Rode NTG5 Kit 5-stars Reviews

Great mic kit for a reasonable price

Great sensitivity and low self noise. It a short shotgun, sturdy but surprisingly light.

With a pretty flat response lightly tailored for the human voice.

One of the best shotgun mic

Compare to ntg3, this sounds amazing. Flat, uncolored sound. Good for film and interview.

Very Happy with my NTG5

On st. Patricks Day, Fermoy usually has about 1,400 participants in their parade with about 4,000 watching. This year (2020), because of COVID-19, we had no parade. Instead, we raised the national flag in the Square, while a trumpeter played the National Anthem and the Fields of Athenry. I used the NTG5 and a Zoom H6 to record the sound and an iPhone7 to record the video. You can see the result here. >

It was brilliant at filtering out the passing traffic. Totally delighted with it.
