Following the RødeLink digital wireless system, Røde has announced the Newsshooter Kit.
A wireless stablemate to the already available Filmmaker Kit (which includes a camera mounted receiver (RX-CAM), beltpack transmitter (TX-Belt) and broadcast-grade lavalier microphone) the Newsshooter Kit features a camera-mounted transmitter and the new XLR transmitter (TX-XLR). The Newsshooter Kit provides everything needed for electronic news-gathering and factual content capture.
The kit easily connects to handheld presentation microphones and shotgun microphones, via a 3.5mm audio input and headphone output. Providing one-touch pairing with the RødeLink receiver and supplying P48 phantom power, the unit can be powered by two AA, NP-F batteries or continuously via Micro USB.
‘We understand this is a huge need for our customers and we’re glad to be fulfilling it,’ says Røde Global Director of Sales & Marketin, Damien Wilson
The Newsshooter Kit is now shipping.
