Dual Powered Directional Condenser
The new RODE NTG-2 is a lightweight condenser shotgun microphone, designed for professional applications within the film, video, television and production industries.
The NTG-2 provides a balanced low impedance output stage and operates either from an internal 1.5 V battery (AA) or 48 V to the P48 standard. A wide bandwidth and controlled polar response coupled with low noise SMT electronics, makes the NTG-2 the perfect choice for film, video engineering and voice-over work.
The NTG-2 is extremely lightweight making it ideal for mounting directly to video cameras or on boom poles.

Reviews
"I really wanted to criticise this mic, to try to find fault. I couldn't, which is really frustrating when you consider that it costs a fifth of what my regular boom mic costs." - Digital Media World, 2005
"You get a lot of mic for your money here.. the RØDE NTG-1 and 2 are very respectable microphones and sound incredibly quiet and professional given the reasonable prices." - Audio Media, 2005
"At well under half the price of the K6/ME66 combination and with superb build quality, this is an excellent and highly recommended choice." - Focus Magazine, 2005
Testimonials
"Man, I don't know what it is about that RØDE sound. Even Australians can't believe there is a country that produces some of the finest sounding and cost saving microphones on the planet."
- John Petrocelli, Sweetwater Customer Review 2007
