The Rode NTG-2 is now part of my location recording rig that also includes the Rode Blimp suspension system and the Roe boom pole. My video shows the microphone, blimp, and pole as part of the introduction and then the whole rig used to gather some sound. (For an HD version of the video, see my YouTube channel, lenswork4.) No editing of the sound was conducted as part of the video; it is presented exactly as recorded by the mic directly into my Canon XF100 camera. In the video, you'll see the unit in the frame picking up sound from a helicopter on a breezy day, then a few other examples indoors and out. The NTG-2 itself is an excellent mic for recording location sound. It's pick-up pattern is focused enough to use for interviews where you may not be able to control all surrounding noise. You can keep it focused on your subject, especially with the Blimp GREATLY reducing wind noise. I'm now using it to gather "wild" sound to build a library of sound effects used in my productions as well as to improve the quality of my location interviews. The mic also offers dual power, either through the XLR cable or via a AA battery. I highly recommend this entire outfit for its reasonable price, good performance, and as a great way to improve your videos by getting better audio.
