The NTG-2 is a lightweight condenser shotgun microphone, designed for professional applications within the film, video, television and production industries. The NTG-2 provides a balanced low impedance output stage and operates either from an internal 1.5 V battery (AA) or 48 V to the P48 standard. A wide bandwidth and controlled polar response coupled with low noise SMT electronics, makes the NTG-2 the perfect choice for film, video engineering and voice-over work. The NTG-2 is extremely lightweight making it ideal for mounting directly to video cameras or on boom poles. The NTG-2 comes complete with mount and windshield. The windscreen effectively suppresses wind noise when recording outdoors in moderate conditions. Specifications: Acoustic principle: Line plus Gradient. Directional pattern: Super-Cardioid.

5Quality Sound  Feb 19, 2008
I have my NTG2 connected to a Canon GL2 through a Beachtek XLR adapter, and I think this mic sounds pure and true. In fact, when I monitor my sound it doesn't even seem like I'm listening through the mic. I've used Audio-Technica's AT897, and though it is a decent microphone, I believe that NTG2 is the better choice. Besides the great quality sound, here is a list of why I like it so much:

-Wonderful super-cardioid pick-up pattern
-Well functioning bass roll-off switch (for excessive wind)
-Phantom or battery power
-Max sound input @ 131dB (AT897 only 115dB on battery power)
-Very Durable

There are some things I don't like:
-The battery life is not nearly as good as the AT897
-Need to use a flat-head screwdriver for bass roll-off switch
-Brand sticker is coming off
-Wind screen is just OK

The stock wind screen isn't going to be that great any shotgun mic. And the bass roll-off switch is made to prevent accidental switching. Just keep an extra AA battery in your bag and you'll be happy.

1horrible  Oct 18, 2007
I bought this mic and the recording quality is much worse than the factory mic that came with my Sony PD 170 digital video camera. I get a low feedback noise on the recording when using the mic and the pickup is terrible. I sent it back.
