RODE NTG3B Moisture-Resistant Shotgun Microphone – Black

For your next independent film, TV show, or documentary project, use the Rode NTG3B moisture-resistant shotgun microphone to record broadcast-quality sound both indoors and outdoors. Expert-level features like reduced handling noise, improved immunity to radio frequency interference, and low-noise circuitry lessen the need for audio restoration and repair in postproduction.

Because of its high sensitivity, the NTG3B can generate powerful output levels without requiring your mic preamp to use excessive gain. Sonically, the NTG3B produces consistently clear sound, partly because of its low bass attenuation that reduces rumble and its gradual rise in high frequencies. You can quickly set up and concentrate on the sound instead of fumbling with different mic settings thanks to its switch- and dial-free design. The anti-glare finish on the solid brass housing keeps reflections out of the picture while also making it lightweight and long-lasting.

The NTG3B was designed with low handling noise, improved immunity to radio frequency interference, and broadcast-quality sound in mind. In addition, compared to most camera-mount shotgun microphones, its balanced output permits longer cable runs.

The supercardioid polar pattern and the 10″ long body of the NTG3B combine to produce maximum rejection behind the mic and focused on-axis directionality. Its highly sensitive condenser element and low self-noise of 13 dBA convey detailed audio free of the hiss that accompanies many inexpensive microphones.
