AIDA Imaging PTZ3-X20L. Anyone have experience w/ this cam?

Thanks for clicking. I'm researching to add a third camera to a lecture hall. I'm still using a ATEM 1 M/E. I previously had two cameras with only 30fps/60fps and had to use Decimators to conform to 29.97fps. I believe this added a bit of delay which I had to compensate (195ms) with an audio processor to retain lip sync. I'm looking at adding a third camera. I'm not overly happy with the overall quality of the current camera. I can't afford to update them right now. I have a tracking camera, and a rear PTZ. I'm looking at adding an audience camera facing out from the front of the room. While looking for cameras that can to 29.97fps I found this AIDA PTZ. I'm not familiar with the brand. I am doing some research. The lone review on B&H mentions having problems getting the SDI to work with an ATEM TVS HD. Solved by using HDMI to SDI Mini Converter. Which is less than ideal. I don't prefer to buy another 60/30fps and a decimator. Though now I'm also worried that a different make of camera and no decimator will break my sync on that camera. So I guess I'm asking two questions. Does anyone have insight or thoughts on either?
