About This

• FULL BOOM OP RIG — 10.6 FT POLE, 32-BIT FLOAT RECORDER, CLIP-MANAGED XLR: Capturing dialogue on location needs more than the shotgun alone — you need a pole long enough to reach the actor, a recorder that won't clip peaks or noise-up whispers, cable clips that silence boom slap, and headphones for real-time monitoring. This bundle pairs the Rode NTG5 with the Zoom F3, the 10.6 ft Boompole, 5 Boompole Clips, a 20-foot XLR, and StreamEye Cans50 headphones. Boom operators, documentary crews, wedding videographers, and indie filmmakers — plug in, boom up, roll sound.
• SHOTGUN MICROPHONE WITH 10 DBA SELF-NOISE AND RF-BIAS RELIABILITY: Built for boom operators, ENG documentary crews, location recordists, and production sound mixers, the NTG5 captures broadcast-grade dialogue at 2.7 oz on the boom — whispered ambience prints with the same headroom as full-voice takes, and the RF-bias capsule shrugs off humidity, dust, and cold that kill traditional condenser shotguns. Reliable signal, every shoot.
• CIRCULAR-PORT ACOUSTIC DESIGN FOR FILMMAKING, DOCUMENTARY, AND ENG: The NTG5's clean-sheet circular-port redesign of the interference principle replaces linear slot ports — tighter directional rejection without harsh tonal coloration, a flatter on-axis curve, and a more natural dialogue tone across the working 80 Hz to 20 kHz band. Less corrective EQ in post, more usable takes.
• 2.7 OZ MIC WEIGHT FOR LONG-SCENE BOOM OPERATION WITHOUT FATIGUE: Most broadcast shotguns weigh 5 to 7 ounces of metal on the operator's wrist all day. The NTG5 is the lightest in its broadcast-grade class — operators report holding it through 90-minute scenes without the wrist-drop fatigue that ruins late takes. Supercardioid pickup with smooth off-axis response handles actors who deliver lines slightly off-mic.
• ZOOM F3 — DUAL A/D CONVERTERS AND 32-BIT FLOAT KILL GAIN-STAGING ON THE BOOM: Two A/D converters run in parallel — one for quiet signals, one for peaks — and the 32-bit float WAV encodes the entire dynamic range. Clipped peaks are recoverable in post; low-level signals amplify without lifting the noise floor. -127 dBu EIN preamps, two locking XLR/TRS combo inputs with +48V phantom, 8+ hours on 2x AA. 3 inches across, 1.7 oz.
