Capture quality sound indoors or outside for your next indie film, TV shoot, or documentary project with the Rode NTG1 shotgun microphone. With low handling noise and the ability to endure loud sound sources before distortion, the NTG1 offers a cost-effective solution for recording clean dialogue and sound effects.
The NTG1's elevated sensitivity allows it to produce strong output levels without having to apply extreme gain at your mic preamp. Sonically, the NTG1 delivers consistently clear sound due in part to its gentle rise in high frequencies and its rumble-reducing selectable low-cut filter. The durable and lightweight high-grade aluminum housing is finished in hard-wearing epoxy paint to withstand the stress of location recording.- For Indie Films, TV & Documentaries

Awesome Mic...Just Buy It!
The Rode NTG1 is an epic mic. I am no professional but use this mic for all my camcorder needs. Very light weight, supreme sensitivity and crystal clear recordings! It came in a very nice zippered pouch with a foam cover and a free Dead Cat cover to boot! Very Pleased!
Great mic
Great crisp clear sounds was picking up turkeys gobbling 300 yards away through the woods no problem!
Beyond bang-for-buck
I wouldn't consider myself a professional nor have I experience with any other shotguns. HOWEVER, I don't need to be a pro to tell that the noise level is very low and that this mic produces very good sound. I bought it for personal projects that I won't be making money on and it's been worth every dollar (well, shekel)! It's small and light which makes putting on a camera simple and easy. I just finished filming an indie short with it and got great results. I was able to get very usable sound from about 10' away. If you're not a pro, like myself, and you're hesitant about this one I'd say go for it! I can't recommend it enough!
Love it!
My sound guy absolutely loved using this mic on our last shoot.
I will buy this product again when I get my next camcorder
A great complimentary accessory for my Sony HXR-NX100. Works great for recording our chorus from the back of the auditorium.
IT WORKS!
I am pleased.
NTG1 love!
Love this mic for recording. Works great on a boom or shoe mounted. Love the quality of the mic and of the sound I get out of it.
