rode and G2?
I was curious if a boom like this rode ntg2 can be plugged into a transmitter
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...icrophone.html like this senheiser instead of a lav microphone http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...00_Series.html Reason I ask is this, my main plan is to use two lav mics most often, and will buy two sets of senheisers so they are interchangable if something were to malfunction, I am also planning on getting the rode ntg2 to have a boom, and can use it on camera, but more often off, so I was hoping in place of wires I could connect it to a transmitter from one of the sets and use that to transmit the ride to the camera. I know senheiser also has a set which includes a handheld adapter, but was unsure if it was actually needed with a owered mic like that boom, and I am not sure if the rode could actually, with and adapter, plug into the transmitter at all. Thanks. |
I'd get one of the Sennheiser Evolution G2 sets with the plug on transmitter. The model is called the EW100ENG G2. For $100 more you get the plug on transmitter which you can use directly on the back of the mic or plugged into a mixer. I can't see having an XLR to 1/8" cable going from a shotgun to a body pack transmitter. It would cause a lot of stress on that cable if it were flung around. And look pretty goofy too :)

The SKP 100 G2 does NOT provide phantom power.. you'll need the SKP 500.

Jeffrey is correct the Sennheiser SKP 100 does not supply Phantom Power.
Fortunately, the RODE NTG-2 does not require phantom and can be self powered internally via a single "AA" battery. |
Yes, senheiser does make an adapter for this purpose to connect any powered boom to a transmitter pack so you do not need to mic transmitter. They carry them at B&H, not for phantom powered mics of course.
