The Ikan PT419-TM is designed for a quick and easy setup to work efficiently in studio or broadcast applications. The teleprompter includes 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 features 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, as well as integrated tally lights to let you know when your camera is live.
Proprietary Glass and Coating Formula
The glass is coated so that it reflects 65% of the light projected onto it while allowing the remaining 35% to pass through. This unique characteristic enables the presenter to read the reflected script text clearly, projected from a monitor below or behind the glass, while simultaneously allowing the camera positioned directly behind the glass to record through it without capturing the reflected text.
Versatile Teleprompter Monitor
The 19" prompter 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.
High Bright Screen
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.
Widescreen Talent Monitor
The 19" Widescreen Talent Monitor is designed to conveniently attach below the teleprompter to enable on-screen talent to see their presentations live. The monitor features 3G-SDI, HDMI, and VGA inputs. The native resolution is 1920 x 1080 HD, 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 talent monitor utilizes a red/green tally light that lets you know when your camera is live.
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.
