Rode NTG2 Shotgun Microphone — supercardioid condenser with 18 dBA self-noise, 80 Hz low-cut filter, and AA battery or 48V phantom power for professional on-location audio.

The **Rode NTG2 Shotgun Microphone** is a professional-grade condenser microphone engineered for indie filmmakers, TV productions, and documentary crews who demand broadcast-quality audio in any environment. With its supercardioid polar pattern, ultra-low self-noise of just 18 dBA, and flexible dual-power support via 48V phantom power or a single AA battery, the NTG2 is the go-to on-location sound solution compatible with cameras, field recorders, and boom poles alike.

Built into a rugged yet lightweight 11-inch high-grade aluminum housing finished in hard-wearing epoxy paint, the Rode NTG2 delivers focused front-facing directionality, a selectable 80 Hz low-cut filter to eliminate rumble, and a gentle high-frequency presence boost for crisp, natural dialogue — all while keeping handling noise impressively low for clean recordings whether indoors or in the field.

### Key features

- **Ultra-Low 18 dBA Self-Noise:** The sensitive condenser element captures detailed, hiss-free audio even in quiet environments, making it ideal for dialogue and subtle ambient sound recording.

- **Dual Power Flexibility:** Operates on 48V phantom power or a single AA battery, ensuring compatibility with professional mixers, DSLRs, camcorders, and handheld field recorders without compromise.

- **Supercardioid Polar Pattern:** The 11-inch body combined with a tight supercardioid pickup pattern delivers precise front-facing directionality and strong rejection of off-axis noise and background sounds.

- **Selectable 80 Hz Low-Cut Filter:** Engage the high-pass filter to eliminate low-frequency rumble from wind, traffic, or HVAC systems, keeping your recordings clean and broadcast-ready.

- **Balanced XLR Output for Long Cable Runs:** The 3-pin XLR balanced output minimises interference and signal loss over extended cable runs — a critical advantage on large film and TV sets.

- **Durable Lightweight Build with Included Windscreen:** The hard-wearing epoxy-painted aluminum housing withstands the rigours of location shooting, while the included foam windscreen and mic clip let you get recording straight out of the box.

### Frequently asked questions

**Can I use the Rode NTG2 with a DSLR camera that does not have phantom power?**
Yes. The Rode NTG2 can be powered by a single AA battery, making it fully compatible with DSLRs, camcorders, and any recorder that does not supply 48V phantom power — no external power source required.

**What is the self-noise level of the Rode NTG2 and is it suitable for quiet dialogue recording?**
The NTG2 has a self-noise of just 18 dBA, which is low enough for clean dialogue, voiceover, and ambient sound recording without the background hiss common in budget microphones.

**Can the Rode NTG2 be mounted on a boom pole, and what accessories are recommended?**
Yes. The NTG2 includes a mic clip for boom pole or stand mounting. For enhanced vibration isolation, Rode recommends the SM4-R shockmount or PG2-R pistol grip (sold separately), and the Rode Blimp furry windshield for maximum wind and handling noise rejection outdoors.
