RODE NTG5 short shotgun microphone offers 10 dBA self-noise, supercardioid pattern, and moisture-resistant RF-bias design for broadcast-quality location audio.

The **RODE NTG5 Moisture-Resistant Short Shotgun Microphone** is a professional broadcast-grade condenser shotgun mic engineered for indie films, TV productions, and documentaries. Featuring an ultralow self-noise of just 10 dBA and a supercardioid polar pattern with revolutionary circular acoustic ports, the NTG5 delivers stunningly transparent, natural audio whether you are recording on a studio set or in demanding outdoor environments.

Built for real-world location recording, the NTG5 combines RF-bias technology and conformal coating to resist moisture, condensation, cold, and dust with uncompromising reliability. Its ultrahigh sensitivity means your preamp needs less gain, and the clean, switch-free design lets you focus entirely on capturing the perfect take — not adjusting settings.

### Frequently asked questions

**Is the RODE NTG5 suitable for outdoor filming in humid or rainy conditions?**
Yes. The NTG5 uses RF-bias technology and a conformal coating that provide excellent resistance to moisture, condensation, cold, and dust, making it reliable for outdoor shoots in humid or adverse weather conditions.

**What phantom power does the RODE NTG5 require, and what recorders is it compatible with?**
The NTG5 requires 48V DC phantom power delivered via its 3-pin XLR output. It is compatible with a wide range of handheld audio recorders, field recorders, mixer adapters, and built-in preamps found on many camcorders and cinema cameras.

**How does the RODE NTG5 compare to the NTG3 in size and sound character?**
The NTG5 is shorter and lighter than the NTG3 with an 8-inch compact body, and it features a flatter bass response for a more natural, uncolored sound. Its circular acoustic ports provide a transparent tone with gentle high-frequency presence and rumble-reducing low-bass attenuation.
