Really Right Stuff Boom Poles Compared to K-Tek and RODE Boom Poles
In today’s episode, we look at microphone boom poles for production sound for film and video, specifically, two new boom poles from Really Right Stuff, two poles from K-tek, and a more budget oriented pole from RODE.
Really Right Stuff started as a company producing L-brackets and tripods for photography cameras. Their ethos is to provide very high quality products which have been thoughtfully designed with clever features which make the user’s craft more enjoyable. And now, they are producing products for cinema, including boom poles and cinema camera tripods and fluid heads.
Really Right Stuff loaned their poles to me for 4 weeks. I do not get to keep these poles. They have not paid me to produce this video and have not reviewed it prior to posting. All opinions shared here are my own.
If you’d like to learn how to make great dialogue audio for your film and video projects, please have a look at my courses including processing dialogue audio in Adobe Audition and DaVinci Resolve/Fairlight, recording sound, how to use the Zoom F4, F8, and F8n, and how to get the most from the Sound Devices MixPre series of recorders.
