DesviewT2 Teleprompter for Tablet Smartphone iPad up to 8 inch,70/30 Beam Splitter Glass,Teleprompter with Remote Control for DSLR Camera Phone Video Recording

Design and Build:The Desview T2 Teleprompter has this nifty design that clips right onto your camera lens, which is pretty awesome if you're always on the move or switching between different setups. No bulky rigs here! It's made mostly of plastic, but that's actually a good thing in this case. It keeps it light, so it's not going to weigh down your camera or make your gimbal go haywire.How It's Been Treating Me:I've been using this little guy for around six months for video shoots where I need to move around a lot but also stick to a script. It's been super straightforward to use, a real no-brainer to clip on and off, which is exactly what you need when you're trying to juggle a million things on set.What I'm Digging:The best part? How easy it is to snap the T2 on and off the camera. It's a game-changer when you're in a rush or need to swap gear fast. Plus, it's pretty flexible with what you can slap on there—works like a charm with anything up to an iPad mini.Not-So-Great:If you're trying to use something bigger than an iPad mini, you might find the screen area a bit on the small side. But hey, it's made to be compact and easy to tote around, so it's kind of a trade-off.Pro Tip:If you're working with a wider lens, you might need to zoom in a bit to avoid getting your device in the shot. Saves you the hassle of cropping later.All in all, the Desview T2 Teleprompter is a solid pick if you're after something that's easy to use, doesn't tie you down, and keeps up with the fast pace of video production. It's not without its quirks, especially if you're hoping to use a bigger tablet, but its portability and user-friendliness are top-notch. Definitely a win for creators on the go.

Pros:This teleprompter works.It makes a good final product for homemade videos.It works well using just a high-quality smartphone camera.It has a high-quality glass plate which, if you set it all up with care, will deliver a nice-looking video.It's designed intelligently for high functionality without high-quality materials (other than the glass).It's cheap.Cons:The reason it costs so little is that, besides the nice glass, everything else is flimsy and just barely good enough. That's not a complaint, just an observation. You get what you pay for and in this case, you are paying for a nice piece of non-reflective glass and not much else.It is surprisingly difficult to set your smartphone camera because the holder just barely attaches to the frame. With practice, the process will get quicker, no doubt. But the locking nut is seriously like half a revolution away from not being able to tighten it enough. Once tight it's fine, but unfortunately, unless you are planning to just leave it set up with the phone in place, you have to go through the delicate set-up each time. It could be much easier. Also, I would definitely recommend taking the holder off each time because if you tried to add and remove the phone into the spring clamp each time with only that lucking nut holding it in place...? I think it would break pretty quickly.Also, using a second smartphone for the prompter in front of the glass is not super convenient. Again, that's why it's cheap - you have to supply the prompter. I was counting pennies and decided to buy the Desview T2, use my phone as a camera (which works great), and go to Best Buy to purchase a second smartphone with no data plan for 30 bucks, simply to use as a tiny tablet for this purpose. This all proved to work fine. But it's tricky to use. The app works, the remote works, and the cheap phone works, but it's not easy and it takes a long time to get ready for each shoot.Also, for those wondering, the prompter holder is big enough for a small tablet only. An 11-inch iPad pro? No way. I haven't tried to fit anything but that phone into it, but it looks to me like nothing larger than an iPad mini, or maybe a Kindle Fire would fit.All that said, the Desview T2 does work as advertised. It's a great solution if you need a teleprompter and don't want to invest much more than 100 bucks (or have a second phone already).Bottom line: The video product looks good. If you understand everything I've said above, buy without fear.

I should have bought one of these years ago! This teleprompter works great. I did have to buy Came-TV adapter to mount this on my tripod to use with my Sony ZV-1, but after I figured out how to assemble it all, it makes shooting content a breeze. I create my scripts and add them to the Desview app, and put my iPhone 11 Pro into the holder on the teleprompter. You do have to practice reading from the teleprompter but there are setting you can adjust to help you. The remote is easy to figure out too.
