There have been positive reviews about the NTG-8. One reviewer stated that they believe the NTG8 is the best shotgun microphone available in its price range. They are impressed by its quality and are tempted to purchase it, even though they already own other high-quality microphones. The reviewer believes that investing in professional audio equipment is important and that the NTG-8 is the best shotgun microphone they have ever handled.
The NTG-8 offers superior broadcast sound quality, high sensitivity, and a supercardioid polar pattern. It has a highly directional polar response and produces natural sounding audio both on and off-axis. This microphone is designed to withstand adverse environmental conditions and has extremely low handling noise. It also has a high level of immunity to radio frequency interference. The NTG-8 is a true condenser microphone with external RF bias. It comes with a weatherproof aluminum cylinder for transport, an SM8 shock mount, and a wind shield.
