NTG2 : A good starter shotgun mike
I used for location boom miking for short video productions.
The good- needs phantom but can use AA, this is really convenient as my recorder flies through batteries when supplying phantom power.
Sound quality is very good for the price, in my humble opinion you would need to spend a minimum of three times the amount to hear a leap in sound quality. Audiophiles will differ, but at this price range it's really good.
Side rejection is very good, rear rejection not so good, do not use it in confined spaces, you will be overwhelmed by reflections.
I considered the cheaper NTG1, which is also shorter but no AA option, spend the extra and go for this. You'll thank yourself
