RODE SHOTGUN MICROPHONES

RODE SHOTGUN MICROPHONES
A range of affordable short and full length shotgun microphones and complementary
accessories, suitable for broadcast video and theatre applications. The range includes
some entry-level companions for many camcorders, and higher performance models,
popular with broadcasters.
Rode VideoMic
Designed for use with video camcorders, the VideoMic uses a true externallypolarised
capsule and features a tough ABS construction. An integrated
suspension-mount provides a very high level of mechanical isolation, eliminating
virtually all motor noise, while a cold-shoe fitting is included to ensure fast, easy
camcorder mounting. The windshield reduces unwanted wind noise, pad switches
allow -10 and -20dB attenuation and a switched high-pass filter gives the flexibility to
record in most environments.
The VideoMic has a stereo mic level output and a single PP3 battery provides 100
hours of continuous operation. The captive cable terminates in a convenient rightangled
3.5mm 3-pole jack plug and is unobtrusive to camcorder operation when
connected.
Included accessories: WSVM foam windshield.
Optional accessories: Deadcat wind-cover, tripod table stand, PG1 pistol grip, VXLR
adapter, VC1 extension cable.
Rode VideoMic Pro
Similar to the standard VideoMic, the Pro version offers the same circuitry and
functions as standard, but in a much more compact and lightweight profile. A PP3
battery provides 70 hours of continuous operation. Length 150mm. Weight 85g.
Included accessories: WSVMP foam windshield.
Optional accessories: PG1 pistol grip, Deadcat VMP wind-cover, Boompole, Tripod
table stand, VXLR adapter, VC1 extension cable.
Rode NTG-1 and NTG-2
Lightweight short shotgun microphones featuring true externally-polarised condenser
capsules. A wide bandwidth and controlled polar response, coupled with low-noise
electronics, delivers excellent results for film and broadcast video applications. The
NTG-1 is 48V phantom powered, with integral switchable HP filter. The NTG-2 has the
same specifications as the NTG-1, but with the added flexibility of battery powering
(via a single 1.5V AA cell) as well as standard 48V phantom power. Both have XLR-3
connectors.
Included accessories: RM5 stand adapter, ZP1 zip pouch and WSVM foam
windshield.
Optional accessories: Blimp suspension basket windshield. WS6 Deluxe windshield.
Deadcat wind-cover. NTSM3, NTSM4, NTSM5 suspension mounts. PG2 shockmount
pistol grip. Boompole.
Rode NTG-3
Precision shotgun microphone featuring true externally RF-biased condenser
capsules, which make the NTG-3 ‘almost completely resistant to moisture’, a positive
bonus when recording in adverse, condensation-rich environments. A wide
bandwidth and more controlled polar response than the NTG-1 and NTG-2, coupled
with low-noise electronics, and increased output, delivers excellent results for location
film and broadcast video applications, the microphone boasts ‘50% less self-noise
than the majority of shotgun microphones’. The NTG-3 is 48V phantom powered (44-
52V, minimum 5mA), with a 3-pin XLR connector.
Included accessories: RCNTG3 water resistant storage container, RM5 microphone
stand adapter, ZP2 zip pouch and WSNTG3 foam windshield.
Optional accessories: Blimp suspension basket windshield. WS7 Deluxe windshield.
Deadcat wind-cover. NTSM3, NTSM4, NTSM5 suspension mounts. PG2 shockmount
pistol grip. Boompole.
