Rode NTG3 Shotgun Broadcast Microphone
The Rode NTG3 is a moisture-resistant super-cardiod shotgun microphone. Professional features, such as low-noise circuitry, enhanced immunity to radio frequency interference and minimal handling noise, reduce the need for audio editing in post-production.
The high sensitivity of the NTG3 allows you to produce high output levels without having to apply extreme gain to the mic preamp. Sonically, the NTG3 delivers a clear sound due, in part, to its smooth high-frequency gain and attenuation of low frequencies, which reduces noise. Its switch-free, adjustment-free design allows you to set it up quickly and focus on the sound. The solid brass housing is durable and lightweight, and its anti-reflective finish prevents glare in the socket.
SUPER-CARDIOID SHOTGUN MICROPHONE IS DESIGNED FOR PROFESSIONAL USE
Super-Cardioid Shotgun Microphone designed for professional use on Film, Television, ENG and wherever high-resolution broadcast audio is required. The NTG3 exhibits superlative audio quality with a rich, warm quality and a full frequency response. Its RF bias technology makes it resistant to moisture, making it a good option when recording in demanding environments.
Machined from solid brass the NTG3 is incredibly robust while remaining light weight. Its precise polar pattern ensures that whether used on-camera or on a boom pole, the NTG3 will capture audio clearly every time. A durable aluminum storage cylinder is supplied to provide protection for the NTG3 while in storage and transport. Tightly sealed at both ends the cylinder is highly weatherproof, adding to the microphone's rugged performance credentials.
