The Explore 100 and Explore 300 represent the next generation of Telycam’s Explore SE and Explore XE cameras, respectively, while the Explore 500 is the newest evolution of the previous top-of-the-line Explore model.

The Explore 300 and Explore 500 are equipped with a 4/3’’ sensor and 20x optical zoom, coupled with industry-leading Hybrid AF for exceptional low-light performance and fast, accurate autofocus. Both models also incorporate an OLPF (optical low-pass filter) lens to minimize moiré effects when shooting in front of LED walls, enhancing virtual production and digital content creation. Meanwhile, the Explore 100 combines a 1/1.8″ sensor with 30x optical zoom as a low-cost entry point to broadcast-grade PTZ capture.
