Ikan's PT4900 professional teleprompter series 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 1/4-20" and 3/8-16" threads for mounting to a tripod or pedestal. The monitor includes HDMI, Composite, and VGA video inputs. Its high bright screen ensures clear visibility in any lighting condition. This teleprompter kit also features a 19" widescreen SDI talent monitor with a built-in tally light.
Extreme Clarity
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.
Large Range of Camera Compatibility
Ikan's professional line of teleprompters include three different camera mount bases, making it compatible with a wide variety of cameras such as professional ENG cameras, cinema cameras, mirrorless cameras, and camcorders.

Versatile Teleprompter Monitor
The 19" monitor features HDMI, Composite, and VGA inputs. The native resolution is 1280 x 1024 and the max brightness is 1000 nits.
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.
High Bright Screen
The 1000 nit high bright screen is able to 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.
Aluminum Chassis
The custom aluminum housing is robust and will protect the monitor from the rigors of production. The monitor features bezel-mounted buttons making it easy to navigate menu functions or change your input source.
Easy to Balance
The 19" teleprompter includes a rail that allows you to easily balance your entire teleprompter setup so that you don't need a counter weight. The teleprompter can be offset along the sled.
Widescreen Talent Monitor
The 19" widescreen talent monitor is designed to conveniently attach below the teleprompter to enable on-screen talent see their presentations live. The monitor features 3G-SDI, HDMI, and VGA, inputs. The native resolution is 1920 x 1080 HD and max brightness is 1000 nits. The talent monitor includes a 15mm mounting system that connects it to the teleprompter.
Built-In Tally Light for On Air Status
The widescreen talent monitor features a tally light that illuminates red, green, and yellow. This means that a director can cut between cameras and the tally color will let the on-camera talent know which camera is live.
Dual Tally Lights
The talent monitor can be mounted as either a talent monitor or a script monitor. The monitor features a toggle switch that allows you to choose which of the two tally lights you would like to use depending on which setup you decide to choose.
Ultra-Secure Hood
The hood of the teleprompter is anchored to the frame with bolts and additionally secured with magnets for extra stability.
Compatible with Bigger Lenses
The teleprompter hood for the PT4900-V2 features a much wider opening allowing some of the biggest lenses available to be used.
Ships in Reusable Foam
The professional teleprompter is shipped in reusable custom cut foam which will help keep the kit safe and organized when you set it up or break it down. The custom cut foam fits perfectly fit in the optional Ikan PT-CASE-4U rolling hard case.
