• We strongly suggest the use of high quality XLR

cables, using the shortest cable length possible

to ensure minimal noise interference between

the microphone output and the camera/recorder

input.

• The NTG-3 features a custom designed XLR

connector that is specially designed to reduce

susceptibility to RF interference from devices such

as cell phones.

• When mounting the microphone in a mic stand

or shock/suspension mount you must ensure that

you do not block any of the slots on the side of the

microphone (as illustrated below).

Obstructing these slots will affect the sound quality

and the polar pattern (directional qualities).

• The NTG-3 is designed for operation within

demanding environments, where the traditional

condenser microphone would fail. However all due

care should be taken to protect the microphone

body itself from high levels of moisture or dust.

For maximum protection please store the NTG-3 in

the supplied storage cylinder when not in use.
