News Boom Pole
The G5 News Boom Pole has been designed for use in the demanding world of TV news broadcasting. The G5 News Boom Pole uses some of the most advanced engineering design techniques and robust materials available today.
Our patented locking system is completely different in design from all other boom poles on the market. To remove weight and ease the cleaning of the pole, the locking system uses no metal components. The locking system can then be stripped down completely for cleaning as required.
Whereas on all existing pole designs fine metal threads are used, the G5 News boom pole instead uses a triple-cam lock system. This allows for a minimal twist to lock/unlock and makes the pole far less likely to jam when dirty.
The pole can be supplied with an internal coiled cable as an option. The coiled cable & connectors have all been chosen for their high quality. At present there is only a straight exit XLR output.
