Pro Boom Operator Reacts To $60 Neewer NW-088 Boom Pole, Sound Speeds

As a professional boom operator that works in the film industry (here's my IMDB if you want to fact check me: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1147441), I have used boom poles for 12+ hours a day on set for over 2 decades. I've bonded with boom poles, taught others how to use boom poles, tricked out boom poles and even helped manufacturers improve their boom poles so if there's one thing you can trust me on... it's boom poles.

As one of the cheapest boom poles on the market, the Neewer NW-088 isn't expected to be a quality match for a boom pole over 10 times the price but you'd expect it to be pretty decent for $60. Perhaps capable of helping you acquire good sound at the very least, right? In this video I take a deep dive and thoroughly examine the Neewer NW-088 Boom Pole.
