The Rode Mini Boompole is a compact, lightweight solution to electronic-news-gathering (ENG) and field recording applications that do not necessarily require a long boompole. The Mini Boompole features a fully extended length of 81-inches and 33-inches when contracted. A 3/8-inch stud easily attaches to compatible microphone mounts such as the Rode SM3, SM4 and SM5 shockmounts.
