Featuring a revolutionary acoustic design, tightly controlled frequency response, smooth off-axis response, and very low self-noise (just 10dBA), the NTG5 sounds spectacular in a wide variety of applications, particularly location recording and filmmaking scenarios where superlative audio is imperative. 

FEATURES

• Revolutionary acoustic design, delivering a natural, uncoloured sound.

• Extremely lightweight (just 76g), and short in length (just 203mm)

• Tailored frequency response and very low self-noise of just 10dBA

• Highly directional supercardioid polar pattern and smooth off-axis response

• RF-bias technology and conformal coating ensure superior performance in adverse environmental conditions

• Comes in a complete location recording kit with WS10 windshield, PG2-R pistol grip and other accessories

Revolutionary Acoustic Design
The NTG5 features a revolutionary acoustic design unlike any other shotgun microphone. Circular acoustic perforations are utilised in place of  linear slots, delivering greater acoustic transparency and a natural, uncoloured sound for superb performance in a wide variety of recording applications. 

A Boom Operator’s Dream
The NTG5 features a short, super-lightweight aluminium body (just 76g!), making it one of the most compact professional shotgun mics available – a dream for boom operators who find themselves on long shoots, or filmmakers and sound recordists looking for a more portable and lightweight rig that delivers spectacular, broadcast-grade audio.
