Does Rode NTG need phantom power?
The NTG-2 requires power to operate. This needs to be supplied via P48V phantom power supply which is available from most professional video cameras or mixing consoles. Additionally you have the option of using an internal 1.5V AA battery.
Is the Rode ntg2 good?
This microphone sounds very good, perhaps the best in its price range. RØDE offers great support and great warranty. Coupled to my Canon XHA1 this mic renders stellar sound capture. I was able to get crisp audio for an indoor interview, with the subject about eight feet away.
What is the difference between a shotgun mic and a boom mic?
Shotgun refers to the polar pattern of the microphone. Shotgun mics are typically a hypercardiod pattern. Boom-mounted shotgun mics let you pick up a focused area, with very little off-axis noise, and their tight polar pattern provides better performances at longer distances than typical condenser microphones.
What is Rode NTG?
The VideoMic NTG is a broadcast-grade, feature-packed shotgun microphone optimised for on-camera use. It features the same revolutionary acoustic design as the NTG5 broadcast shotgun microphone, which delivers unmatched transparency and a natural, uncoloured sound.
How do you charge a Rode NTG?
Charging. The VideoMic NTG’s internal lithium-ion battery can be charged by simply plugging it into any USB power source such as a computer, USB wall socket, or portable power pack. Charging from empty to full takes around two hours.

What is the fluffy thing on a microphone called?
Wind Muff
What is a Wind Muff? The synthetic fur covers on microphones in video production are often referred to as a “dead cat” or “wind muff”. These funny looking covers can block wind from hitting the microphone, therefore reducing the wind noise from being recorded.
What are boom mics good for?
When capturing audio for film, it’s nearly always critical that the microphones remain hidden within the frame or stay out of frame. Boom microphones (the mics at the end of boom poles that point downward from above the frame) provide a very common method of capturing audio on film sets.
What kind of battery does the rode NTG2 use?
The NTG2 operates either from a AA (1.5V) battery or P48 phantom power which can be supplied by professional cameras, audio recorders and power supplies. The battery power option makes the NTG2 ideal for scenarios where the camera does not supply phantom power such as DSLR video.
