.
Can auto tracking handle fast or unpredictable movement?
Yes. The combination of Hybrid AF and the enhanced pan-tilt drive helps the camera maintain stable tracking even when presenters move quickly or turn away. Response speed and framing behaviour can be tuned to match the event's style.
Can the camera still be controlled manually while auto tracking is active?
Yes. Manual input from a hardware controller, software panel or presets overrides tracking immediately. This allows operators to regain control for demonstrations or stage walk-ons without switching modes.
Does auto tracking work at long zoom ranges?
It does, though, like any PTZ system, it performs best with a clear view of the subject. The CR-N350’s 20x optical zoom and Hybrid AF give it enough stability for tracking at extended focal lengths in most lecture or conference spaces.
Can the CR-N350 output multiple streams at once?
Yes. With SDI, HDMI and IP outputs available simultaneously, you can feed a switcher, produce a vertical stream for social platforms and maintain a USB output for conferencing at the same time.
Is the CR-N350 suitable for mixed lighting environments?
It handles mixed light well thanks to its HDR image settings and built-in ND filter. The camera maintains colour consistency when switching between brighter and darker areas, which is useful in auditoriums with daylight spill.
Can the camera feed a hardware switcher and a streaming encoder simultaneously?
Yes. With SDI, HDMI, and IP outputs available simultaneously, you can send a 1080p or 4K feed to a switcher, run an IP stream for remote viewers, and still keep a USB output active for conferencing platforms.

The Buy Now Pay Later option comprises a 36 month loan following a six month deferral period.
During the six-month deferral period, it is possible to pay off the loan, either by way of a lump sum or in smaller amounts. If the loan is partially repaid within six months, the remaining interest will be adjusted to reflect the new balance. If the loan is fully repaid within the six-month deferral period, then no interest is payable, however, a £29 early settlement fee is payable in respect of repayments within these six months.
Following the six-month deferral period, Novuna Personal Finance will initiate a monthly direct debit payment for the remaining duration of the loan. Interest will be charged at a rate of 18.9% APR (representative) on outstanding balances (backdated to the first date of the loan). Novuna Personal Finance will send a reminder letter approximately one month before the six-month deferral period is due to elapse.
