ElgatoPrompter – Teleprompter with Built-in Screen for YouTube, Twitch, Zoom, MS Teams and more, Supports DSLR/Webcam/Smartphone, Drag & Drop Monitor Display, Works with Mac/PC & Stream Deck

This Elgato Prompter really is amazing for Vloggers or people creating courses.Basically, you connect this to your computer and the computer uses this as a second screen. The prompter has a mirror built into it and so it reflects this backwards second screen in a way that you can see it as if it was the correct way round.For most people, this allows you to write scripts and have them broadcast from your laptop to the screen using the Elgato software. However, you are able to just use it as a second screen for things such as Discord if you want to.What makes the prompter so good is that your camera goes behind the screen, which servers as a one-way mirror essentially. You see a screen, but your camera behind the screen captures you. This means no more looking off to a second screen or down at your notes. It means far less takes as you can read from a script rather than having to remember lines.I really liked how many attachments came with the prompter. Whatever size lens you have, there's a fitting for the prompter to attach to your camera. There are also options for smaller cameras or phones as well, although you may need to pick up a cheap attachment depending.Overall, I think this is an excellent way to improve your videos. It's very easy to setup and use as well.

I have struggled to keep on track with my videos narrative for a while, and after checking out some other reviews on the Elgato Prompter I decided it was time to take the plunge.Setup was easy, I am using it with a Sony ZV-E10 it unfortunately needs a different lens to clip the prompter directly to utilise the included accessories, but the shroud does a great job of keeping out external light.The quality is very good as you would expect from Elgato, and it works seamlessly, the unit connects via USB C to USB A on the PC end, this provides power to the unit.The Elgato prompter is good value when compared to units requiring a seperate display, initial impressions are good, but the software does take some getting used to, the Stream Deck integration is awesome and made it simpler to scroll through whilst filming, the AI narrative function I couldn’t get working consistently.Overall, very good initial impressions.

I use it with an iPhone, and most of the time it is perfect it gets the job done.If you want to use it with a phone one thing to consider, in portrait mode you can’t use the camera under 50 mm. With the wide angle and a 24 mm camera, you’re gonna see quite a big chunk of the prompter in the video. But this is obviously not the prompters fault, just something to think about if you want to use it with the phone.The prompt itself is nicely built nothing special. It’s easy to use, the software it comes with is fairly simple to use.It definitely speeds up the workflow quite significantly.For the price, I think it’s a good deal.

The device itself is great. Fits my BMPCC4k on a 58mm adapter no problems. BUT the app needs work.

Works really well, camera mount is really good and is great for all camera types.The Elgato Facecam mount comes ready fit which I didn't notice till i'd bought another.One thing to note, it's a lot better if you use straight into USB, DO NOT use a hub as it seems to confuse the software. Also if possible use USB C - USB C as it's a lot smoother

This product could be amazing but the software lets it down.-Setup is extremely difficult even for advanced users-MacOS setup needs extreme care in order to circumvent all the issues with DisplayLink- Voice sync doesn't work properly on any Mac (M1 Max, M3 Max, M4 Max) as display is lagging and it cannot keep up with the audio.-You cannot edit scripts without having the teleprompter attached to your computer which is utterly inexplicable-Updates are scarce and development of the app is slow-There is no excuse for unresolved issues after so many months of the product being on the market.If you're looking for a prompter that will just do the job you can get something much cheaper. I would only look into the Elgato once all the issues are fixed-until then it's barely useable.

I was impressed with this prompter's hardware. The screen is attached and it fits nicely onto my cameras. It can aslo mirror you Pc's or Mac's screen.However the real let down is the software, they clearly have not spent enough time on it. It is buggy to set up on Mac and you have to tinker with settings. What ever you do don't upgrade your Mac to OS 15. After the upgrade the software works sometimes and other time it doesn't. I have to constantly disconnect and reconnect the usb and also restart my Mac. Also the voice follow feature stopped working on MAc 15.I have checked forums and many others are hacving the same problem.Come on Elgato, what's the point of the prompter if it's so buggy and some features don't work.

My favourite bit of new kit of the last year. You can just ignore the software after first setup and it operates as a normal monitor (since it uses Display Link). I drag all my Zoom calls on to it when having meetings, which means I'm looking straight in to the camera and making eye contact, which is so rare on Zoom when people are normally looking to the side or below the camera. When not in use for Zoom is drag YouTube Music or my todo list app on there to keep it out of the way but still visible. Highly recommended.
