RODENTG4 Supercardioid Condenser Shotgun Microphone
1/3
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
RODE’s NTG4 is a directional, supercardioid condenser shotgun microphone for broadcast-quality recording in on-camera and boom-mounted setups. Controls for the high-pass filter, pad, and high-frequency boost are switched directly on the mic body, and their selected states remain stored after power-off. Its condenser capsule is described as having a low noise floor, higher sensitivity, and a rich, smooth character, giving it a focused toolset for location-oriented recording workflows.
Strong match
Who this is for
- On-camera recording setups that call for a directional condenser shotgun microphone.
