[Yes] Super easy to set up, easy to adjust for different sized cameras, and you can adjust the balance point so it isn't front heavy. Build quality is great, but the part that holds the glass is a bit plasticy.

The screen takes HDMI and VGA connections to the computer, and the software that comes with it is great too.

We've used it for a few different shoots and have had no problems loading & editing scripts or reading from it. I'd certainly recommend it, so much better than our old iPad prompter for studio work!

[13' / 4 m] This is my first experience with a teleprompter so there was some experimentation needed to get it adjusted properly. I noticed right away that some people feel the need to tilt their head back while viewing the reflected image and a lower camera angle was the cure. Putting it away then assembling it ready for action takes more time than I would want but I see no alternative. One issue is the complete apparatus situated on a camera tripod is unstable and tippy, so caution is advised. Overall I think this works as advertised and seems of good quality and careful construction. Why other units cost so much more is a question I still ponder.

[9 W] This is a great teleprompter for the price, honestly you wont find a better option in this price range, also the support that prompter people gives is great. They helped me setup the prompter, and the software. 

I read an earlier review that mentioned flip-q lite, but was happy to learn that they have not been sending out flip-q lite for a long time, and now the full version of flip-q is provided for free with the prompter. The software is easy to use, and the fact that monitor automatically flips the image makes it even easier to do things like power points or interrotron setups with this prompter. 

All-in-all Im very happy with my purchase.

[160 x 140°] I use all the time for Auditions.... Works Great

[Glass] The flex plus high bright model we got has side inputs in the monitor so attaching the HDMI and SDI cables was easy, not sure how anyone would have issues with this.
Love the folding hood and removable back sled. We can swap it from a regular teleprompter to a freestanding teleprompter.
For the price it's well worth it, the only complaint I have is the software is a bit dated, but at least the software as included for free.

[15.145 lb] You do need a good tripod though (of course)

[Glass] I've been using this Teleprompter for over 3 years now and it's taken a beating and lasted a long time with no issues.
I love being able to use it as a standard teleprompter and with the removable back sled I put a rapid adapter on the bottom adapter plate and it's now a freestanding teleprompter, so if there's a shoot with a lot of BRoll and only one camera we can knock the interviews out without having to remove our camera from the tripod, just putting the teleprompter on a junior roller and moving it into shoot.
I also love that prompter people is available for real live phone support and they respond to emails fast usually within 30 or so minutes.
I can't think of any other video equipment company with this level of service.
Overall this has been my favorite teleprompter I've ever owned and it's well worth the price (It's actually cheaper than other teleprompters of this level of quality).

[70/30] I've been using teleprompters as a key component of my shoots for the last 4 years, and have relied on my ikan hdmi monitor style prompter ever since. The issue with that one is it relies on these tiny machine screws to keep the whole thing together, so there are a lot of weak spots where I've had to retap and re-screw to prevent it from crumbling. This PP branded prompter is a great replacement. All the same features of the computer-to-hdmi-to-monitor style control, but with one hinge that has a safety stop and minimal threaded weak points. Also I'm loving the 15 size and enhanced font!

[13' / 4 m] So, this is my second Prompter for our set. The other is a 15 Ikan. Though the Ikan is built out of better materials, I prefer this Desview 21 as does our talent. The material is of a cheaper plastic, however it is a lot easier to setup and does its job very well can is half the price.


It's a lot less of a hassle to travel with and setup than the smaller, better build quality, Ikan.


So know, you will not be getting high quality components in this price range, but if your goal is to gain a prompter with a large reading area that is easy to setup and works well, this is for you.


Please Note that we did NOT use the prompter software that this came with, so no comment on the software. We use one of the highly rated Mac Apps for our software.

[13' / 4 m] works well...and the talent loves the bigger screen.
