Featuring a groundbreaking acoustic port design providing a superior progressive wave interference, ultra-lightweight construction and crystal clear, broadcast-grade sound, the NTG5 is a revolution in shotgun microphone design aimed at the professional user.

• Comes in a complete location recording kit with windshield, pistol grip and other accessories – the NTG5 is ready to take into the field right out of the box.
