Become a professional in your field with the PT4500S-TMW-TK Ikan's Professional Teleprompter Series, designed for seamless integration into broadcast applications and professional studios. This 15" 3G-SDI High-Bright Teleprompter features a 70/30 reflective glass, enhancing visibility for the presenter and ensuring a clear, crisp reflection of the script.

Constructed from lightweight aluminum, this widescreen teleprompter offers multiple 3/8-16" and 1/4-20" mounting options, making it compatible with a variety of tripods or pedestals. The monitor is equipped with 3G-SDI, HDMI, and VGA inputs, providing versatile connectivity options. Its high-bright screen guarantees clear visibility under any lighting conditions, making it an ideal choice for both indoor and outdoor use.

One of the standout features of this teleprompter is the intuitive image flip button, which allows for easy adjustment of the display orientation. The wide viewing angle and integrated tally lights ensure you're always aware when your camera is live, enhancing your on-air performance.

The unique 70/30 reflective glass coating allows 70% of the light to be reflected while the remaining 30% passes through. This feature enables the presenter to read the script text clearly, while the camera positioned behind the glass records without capturing the reflected text.

This professional teleprompter series is designed to accommodate a wide range of camera sizes, thanks to its three different camera mount bases and adjustable counterweights. The base can be conveniently slid to adjust the weight, eliminating the need to remove the plate.

The 15-inch Widescreen Talent Monitor boasts a native resolution of 1920 x 1080 HD and a maximum brightness of 1000 nits. It features an OSD adjustment menu for fine-tuning contrast, brightness, backlight, tint, chroma, and sharpness. The monitor also allows for individual adjustment of each RGB color channel and automatic detection of the aspect ratio.

The built-in tally lights indicate on-air status with red, green, and yellow lights, providing clear communication between the director, crew, and on-camera talent. The quick setup feature and the 15mm rod holder compatibility make this teleprompter a breeze to install.

The 1000 nit high-bright screen ensures clear and vivid text visibility, even in intense lighting conditions such as outdoor settings or brightly lit studios. The teleprompter also includes a rail for easy balancing of your setup, and the durable aluminum chassis ensures longevity and robustness.

This professional teleprompter is shipped in reusable custom cut foam, which fits perfectly in the included SKB rolling hard case, ensuring safe and organized transport and storage. Elevate your broadcast or studio work with the PT4500S-TMW-TK Ikan's Professional Teleprompter Series.
