AMBIENT QP5130 boom pole

QuickPole Serie 5 - the best and most lightweight boom pole yet!

Boom poles are indispensable to record clear location audio on set and are a key component in every location sound recordist's and boom operator's kit (apart from audio recorders and mics). From feature films to streaming series and documentaries, boom poles help capture dialog and sounds in the best quality possible. A good boom pole should stow away cables and give your mic the necessary support.

Ambient works tirelessly to give you the best boom pole experience possible, and the QuickPole has done a great job to support boom operators all over the world. Now, we've revolutionized the QuickPole with the introduction of the new Series 5 QuickPole boom. Why Series 5? First, because it's a 5-section boom. Second, because it's built with the 5th generation of the boom pole tubes.

Ambient has listened carefully to your feedback and developed this range to satisfy even the pickiest audio pros. Just like its predecessors, the QuickPole S5 is perfectly suited for the professional boom operator and on-location recording: ultra-lightweight, high quality and made from extremely durable material. In short, it's the most advanced carbon fiber boom pole that Ambient has ever developed.

KEY FEATURES:

LIGHT & STURDY

The Series 5 booms combine the best properties of the QXS and the QP series thanks to exciting new tube technology. Ambient uses a custom-made carbon fiber compound with added UHM fiber layering. With this technology, the QuickPole S5 boom pole becomes as sturdy as the QP 4-segments series but is still as lightweight as the QXS 5-segments series.

EASY EXTENDING AND COLLAPSING

On set, you have to work fast. The Series 5 QuickPole addresses that with another new key feature: the new Teflon sheet plus a silicone-lubricated felts that make for silky-smooth extending and collapsing of the boom pole. The telescoping function of the pole works so quickly that you'll be able to capture any sound source. The re-engineered locks give you better grip thanks to the refined knurling and slightly extended length. Ambient has tuned the threading further, with just a quarter turn the locks open and close securely yet lightning fast.

INTERSECTIONAL TWIST PROTECTION

You'll also love the new anti-twist mechanism of the pole-sections: Ambient replaced the retention pin with an innovative serration. The lock pieces automatically fall into place when you disassemble and reassemble your pole for cleaning or maintenance - what used to be an easy process has become effortless.

FEATURES:

• custom-made carbon fiber compound
• silky-smooth extending and collapsing
• re-engineered locks
• intersectional twist protection
• cable retrofitting
