I've just bought mine. Thanks for the insights. Great video.

[@Triggity_Tron]

You deserve way more views!! You are my go to for info bro! Thanks for your work

[@DarkenedCyrus]

That means so much! Thank you for the support!

[@TheZanderKrugerShow]

Also, what kind of tripod do you use? I see yours has some sort of support leg for the monitor.

[@DarkenedCyrus]

It will fit on any tripod with a 1/4-20 thread mount. The arm is just a spare magic mount I had lying around to just stabilize the monitor screen. It isn’t necessary, but helps with wobbles

Fantastic advice and breakdown Brandon. I'm actually torn right now between getting a glide gear teleprompter to use with 10.2" iPad or alternatively the Elgato for talking head language education type content. Which setup would you choose for that sort of thing? Many thanks!

[@DarkenedCyrus]

The best tool is the one you will use. I’ve done the iPad and the separate screen prompter and that setup was difficult to flip the text easily. Thats why the Elgato prompter is huge at its price. It removes all of that setup and just works.

@@DarkenedCyrus Nice! That's great and very useful feedback.

[@telocuento_off]

Does Elgato prompter work with the Lumix G7 camera with 25MM micro four thirds lens?

[@DarkenedCyrus]

I don’t know the lens combo personally. There is a list in Elgato’s site that says whatever or not it will work

[@YakutaHoshi]

Hey! just noticed you dropped Rode nt1, anything wrong with it? Also I might get that dang prompter at some point but it's kinda expensive, seem pretty nice :D

[@DarkenedCyrus]

Nope! I LOVE that microphone. I regularly change mics out for testing and the SM7B is going through its run right now for an upcoming video

[@YakutaHoshi]

@@DarkenedCyrus awesome :D I bought it couple of months ago and am having a blast, my only issue is the echo it catches and sometimes my Air purifier when I record Voiceovers, and am considering getting procaster for streams, especially for summer when with open windows it might catch all the parties in my block lol.

[@TheZanderKrugerShow]

I have a Sony Zv-e10 with a Sigma 16mm lens. Wil it fit with the prompter?

[@DarkenedCyrus]

100%!

[@Joyedlion]

I went to see how much the prompter was and it was $276 and Amazon said it was out of stock and I was thinking well the darkness bought them all XDD

[@PughsReview]

Thanks now I got to spend more money 😂

[@ItsScapeGoated]

Or save yourself the money and just use your other monitor. Don't have one? Fair amount of monitors are about as cheap as this is and do far more.

[@DarkenedCyrus]

So true. Except reading scripts and using the confidence monitor are so much easier when using teleprompter

[@ItsScapeGoated]

@@DarkenedCyrus I mean I suppose so, guess it all depends on the software you use. I just use Wordpad and scroll down with a little remote. Of course this is all my own personal opinion that I find the prompter rather useless, though for people with much higher budgets it makes more sense.
