The Ikan PT419-PTZ is designed for a quick and easy setup to work efficiently in studio or broadcast applications. The included teleprompter hood fully encloses the PTZ camera, allowing it to move freely inside the hood. The teleprompter features a 65/35 reflective glass that makes the reflection easier to see for the presenter. The lightweight aluminum teleprompter has multiple ¼"-20 and ⅜-16 threads for mounting to a tripod or pedestal. The monitor includes SDI, HDMI, Composite, and VGA video inputs. Its high-brightness screen ensures clear visibility in any lighting condition. An intuitive image flip button allows for easy adjustment of the display orientation. The monitor also features a wide viewing angle and a 19" widescreen SDI talent monitor with a built-in tally light.
PTZ Teleprompting
The Ikan PTZ Teleprompter system is a unique PTZ teleprompting system that enables the PTZ camera's pan, tilt, and zoom capabilities while still behind the reflective teleprompter glass. You can easily pan the camera between multiple people reading from the same script.
Fully Enclosed PTZ Hood
The PTZ teleprompter features a lightweight hood that fully encloses the PTZ camera, which allows its movement to remain unconstrained. The hood includes an opening in the back that gives you quick access to the PTZ camera's inputs and outputs. The opening can be closed with a drawstring, which removes the possibility of any light leaks.
High-Bright Teleprompter Monitor
The 1000 nit high-brightness 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. The monitor features SDI, HDMI, Composite, and VGA inputs. The native resolution is 1280 x 1024, 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.
Built-In Tally Light for On Air Status
Both the widescreen talent monitor and the prompter monitor feature a tally light that illuminates red and green. A green tally light is typically used to indicate that a camera is in preview mode. 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.
