Datavideo TTL-100

Datavideo TTL-100 – Turns TLM-700 into a through-the-lens monitor for natural on-camera eye contact

The Datavideo TTL-100 kit converts your Datavideo TLM-700 series 7" monitor into a through-the-lens (TTL) monitor. It lets you view any HDMI source directly in front of the camera lens so talent and presenters can maintain natural eye contact while seeing the screen content.

What the TTL-100 does

The TTL-100 attaches to a Datavideo TLM-700 series monitor and positions the display so you can see the HDMI feed through the centre of the camera lens. In practice, you can use it for live interviews, remote broadcasts, online presentations and webinars.

For example, you can run a video call in web conferencing software such as Zoom and see your remote guest while still looking straight into the camera. This helps presenters and interviewees appear more natural on camera.
