Get the Rode VideoMic NTG here: geni.us/3hbz5FP

[@PeterAlanJohnson]

The NTG is a great mic, my favourite of all the mics I own. If you cant afford it, you can get some of its advantages with the Rode Videomic Go 2 (NOT the Videomicro 2)

[@SoundSpeeding]

The VideoMic NTG is a nifty product, but I reckon we an also thank Deity for this existing as they've helped push Rode forward in having to innovate in response!

[@BallysRealm]

100% agree with you. The Diety D3 Pro came out first and it looks like Rode took a design leaf out of their book - but improved on it!
Competition is always healthy and better for us as the consumer as we get better products.

[@NathanSweet]

Great video! When using it via USB, the battery no longer matters right? And I don't need any other cable?

[@hamzahali9295]

Very helpful review
I want to ask, i have both the wireless go and the ntg
when using them simultaneously (ntg plugged into the wireless go) do i need to pay attention on the db level in the receiver of the wireless go or i just need to pay attention to the configuration on the ntg?
Thank you, much appreciated

[@BallysRealm]

Hi Hamzah, I would set the level on the wireless go reciver to low or medium as it will clip at high. I would then set the level on the videomic NTG to low and work your way up until you have a decent level. Remember you can always turn the volume up on audio that is too low in post, but you cant recover audio that is distorting or clipping.

[@Newcolonyarts]

it seems using the rode transmitter makes the sound quality drop considerably

[@PeterAlanJohnson]

It shouldn't.
He's using it way too close, and overloading the NTG or transmitter.

[@harsim420]

When you connect the Video mic NTG to the supplied sc10 cable and then to the Rode vc1 to your camera, is there any hissing or buzzing?

[@BallysRealm]

Not that I can notice. I've used it for all my latest videos and I think its very clear.
