Inexpensive countdown clock for on-camera talent
I’m looking for an inexpensive way to put a large countdown display near the camera lens so on-camera talent will know how much time they have. Something as simple as a stopwatch or kitchen timer with a large external display would be perfect. I know ESE makes some great systems for this, but they seem a little expensive for what they are. I’d prefer to keep it under $250.
Thanks in advance!

Get a Gralab timer. They are analog, but very easy to see across a room. And unlike a digital, very fast to set. They are priced well under your budget.

https://www.sstdigitalmedia.comI have a system, it has stuff in it, and stuff hooked to it. I have a camera, it can record stuff. I read the manuals, and know how to use this stuff and lots of other stuff too.
You should be suitably impressed… -

And given how few still photography darkrooms are still in use these days, you can probably EASILY find one on eBay or elsewhere for very little money.
Great suggestion, Scott!
