NTG2 : An excellent broadcast-quality microphone

The NTG2 is an excellent broadcast quality microphone. And the price is very reasonable for it here. It works well both indoors and outdoors in my experience, if using indoors you may have to place it a bit closer to your subject but it captures audio for interviews with broadcast quality for sure. The phantom power aspect is very useful as is the battery-powered backup. The only slight oddity is that it does not work well if the audio recorder is plugged into the mains -- that way, there is noise on the recording. The construction of the Rode NTG2 feels solid, and since it comes with a 10 year guarantee, you do not need to worry about it breaking down. This is an excellent microphone that works well in a variety of different situations and I have no hesitation in recommending it.
