"The OBSBOT Tail 2 is an excellent camera that has streamlined my workflow and reduced my equipment needs for events and conferences. Its optical zoom offers freedom in framing from a distance, while AI tracking keeps speakers in focus. With flexible control options via the Start app, desktop software, or on the camera itself, I can quickly adjust shots as needed. The image quality is outstanding, fitting seamlessly into a multi-camera setup, and the NDI functionality allows for lag-free feeds from anywhere, giving me the freedom to move around effortlessly."

VideoCol Service Case Study

"Using the Obsbot Tail 2 Cameras, I can work as a 1 man band video production company. The auto-tracking system works so well that I no longer need camera operators to follow the action on stage; the auto-tracking system does a great job of it for me. This saves the client a lot of money and gains me a lot of work because of the reduced cost, as well as the ease of carrying 3 small cameras in one case, reducing transport and storage costs. Set up and breakdown is very quick using a single Ethernet cable to each camera. I mount the cameras on sturdy monopod stands, which get them high enough up to go over audience heads if required and have a very small visual impact on the audience, much better than a large camcorder on a tripod."

Amaze Studios Live Production Case Study
Amaze Studios was founded in 1997 in Washington DC by Gary Cruz and his friends. Gary, the owner, initially served as the studio's video editor, while his partners included a musician and a 3D animation artist. When Gary moved to California, he took over the business. During the studio's early days, the primary focus was on photography, as video editing on computers was prohibitively expensive. When video became more accessible, Amaze Studios refocused on its passion for video production and began expanding its service offerings in alignment with the owner's personal journey. First, it was weddings, then cotillions (18th birthdays, theater events, etc).
