RODE NTG5 KIT | Ultra-lightweight Shotgun Microphone Kit Designed for Film and Video Sound Recording

Revolutionary Acoustic Design, Extremely Lightweight, a Broadcast-Grade Shotgun Microphone for Any Demanding Shooting Environment.

The RODE NTG5 KIT is a professional-grade Shotgun Condenser Microphone kit from RODE, featuring a revolutionary annular line tube acoustic design, an extremely lightweight 76g aluminum body, and ultra-low 10dBA Self-noise. It is designed for the most demanding film and video recording and outdoor sound capture tasks, delivering pure, transparent, and uncolored sound performance.

Compared to traditional shotgun microphones with linear slots, the NTG5's circular acoustic port design offers unparalleled acoustic transparency, resulting in more natural, uncolored broadcast-grade audio quality. Its RF-bias technology and conformal coating ensure stable and reliable sound capture even in harsh environments such as high humidity, extreme cold, or dust.

RODE NTG5 KIT Frequently Asked Questions FAQ

Q: Can the RODE NTG5 Shotgun Condenser Microphone Kit be directly connected to a camera?

▼

A: No. The NTG5 uses an XLR Connector and requires 48V Phantom Power. It needs to be connected to a camera via a recorder, mixer, or audio adapter with XLR input and Phantom Power capabilities.

Q: What are the main differences between the NTG5 and RODE's classic NTG3?

▼

A: The NTG5 is shorter and lighter (76g vs 163g) and features a new annular acoustic design for a more natural sound. The NTG3 has a wider Frequency Response (40Hz-20kHz) with deeper low-frequency response.

Q: Is the NTG5 KIT suitable for beginners?

▼

A: If you are a serious beginner in film and video creation and already own or plan to purchase professional recording equipment, the NTG5 is an excellent investment. However, if you are looking for a simple direct-to-camera solution, consider the VideoMic series.

Q: Can the included PG2-R grip be mounted on a microphone stand?

▼

A: Yes. The PG2-R grip has a standard 3/8" thread at the bottom, allowing it to be directly mounted on a boom pole or attached to a regular microphone stand via an adapter.
