setup question : Rode NTG2, SignVideo XLR pro et sony consumer camcorder
Hello,
Please could you confirm me my setup idea before buying the material : I wish to add a shotgun micro to my sony minidv consumer camcorder PC330 avec micro-in. I thought of : Rode NTG2 shotgun with battery power to be connected to a sign video xlr pro connected to the camcorder. The rode needs phantom power 48V or 1.5 V battery. Is there a difference in quality between phpower or battery use ? With the battery, will this give line out level ? Okay for setup with battery connection to sign video to camcorder ? Or do you have an alternative for this setup with similar budget ? Thank you alot, Hubertus |

The NTG-2 is a great mic. It is a little hotter with Phantom power than with battery.
Beachtek makes a number of adapters and some models include Phantom power. There's the Rode Video mic to consider unless you are set on XLR. More here: http://dvestore.com/theatre/index.html# |

rode ntg2 and boompole
thank you for the answers. i think to stay with the ntg2 for xlr flexibility and quality built.
one more question: Does the boom pole made by rode is connected directly to the ntg2 or do I have a shock mount either ? thank you |

The RODE NTG-2 includes a mic stand adapter which can thread on to the RODE Boom Pole, but really, you'd want a shock mount with rubber or elastic suspension to isolate the mic. Checkout the RODE SM3 (cold shoe mount or boom pole) SM4 (boom pole 5/8" or 3/8"). |
