Turnkey Broadcast Solution
Ikan’s PT4900-V2 Turnkey Broadcast Solutions include everything you need for your professional camera setup. This solution includes a 19" SDI teleprompter, pedestal, and dolly.
The remaining payload capacity, after mounting the full 19" teleprompter, can accommodate camera setups up to 31.2 lbs. This solution also includes a hard case for the pedestal and a carrying bag for the dolly.
19" Teleprompter System
Ikan’s 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, 3G-SDI, and VGA video inputs. Its high bright 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.
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 teleprompters include three different camera mount bases to allow for a large range of different-sized cameras to work. The base can conveniently slide to adjust the weight without the need to remove the plate.
Easy to Balance
The PT4900-V2 includes a long rail which allows you to easily balance your entire teleprompter setup. A counterweight is not needed with the PT4900 since the weight can be shifted anywhere along the teleprompter base. Since a counterweight is not needed, you will not be adding additional weight to the tripod head.
Versatile Teleprompter Monitor
The 19" monitor features HDMI, 3G-SDI, 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, 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. The wide viewing angles make it easy to view, even when you are not directly in front of the system.
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.
Slide Range
The 60mm tripod plate mounts the teleprompter system to the fluid head and provides an extra 5.7 inches of sliding range.
Drag/Counterbalance
The fluid head features 15-steps of adjustable counterbalance system, and 8 steps of pan & tilt dampening. The Drag & Counterbalance combined are a crucial feature in video camera tripods, enhancing stability and facilitating smooth camera movements.
