Five Star Reviews: | 57% The remote instructions are clear and pairing is easy. One caveat though April 9, 2016 I do interview videos for political candidates and my process has improved exponentially. My 'subjects' are natural and at ease and our sessions go quickly. The price/quality ratio is outstanding. In addition, the remote is well worth including. The Parrot app works well with my Android Samsung 6 edge. The remote instructions are clear and pairing is easy. One caveat though, the raised button on the remote emits an audible click that may be picked up with sensitive mics. Good for the money. January 29, 2016 I was concerned about the size, but it's actually pretty effective. It's cost effective. My client was happy. The parrot prompter app is actually one of the best ones. The bluetooth remote is finicky, but it works alright. This Teleprompter is fantastic as a low-cost portable teleprompter solution. December 14, 2015 This Teleprompter is fantastic as a low-cost portable teleprompter solution. I don't think you can be more than about 10 - 15 feet away from the camera when using this, otherwise you have trouble reading the print on the screen. Also, the app from Parrot is just terrible -- text scrolls way too fast. I used another app for my Galaxy S6 and it works well enough (there is room for innovation here).For what it was designed for, it works fantastically. I wouldn't purchase this if you have poor eyesight because it is basically like trying to read text off your smartphone at 10 feet or so. Not the easiest if you don't have sharp vision.In regards to build quality (which has been mentioned elsewhere) I seem to have received a sturdy unit. I don't see any issues with the build quality, but I could see how it could fall apart pretty easy if it gets banged hard. I just keep it secured in a padded laptop case while traveling along with some of my other more fragile gear and it seems fine :). Best money I've ever spent October 12, 2015 This thing has saved my life. I script and record upwards of 2-3 videos per week, performing most without any form of rehearsal or memorization. The Parrot is easy to set up (make sure you get the correct adapter for your lens) and use. I strongly suggest NOT using their app - but using PromptSmart (iOS) which will listen to your performance and scroll the text in real time without the need of an assistant. I fan't fault them for their free app though - because the unit itself is amazing. I've been using this for a month so far with no problems! There is no hint of text picked up by the camera, and best yet - the Parrot seemingly doesn't cut the amount of light entering the camera.Fair warning. This is a tight fit for an iPhone 6 in a battery case. The Parrot is made of plastic, and an overzealous stretch or squeeze could damage the unit! | 62% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Four Star Reviews: | 11% Improves the quality of your video content. Great teleprompter at a reasonable cost. May 16, 2016 When used in combination with the parrot teleprompter app it works great. The spring clips are a little tough its also a good idea to either have a screen protector on the phone or a case that stops the clamps touching the screen. You also need to make sure you get the right adapter for your video camera. I am using this with a cannon vixia video camera not the advertised SLR with the right adapters. Functions Great - Tricky to Install March 26, 2016 This is the perfect companion to my Nikon D3300 DSLR camera. Just use this combo with proper lighting, a green screen, and video-editing software (we use Camtasia) and you'll have your own personal recording and production studio.I took off one star because the glue that holds the mirror in place is uneven and I'm a little concerned that it might not hold, as several people have already reported. In addition, it's a bit tricky to screw on to the lens and secure the phone to the device. But, once it's in place, it works great. Great, but 1 problem August 10, 2015 Works well...a great simple solution.I was able to use this with both my iPhone and Nexus 7 (decreasing the margins helps keep the Nexus 7 on the teleprompter)However, I was not able to get the iPhone to work with my blue tooth keyboard in the Parrot app. The keyboard worked just fine while controlling the Parrot app on the Nexus 7, but for some reason, the iPhone won't respond. If you are working with a serious client, then having remote control over the app is a MUST (if you are using this for yourself, and don't mind getting up and scrolling through your phone while it's in the teleprompter, then you are fine)Hopefully the iPhone app can get fixed. (they said it was fixed by now, but it still didn't work for me :( | 14% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Three Star Reviews: | 14% Glue SUCKS! January 2, 2016 It works great, however...the glue that holds the glass sucks. The glass came off already with less than 1 month use. The promoter must have gotten banged up in transport to a shoot. Used hot glue to adhere the glass back to the promoter. Other than that, great product. | 8% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Two Star Reviews: | 4% Could be better June 21, 2016 This didn't work for my canon xf200 until I got the fotodiox extender ring. Also, there's a little nub on the back that keeps the unit from spinning that broke off during my first attempt at using. Wrote to the company and received no reply. In the end it did its job. Hopefully someone will build a better version of this mousetrap. | 5% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
One Star Reviews: | 14% Great idea/poor execution. SAVE YOUR MONEY! October 1, 2015 Not only will this scratch your phone, trying to shove it in the slots, the screen is too small and the software is not feasible. This was an incredible waste of money. Seeing that I got a professional light kit with lights, umbrellas, and a case for $45, this plastic box should be worth no more than $25. This is a con job at its best. They know that there is a teleprompter gap, and hope that our need for one will force you to buy it, and deal with the crappiness of the product. I hope CowboyStudio or some other company makes a better one quickly. It needs to be tablet sized with a screw mount (unlike the coil and fly paper that is used to scratch the face off of your phone). Looks like this glass reflector it attached with some silicon adhesive September 21, 2015 I haven't even used the product as intended, and I already have a problem. I take the teleprompter out of the box and install it on my camera, and the very first time I go to use it, the glass falls out. Looks like this glass reflector it attached with some silicon adhesive. Well, this isn't constructed very well to have it fall out the second I use it. The glass fell on the floor and scratched. It's probably still usable, but very disappointed that I'll have to re-glue the glass in place. For the price, I wouldn't recommend this, due to the cheap construction. Terrible - what's with all the 5 star reviews? 77mm Kit Purchased August 19, 2015 This thing sucks. I'm assuming 5 star reviews didn't actually use the teleprompter. The screen is tiny and the app is glitchy as hell. I used it with an iPhone 6 and it was almost impossible to adjust the speed and the text size. It would consistently default to "copy" and "paste" when the screen was touched. The text size would jump to huge or tiny but not much in between. The speed would be too fast or too slow, nothing in between. My advice is to spend more money on a better teleprompter and avoid the frustration of this POS. | 11% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
