Rode NTG5 shotgun mic - What's in the box and audio sample

616 views 4 weeks ago

The Rode NTG5 is the newest broadcast quality shotgun microphone from Rode. It's a short shotgun microphone, designed for use on location and in small spaces.

As a location microphone, it's weather resistant and the electronics inside the unit are completely sealed from rain and moisture.

I'll have a full review coming to DIYPhotography.net in the coming weeks, but I wanted to get a quick sample recording up and show you guys what ccomes in the Rode NTG5 Location Recording Kit.
