Ikan's PT4500-TMW-TRIPOD includes everything you need for your professional camera & teleprompting setup. This solution includes a 15" teleprompter, widescreen talent monitor, tripod, and dolly. This solution also includes carrying bags for the tripod, head, and dolly.
All of Ikan's systems have been tested internally for payload compatibility. The remaining payload capacity, after mounting the full 15" teleprompter system without the counterweight, can accommodate camera setups up to 21.4 lbs
Heavy-Duty Tripod
The heavy-duty tripod is made of aluminum and the legs are a twin tube design with two stages. It includes the E-Image Mono-Lock design which allows you to control the height of both stages with a single twist lock. The tripod by itself can be adjusted to a maximum height of 63" and a minimum height of 18" with a folded length of 29".
Widescreen Talent Monitor
The 15-inch Widescreen Monitor features 3D-SDI, HDMI, and VGA, inputs. The native resolution is 1920 x 1080 HD and max brightness is 1000 nits. The OSD adjustment menu allows adjustment for contrast, brightness, backlight, tint, chroma, sharpness. You can also adjust the intensity of each RGB color channel. Aspect ratio can be set as 16:9, 4:3, full, or it can be set to automatically detect the aspect ratio and set it accordingly. When plugged into a compatible video switcher, the monitor utilizes a red/green tally light that lets you know when your camera is live.
Built-In Tally Lights
Ikan's teleprompter monitors feature integrated tally lights designed to enhance communication between on-camera talent and production teams. The built-in light operates with the convenience of transmitting tally information over an Ethernet cable. These built-in tally lights serve as visual indicators, illuminating when the camera is actively live on-air or recording, providing real-time feedback to the presenters. Tally lights are included with each monitor, offering enhanced flexibility.
Extreme Clarity
The high quality 70/30 made-in-America teleprompter glass provides the perfect balance of reflection and pass-through without distorting the image. With 1000 nits the prompting image will always be crisp and visible whether you're under the sun or studio lighting.
Large Range Of Camera Compatibility
Ikans professional line teleprompters not only include four different camera mount bases but also counterweights to allow for a large range of different-sized cameras to work. The base can conveniently slide to adjust the weight without the need to remove the plate.
