I can’t lie, this would definitely help with creating content. Great video my guy 🙌🏾
I’m loving using it already just from making this video! Thanks a lot buddy 💜
This answered a lot questions I had. Thank you for the informative review.
Glad the video helped! Thanks for the kind words!
Ordered one last week! Great video bro 💪
Great in-depth video! I will be adding this prompter to my Wishlist. Thanks!
Glad the vid helped! 💜
I see a lot of people loving this prompter and I definitely want one. I’m hoping with the success of this product that they release a pro or xl version for production set ups. I’d love to buy one
Do you think something like the DJI Pocket 2 would work with this? I'm wondering if it's too tall to fit into the mount.
Thanks, your overview is the best that I’ve seen. Even better than El Gato’s.
Great video! 👍
Nice vid. 👍 But you showed attaching a Sigma 16mm lens and mentioned not zooming in your shot - however I think Elgato said this is only compatible with a 20mm lens and above. Are you cropping in when editing your video? Or are you using the Sony Clear Image Zoom inside your camera?
16mm at APSC which is what type of lens that is.. is equivalent to 24mm at full frame. So it’s still tighter than the 20mm limit.
@@JustAverageLarry oh cool! My Elgato Prompter shipped but didn't land yet - will verify for sure! I have all the Sigma APS-C lenses to test with (and a few Sony lenses).
@@FluidPrompter yeah from what I’ve seen it can get a bit of vignette at 22mm depending on the lens build.. but I’ve also seen if you put your camera right up against the glass you can get as wide as 14mm
Can this be used in the field? Can a script be loaded into the prompter without connecting to another monitor?
I wonder how the vignette would be with my Samyang 12mm or sony 11mm on sony apsc? Also it's weird you need the software for a Mac it makes me wonder if it only picks up in Windows or if it be fine on Linux.
It works I might buy it for my setup
Would this prompter work with a full frame camera, Sigma 402965 16 mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary Sony E Lens without capturing the prompter? Also how did I get this before March in the UK D:
Superb video, if I have "freewell" magnetic filters on the front of my lens, can I still use this system?
Thank you, glad you liked it! It may be an issue if you have filters on the front of your lenses due to the fact the step up rings need to be screwed onto the lens itself. However you would still be able to use this with the universal shroud anyway
What do you need any filter for in a studio scenario?
I purchased a 16" Teleprompter all metal for 140.00 with the ability to accept monitors of up to 16" by 10.2" . I also bought a 15.6" monitor with 1000 nits capabilities and the ability to flip the image on Vertical, Horizontal, and Vertical + horizontal axis all built into the monitor. No need to go through an HDMI Flip Box or Software. I wanted to use the Teleprompter as a normal working monitor when not Live Streaming etc... Also normal monitors produce 400 to 700 nits and appear a bit dull after hitting the two-way mirror... with 1000 nits the image appears nice bright and sharp ... cheers amigos !!!
Can Prompter be set-up w/ using a small Sony Handy Camcorder or any Sony Camcorder?
Excellent video, and yes, I could tell you were using a prompter because of the slight left-to-right movement of your eyes. I work in the entrainment industry and occasionally use professional prompters. The general rule is to stay no closer than 8 feet away and read that should solve people watching eyes move, it also helps knowing some of the script :)
Yeah the distance you’re sitting from it definitely has a large effect, and watching this back as I edited it I could see the movements myself, it’s not awful, it’s just something you have to learn to control if you do have to sit nearer to it. Glad you liked the video!
It has a horizontal margin setting he probably didn't use. Makes the column of text more narrow and would likely have solved the problem instantly.
will it connect to a samsung smartphone for example via usb-c when I am on the go?
Dang I wish I bought this one instead of the Padcastor Pro Telepromptor that I still haven't received yet
That is sick 😮😮😮
You know it
Backorders are insane. Delivery is now in March 2024.
At 5:55, how did you mount it & at 6:50 where do you go to download the software?
Literally just screwed the mount into one of the mounting points on the bottom of the prompter. You can find the software on the Elgato website
I’d take practicing to be engaging and knowing what to say over spending $280 for some plastic. Even if I needed it to read a stream chat, I could just buy a second monitor, and a monitor arm for less the price altogether!
1st but this video was sick keep up the good work I look up to you( your my idol) I wanna be like you!!
Thank you very much, I appreciate the kind words. Glad I’m able to inspire you! 💜
Can it also work with twitch studio?
Spudd gaming that ps5 is just like a xbox series s youu should get it when your unboxing
They totally dropped the ball by not allowing us to save and re-open scripts... and by not adding a POWER button to turn it off when not in use... but otherwise pretty great so far.
Then there's those who won't be able to make use of twitch chat as they're either leaving twitch, or stream elsewhere. Will have to just pop out chat without optimal text. Rip lol.
I’m such an elgato fanboy. Haha.
Looks like the Desview T3 with an Elgato monitor
Trust me.... Desview SUCKS! I have just replaced mine with this and it's like going from a Honda Civic to a Rolls Royce. Fussing with a mobile device on the Desview bracket, and then trying to use their PoS software is a huge hassle. I will be tossing mine in the garbage soon.
@@CRE8VALU 😂
I just bought a 10” Portable Monitor off Amazon that, like the Elgato uses 1 usb-c cable - cost $100 USD.
And I don’t use Desview’s app, rather “Teleprompter” on the App Store.
can it be mounted to a ring light?
I don’t see why not, if the ring light you’re using is sturdy it won’t have an issue with the weight. If you’re using a camera mounted on there then the prompter just sits on the lens anyway, and if not there shouldn’t be an issue mounting it due to the location of the mounting points
@@SpuddGaming Thanks for the reply
It has 2 "cold shoes" on top. You can slide the ring light into one of those if it's the kind that mounts onto a camera.

Too bad it has an estimated shipping date for the end of January 2024 👎
If I'm going to wait that long for it to ship, I may as well wait to see if I can get it on a potential black Friday discount.
They generated my tracking number today so I hope I don't have to wait until January! Fingers crossed.
@@JohnnysBox I'm hoping you receive it soon
#1st hour
Appreciate you!
The Joe Biden Screen.....
😂😂
I love this product!!! Can you give one away 🙏🏻 I would love to win one
FIRST
Howdy!
Day 26 of praying for a pc 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I wonder if they’ll put out a Biden model 🤔
The price tag alone is absurd. You could get 2 monitors for that price that have use. The "use as a monitor" is a joke because it's small and then requires more mouse scrolling and zooming. The camera bit is weird and looks unnatural, would never watch someone that used this because it's gimmicky in a bad way. Nothing about this has value unless you are looking for ways to be like "I bought this so my stream will be better" mentality. Doesn't matter if you're boring.
well this is obviously less for streamers and heavily caters towards content creators and independent news reporter, so can't afford it? just leave it.
I mean it’s like 400$ in my currency that’s not that extreme, if it’s actually useful for content creation doesn’t seem that egregious but to each their own
Also 2 monitors for 400$ is really cheap definitely not anything higher than 1080p and 144hz
@@ActiveTyranttheres monitors that have that for 200$
Its pretty useful if you do content creation
So most people will never use or buy this
I’ve seen a lot of people who’ve ordered it already today
Hm
So pointless 😂
