RODE

collapse expand iconDescription

The RØDE NTG-2 is a lightweight, multi-powered condenser shotgun microphone, designed for professional applications within the film, video, television and production industries.

The NTG-2 provides a balanced low impedance output stage and operates either from an internal 1.5V battery (AA) or 48V to the P48 standard. A wide bandwidth and controlled polar response coupled with low noise SMT electronics, makes the NTG-2 the perfect choice for film, video engineering and voice-over work.

The NTG-2 is extremely lightweight making it ideal for mounting directly to video cameras or on boom poles.

    I use this mic for audio in video production. I run it into a Zoom F8 mixer/recorder from a boompole; sometimes with an xlr cable or wireless unit. Great sound, and good battery life. I wrecked my first one and Rode sent a replacement free of charge.

    As soon as I pulled this mic out of the box, the first thing I said was, "Beautiful!" Then I actually hooked it up and through my headphones on. It absolutely is the best shotgun for the money. Most in this price range have a frequency response that cuts you off between 40 and 80 Hz. This goes all the way down to 20 Hz with the optional roll off. Perfect for when you need low end frequency for Foley work and the optional roll off comes in very handy when you need to pick up actors lines clearly and without background noise. This is one mic you have to have just to hear it.
