Rode NTG5 Location Recording Kit

Details

Revolutionary Acoustic Design

The NTG5s body design has been completely overhauled, with circular acoustic ports replacing the linear slots found in other shotgun mics. The revolutionary design the result of many months of specialised testing delivers unmatched acoustic transparency, and a natural, uncoloured sound that will sound superb in a wide variety of applications.

A Boom Operators Dream

The NTG5 features a short, super-lightweight aluminium body (just 76g!), making it one of the most compact professional shotgun mics out there a dream for boom operators who find themselves on long shoots, or filmmakers and sound recordists looking for a more portable and lightweight rig that delivers broadcast-grade audio.

The Perfect Location Recording Mic

With a tightly controlled frequency response, low self-noise, highly directional supercardioid polar pattern, and smooth off-axis response, the NTG5 sounds spectacular in a wide variety of applications, while RF-bias technology and conformal coating ensure superior performance in harsh environmental conditions. Its the perfect mic for location recording and demanding filmmaking scenarios where superlative audio is imperative. No excuses.
