RODE NT-G1 Condenser shortgun microphone

The new RODE NTG-1 is a lightweight condenser shotgun microphone, specifically
designed for professional applications within the film, video, television, voice-over and
ENG industries.
The NTG-1 provides an electronically balanced output stage and operates on 48 V to
the P48 standard. The NTG-1 offers wide bandwidth and a controlled polar response
coupled with low noise SMT electronics. The NTG-1 is extremely lightweight making it
ideal for mounting directly to video cameras (with optional accessories) or a Boom pole.
The NTG-1 comes complete with mount and windshield. The supplied windscreen effectively
suppresses wind noise when recording outdoors in moderate conditions. Optional accessories
are available for more demanding applications.

SPECIFICATIONS:
Features:
Broadcast sound quality. Low noise circuitry. Condenser transducer. Rugged metal construction.
Low weight: 105 grams approx. . Low handling noise. Supplied with stand mount, zip pouch and
windshield. Designed & manufactured in Australia. Full 2 year guarantee.
Operation power:
The NTG-1 is designed to operate from standard P48 phantom power. The NTG-1 will
operate between 44 V to 52 V applied with positive polarity to pin 2 and pin 3 via the

Designed for video production and broadcast (ENG/EFP) audio acquisition, the AT8015 provides the narrow acceptance angle desirable for long-distance sound pickup, along with excellent sound rejection from the sides and rear of mic. The roll-off position reduces the pickup of low-frequency ambient noise (such as traffic, air-handling systems, etc.), room reverberation and mechanically coupled vibrations.

Audio-Technica's AT897 is designed for field audio acquisition in film/TV/video production, professional recording, wildlife recording and broadcast applications. It mounts conveniently on a DV camcorder without adding noticeable heft, and remains out of the frame even with compact digital cameras. This high-performance short shotgun offers outstanding long-distance audio pickup due to narrow acceptance angle of line + gradient design. It also features smooth, natural-sounding on-axis audio quality and excellent off-axis rejection of sound arriving from the sides and rear of mic.

Clear, directional audio on the GO!

Compact and light weight by design, the VideoMic GO delivers clear, crisp, directional audio with incredible ease of use. Its tight pickup area focuses directly in front of the microphone and reduces other surrounding sounds, ensuring that your subject is isolated from distracting background noise.

The integrated Rycote® Lyre® shock mount isolates your microphone from bumps and vibrations that could otherwise interfere with your sound.

Constructed from a single piece of hard-wearing thermoplastic, the Lyre® provides superior acoustic suspension to traditional elastic solutions, and will never wear out, sag or snap.

The VideoMic GO has no complicated switches or settings and is powered by your camera's external microphone input, requiring no batteries to operate, ensuring you never miss a great shot.
