Rode NTG5 Moisture-Resistant Short Shotgun Microphone

RODE NTG5 Overview

The Rode NTG5, one of the smallest and lightest shotgun microphones available, it raises the bar for location recording professionals. Rode, a well-known pioneer in shotgun mic technology, created the NTG5 to meet the needs of a variety of demanding applications with exceptional performance. You’ll value the NTG5’s durable, incredibly light build and crisp, broadcast-quality audio whether you work in ENG or producing big-budget films. With its innovative acoustic design that substitutes circular ports for linear slots present in traditional shotgun microphones, the NTG5 captures speech and other sound sources with remarkable transparency and a pure, uncolored sound. The NTG5 is a must-have addition to your run pack because to its exceptional low self-noise, supercardioid pickup with smooth off-axis response, and customized, linear frequency response.

Revolutionary design

The shotgun mic has been completely rethought with the NTG5. The microphone’s innovative design, the outcome of months of intense research, is what will catch your attention right away: the circular acoustic perforations running the length of the device. With remarkable acoustic transparency and a pure, uncolored sound, Rode’s annular line tube technology offers exceptional performance in a multitude of applications.

A boom operator’s dream

The NTG5 is a dream for boom operators on long, difficult shoots or for filmmakers and sound mixers looking for a lighter, more portable rig that captures broadcast-grade audio because of its short, extremely light aluminum body, which weighs a mere 2.68 ounces. Reliability in challenging conditions is ensured by the conformal coating and RF-bias technology of the NTG5. With the NTG5, you may deploy it anywhere with complete confidence thanks to its exceptional resistance to dust, extreme cold, high humidity, and rainy conditions.
