The Ikan PT15-T is a 15" monitor that features 3D-SDI, HDMI, Composite, and VGA inputs. The native resolution is 1280x1024, and the max brightness is 1000 nits. The OSD adjustment menu allows adjustment for contrast, brightness, backlight, tint, chroma, and 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.
Image Flip Button
The monitor features an image flip button that allows for both horizontal and vertical flipping of the displayed image. This feature is ideal for presenters who are video conferencing since it enables the presenter to view themselves as if they were looking into a mirror, giving a greater sense of comfort during the video conference or live stream.
Built-In Tally Light for On Air Status
The monitor features a tally light that illuminates red or green. This means that a director can cut between cameras, and the tally color will let the on-camera talent know which camera is live. Green tally lights are typically used as a way to signal to the talent, crew, and director that a camera is about to go live, and to be ready for the shot. This means that the camera's output is being sent to a monitor, but it is not currently on air. This allows the talent, director, and production crew to check the composition, focus, and other aspects of the shot before it goes live. A red tally light is used to indicate when a camera is live or on-air.
High Bright Screen
The 1000 nit high bright screen can deliver clear and vivid text visibility in various lighting conditions. In environments with intense lighting, such as outdoor settings or brightly lit studios. This feature is particularly vital for outdoor teleprompting, where sunlight can wash out the display of a standard monitor.
