Our take on the OBSBOT Tail 2 PTZ Camera
The OBSBOT Tail 2 is a PTZ camera with AI tracking and a 1.5 inch sensor, suited to streamers who want a self-moving camera for a larger stage.
The tracked price is $1,088, the bottom of a $1,088 to $1,298 range across eight points from August 26 to October 12, 2026. That is the lowest tracked, so there is no reason to hold out for a better number. The listing gives 4K at 60fps, 1080p at 120fps and 5x optical zoom. It outputs over HDMI, SDI, USB-C and Ethernet, and supports SRT, RTMP and NDI. The head can rotate to vertical framing. This listing is the NDI Activated style. Rated 4.3 across 32 retailer ratings.
