The 4K Cam for the BlueROV2 prioritizes what actually matters underwater: low latency, excellent low-light performance, and accurate color.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you’re inspecting infrastructure, documenting marine life, surveying an aquaculture site, or exploring somewhere no one has gone before, the 4K Cam gives you a clearer view of what’s happening below the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt around the Sony IMX678 sensor, the 4K Cam delivers super sharp 4K video with spectacular low-light performance. It features a motorized zoom-focus lens with up to 2x optical zoom and a built-in tilt servo for camera angle adjustment. The sensor is paired with an image processor that supports H.264, H.265, H.265+, and MJPEG outputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"vc_column-inner\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_video_widget wpb_content_element vc_clearfix   vc_video-aspect-ratio-169 vc_video-el-width-100 vc_video-align-left\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_video_wrapper\"\u003e\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"4K Cam: the raddest 4K low-light ROV piloting camera\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VpKjw_TKAc8?feature=oembed\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"vc_column-inner\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_single_image wpb_content_element vc_align_center\"\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"wpb_wrapper vc_figure\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"vc_single_image-wrapper   vc_box_border_grey\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"770\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/bluerobotics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/4K-Cam_03_770x400.jpg\" class=\"vc_single_image-img attachment-full\" title=\"4K Cam_03_770x400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bluerobotics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/4K-Cam_03_770x400.jpg 770w, https:\/\/bluerobotics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/4K-Cam_03_770x400-300x156.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bluerobotics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/4K-Cam_03_770x400-768x399.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" style=\"margin-bottom: 16px; float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"vc_column-inner\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"vc_custom_heading font-windsor-bold\"\u003eLIVE!
