I use four different budget microphone boom poles, all unique to different situations and demands of my everyday work in the outdoors. In this episode I show you each of the four that I use and why, the pros and cons of each, and highlight a few common mistakes that are made when using boom poles. #RODE #NEEWER #MANFROTTO

Been wanting a small short multisection boom pole. Ktek $250 6section boom pole was a perfect product, but I ended up just hacking a lowel kit reverse stand (yellow/brown one) removing the feet and that has been comically stellar. I only use it for one man band gigs where I have all my light stands (7-8 reverse stands) in a husky bag, so now my "boom pole" fits easily and a no brainer.

I did try it on a shoot but it ended up being too awkward and wobbly. I think it's more suited for a very light LED light

we need a solution for our church when an audience member wants to comment, the usher will hold the wireless mic for them (so they're not handling the mics). Could any of these options work for this type of use? the reach would be considerable up to 6 or 7 feet (for when they're far into the row of the pew)

does the mic stay tight on the neewer? Some other video shows it moving around. It was like it wasn't tight

Good basic overview of each. I agree that the Rode locks are... a lot less desirable. I'm glad that you say you can't say what kind of boom pole to get. I always say - the wand chooses the wizard and the boom pole chooses the boom op. A couple of corrections. You don't need to strap a cable to the boom. Secure the cable to the microphone head end of the boom, hold the cable at the butt end of the boom and then twist the boom around a few times. This pulls the cable tight to the boom yet still allows you retract the boom as needed quickly. What kinds of booms do I use? Mostly Ambient QS, QSM and QP-5150. I own 16 boom poles and all of them are premium except two cheaper ones that I can't stand. On my channel I do a lot of pro sound topics. Check it out if interested.

That's a great tip about twisting the pole! Way faster 👍
