The Rode NTG4 and the NTG4+ are two really useful mics being shotguns and very directional. The only difference between the two is the NTG4+ has an internal battery so that one is even more useful if you want to go mobile. For people who don't want an internal battery but want battery power, the Sennheiser MKE600 is excellent and runs on an AA battery as well as phantom power.
Shotgun mics are excellent for video because their coverage focuses on the direction of the lens and rejects side and back pretty well. They can be used for booming although you need to check for any 'phasing' effects that can happen from wall reflections. Basically, indoors, a pencil mic or short shotgun is better. The NTG4 is a short shotgun and I do get great results with it indoors.
