Rode NTG2 Battery or Phantom Powered Condenser Shotgun Microphone - Bundle With H&A 4 -Point Universal Shock Mount, H&A Carbon Fiber Telescoping Boom Pole, H&A Pro Windshield

Because capturing pristine audio is crucial for any professional production, the Rode NTG2 Multi-Powered Shotgun Microphone stands out as a top-tier choice for filmmakers, videographers, and audio professionals. This high-quality, durable condenser shotgun microphone is engineered to deliver full frequency response and exceptional audio transparency, making it an indispensable tool for film, video, and voice-over projects.

The NTG2's supercardioid polar pattern is specifically designed to focus on sound from the front while minimizing noise from the sides and rear, ensuring that your recordings are clear and directional. This feature is particularly beneficial for capturing audio in noisy environments or when recording in a specific location or direction.

Versatility is at the core of the NTG2's design. It can be powered by a standard AA (1.5V) battery, making it a reliable option for on-the-go shooting, especially with DSLR cameras that may not offer phantom power. Alternatively, for longer sessions or when using more advanced equipment, the microphone can utilize P48 phantom power supplied by professional cameras, audio recorders, and power supplies.

The microphone's lightweight build, at just 5.7 oz/161g without the battery, makes it an excellent choice for boom operation, reducing fatigue during extended shoots. To further enhance your audio capture, the NTG2 includes a selectable high-pass filter at 80Hz to eliminate distracting low-frequency sounds like air conditioners and traffic from your recordings.

Included in this professional bundle is the H&A 4-Point Universal Shock Mount, which significantly reduces handling noise, and the H&A Carbon Fiber Telescoping Boom Pole, offering sturdy, lightweight support with an extended reach for dynamic mic placement. To protect your recordings from wind noise, the H&A Pro Windshield is also provided, ensuring that your audio remains clear even in challenging outdoor conditions.

The Rode NTG2 is a testament to innovative audio engineering, designed and made in Australia by a brand synonymous with high-quality audio equipment. With its robust construction and professional-grade performance, the NTG2 is a sound investment for any audio professional seeking to capture audio with precision and clarity.
