RODE NTG3 Broadcast Shotgun Microphone
The RODE NTG3 is a broadcast shotgun microphone. Its RF-bias design makes it highly resistant to moisture and condensation, so it suits outdoor shoots in adverse conditions.
The sound is rich and warm, with a tightly controlled supercardioid pattern and no coloration off-axis. Its natural tone and punch also serve voice-over work across a wide range of voice types. The mic weighs 5.75 ounces, and its equivalent noise level is 13 dBA.
Good to Know
The NTG3 runs on 48V phantom power and needs at least 5 mA of current. Most portable wireless transmitters supply only 4 mA at 48V, which is not enough to power it.
