Ikan International PT4500W Professional 15" High Bright Teleprompter with 3G-SDI Widescreen Monitor

Ikan Professional 15" High Bright Teleprompter with 3G-SDI Widescreen Monitor PT4500W

The Ikan PT4500W is a professional 15" high bright teleprompter with a 3G-SDI widescreen monitor, for broadcast applications and professional studios. The lightweight aluminium teleprompter has several 3/8"-16 and 1/4"-20 points for mounting to a tripod or pedestal. The American made 70/30 coated glass reflects 70% of the light, so the presenter reads the script while the camera behind it records without capturing the reflection; it is readable from up to 17 ft (5.18 m). A rail allows the setup to be offset by up to 7" for balancing, and three camera riser plates plus a split counterweight (5 lb or 2.5 lb) accept a wide range of cameras.

The 15" widescreen monitor (1920 x 1080, 1000 nits, 178° viewing angle) has 3G-SDI, HDMI and VGA inputs; its OSD adjusts contrast, brightness, backlight, tint, chroma, sharpness and individual RGB channels, and the aspect ratio can be set to 16:9, 4:3, full or automatic. An image flip button flips the picture horizontally and vertically. The built-in tally (red, green and yellow with a compatible switcher) has two lights, on top and on the front of the monitor, selected with a toggle switch depending on whether the monitor is used as script monitor or as talent monitor.
