Using a technology known as RF-bias true condenser RØDE NTG-3 is almost completely resistant to moisture, making it the only option when recording in any demanding environments where condensation is an issue. It delivers superior broadcast sound quality with extremely low handling noise in a supercardiod polar pattern designed to withstand adverse environmental conditions. NTG-3 has a high level of immunity to radio frequency interference and provides 50% less self-noise than the majority of shotgun microphones with high Sensitivity.
Product Features in Detail
Super-cardioid shotgun microphone
The RØDE NTG3 super-cardioid shotgun microphone is designed for professional use on film, television, electronic news gathering and wherever high-resolution broadcast audio is required.
RF bias technology
As RØDE's premier directional microphone the NTG3 exhibits superlative audio quality with a rich, warm quality and a full frequency response. Its RF bias technology makes it almost completely resistant to moisture, making it the only option when recording in demanding environments where condensation is an issue.
Solid brass
Machined from solid brass and available in either anti-glare, nickel-plated finish or matte black (NTG3B), the NTG3 is incredibly robust while remaining light weight.
Precise pattern
Its precise yet forgiving polar pattern ensures that whether used on-camera or on a boom pole, the NTG3 will capture audio clearly every time.
Durable aluminum storage cylinder
A durable aluminum storage cylinder is supplied to provide the ultimate protection for the NTG3 while in storage and transport. Tightly sealed at both ends the cylinder is highly weatherproof, adding to the microphone's rugged performance credentials.
The RØDE NTG-3 Microphone is designed and made in Australia.
