Q: 1. Can you mount this prompter on a light stand?

A: I would highly recommend against using this Teleprompter on just a light stand. It weighs 10 pounds and its shape will make it difficult to remain stable. A tripod like B&H #DAPVT7518B from Davis & Sanford would be a far more suitable option.

Q: 2. Will this work with the Black Magic Ursa Major?

A: Jeff, I don't have that exact model for us to test in-house, but I doubt it. The Ursa Major is quite large, so I doubt it would work well with this teleprompter.

Q: 8. I am concerned about the 12 screen being too small to use comfortably. My client will be 12' from the camera. Our studio Teleprompter is 17 and 4x3, but it is too hard to take in the field. Should I move up to the 15 ?
