Proaim Universal Teleprompter Kit for Tablet/Smartphone/DSLR Video Cameras. 60:40 Beam Splitter, Quick Release Camera Plate. Sunhood & Cotton Gloves, 1/4" & 3/8" Tripod Threads + Hard Case (P-TP300)

Our team of YouTube video preparers consists of several experienced people and me. I have zero experience in making videos, but in this case, I’m the person with the knowledge about subject of our video. We have rehearsed several times and each rehearsal was terrible. We bought this teleprompter and the difference it makes is amazing. I can look into the camera and say the words that are suppose to be said, without my eyes darting in all different directions. This, of course, applies to every teleprompter, but this one set up easily and is easy to adjust and use. I love it!

I have a four star only because the product did not include instructions to setup and properly align. Other than that it’s a great TelePrompTer with a great case. I do recommend but only if you’ve used one before. It helps when putting together.

So far I have absolutely loved using this thing. It takes some tweaking to get it set for your camera but it really is a great addition to my video arsenal. My clients love the option to use a prompter for reading text. It looks so much more natural than having a piece of paper taped to the tripod.Build quality is great. The case is awesome.I will update if anything changes.

Junk quality. But serves it’s purpose. For this price I should not be receiving a cheap plastic quick release plate that my camera has snapped out of multiple times and nearly broke. Embarrassing. Should have refunded when I had the chance.

If the camera is sitting low you can’t see the script, I had to move the script down further so I could read the top line of the script, this most likely due to the rigid hood, it doesn’t allow you to adjust the glass height of the glass from the pad, I seen cheaper models with this option, I wish I had done my homework before I purchased it, I gave two stars because I like the case it came with. Oh and assembly of the glass is way too complicated than it should be, the engineers should go back to the drawing board with that because it’s time consuming and frustrating.

This doesn’t fit our application. Due to the distance on our green screen set our cameras are to far from the presenter. This prompt image is too small to see unfortunately.

The media could not be loaded.  The Teleprompter is very good for our News and YouTube productions. It's easy to use and well engineered.

Nice

I really wanted to like this, but i returned it. It's very heavy, the supplied plate and release is not standard manfrotto, so you can't just switch your cam between tripod and autocue. Getting the glass in took me over an hour and left my fingers were sore - it is not the customer's job to build your product. Packing - it arrives in a big heavy hard case, for some people this is great. Not for me, i need to be able to pack it away fairly flat, in my standard camera case with my gear - not possible with this, it just has not been designed for transport, it does not fold down neatly, there is no quick setup and takedown. It's basically a studio autocue, you wouldn't want to have to travel with this thing, whereas the glidegear packs down small and neat. The magnets work well, the rod plates are fine, just a shame the designers don't seem to have thought about what people want from an autocue. This should be clearly labelled suitable for studios or large productions, as it is totally unsuitable for solo operators and those looking to be mobile.

I bought this teleprompter as it's a great alternative to the old PortaPrompt's which sadly arent available for tablet based promoters anymore.The build quality is very good but the locking nuts aren't rotatable.The lens hood is incredibly well designed and fits snugly and is magnetic to the glass frame.I switched out the 15mm rods for slightly longer ones that I had but that was to accommodate balancing a larger camera like a C300. I also changed out the tripod plate mount for a Manfrotto one to keep me from switching plates mid way through a shoot.This is a much stronger and sturdier option than lots of other teleprompters

Its a great piece of kit, but beware of the price. Seems like a bargain, but then the cost of the postage ,the import duty and the charge that the freight company will charge you for sending a letter will see an increase of about £140.

There are no instructions to assemble the product. There is a mention that all user manuals are available on proaim.com/Usermanuals but when you go on this page, it is not available. The assemble is not easy.The Teleprompter setup seems to be unbalanced in the sense that I keep feeling it will fall forward as there is too much weight on the front of the setup without any counterweights at the back.I did not receive the red colored quick release plate as shown in the pictures and mentioned in the product description. I did receive a different plate, so that ok but still it is not as per the description of the product.I will give only 2 stars for lack of ease of use2 stars for design as it keeps leaning forward and the center of gravity is not managed properly.glass quality is okay - not very good, doesn't feel like a special beam splitter glass. It seems like a normal glass to me.2 start for not receiving the product and accessories not as mentioned in the description.ProsCary case is goodThe glass cover is help ligths out is good with magnets at the edges to quickly attach to the glass frame which is a metal frame.In my mind it is a 10k or max 15k product.

My first impression was that it was smaller than I thought it would be. But we have done some shoots now and with the medium size Ipad and with PromptDog the text can be read at the usual distance. It took some fiddling of some hours to optimally mount my video camera into the ridg and make various adjustments, but I got it to work. Be very careful when assembling because it is easy to do it incorrectly, including mounting the glass the wrong side out. Plan for a couple hours of pondering and trying LOL.
