Series 5 booms combine the best properties of Ambient's QXS and QP series thanks to new tube technology. With a custom-made carbon fiber compound using added UHM fiber layering, the QuickPole S5 boompole becomes as sturdy as the QP 4-segment series but is still as lightweight as the QXS 5-segment series.

The new Teflon sheet plus silicone-lubricated felts make for fast and smooth extending and collapsing of the boompole. The telescoping function works quickly to help you capture sound, while the re-engineered locks give you better grip thanks to the refined knurling and slightly extended length. Finely tuned threading means that the locks open and close securely with just a quarter turn, for lightning speed on set.

The anti-twist mechanism of the pole sections replaces 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 even easier.

The redesigned tip and bottom end allow for an easy, solder-free cable retrofit. This model is pre-configured with stereo internal cabling.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Is it Mono or Stereo?

A: The Ambient Recording Sound Fish ASF-1 MKII Hydrophone is mono.

Q: 2. What's the battery life on a fully charged NP-50?

A: Because battery life depends on too many factors, manufacturer's rarely list the life. Based on professional experience, battery life is determined under actual use. Therefore it is strongly recommended to have spare batteries. That being said, the life of a L-50 should be an hour or maybe two. You can also use an external power source such as this.

Q: 3. hello does this cable same like Ambient Recording LTC-OUT/EPIC Lockit Timecode Output Cable for Red Epic/Scarlet (16") 5 pin lemo to 4 pin lemo ?

A: This cable is designed for transfer of metadata and specific remote control protocol. We can not guarantee proper functionality if used as an LTC-Output cable. Here is an alternative BH #RECATCL5ML4M.

Q: 4. How do I add an internal cable?

A: The Ambient Recording QP550 QuickPole Series 5 Carbon Fiber 5-Section Boompole is designed to be used with an external cable. It cannot be used with an internal cable. You would need a different boompole that would already come fitted with the internal cable. For example, the K-Tek KE-144CCR Avalon Series Aluminum Boompole (B&H # KTKE144CCR) comes with an internal XLR cable.

Q: 5. Does the TC-out and Sync-out require two different cables or are they the same?

A: A single cable on the output carries timecode and genlock/wordclock.

Q: 6. a recommended distribution amplifier that share TC and genlock with one cable please?

A: A recommended distribution amplifier that could share TC and genlock with one cable on the Ambient Recording ACN-CL Lockit Compact Wireless Timecode Synchronizer would be the AJA C10DA Analog BNC 1x6 Distribution Amplifier, B&H # AJC10DA.

Q: 7. Is it Mono or Stereo?

A: The Ambient Recording Soundfish 2 MKII Compact Hydrophone with Cable is mono.

Q: 8. What's the different between the MkII and the original ASF-1?

A: The molding around the case of the mic has been redesigned.

Q: 9. Will this allow me to jam timecode from a BNC output into a LEMO input?

A: Yes it should. This is a BNC to LEMO 5-Pin Input Cable for Time Code.

Q: 10. It could be used to power the DJI Wireless Follow Focus Motor?

A: I don't think so, since this a custom cable to update firmware and provide power to a Tiny LockIt timecode generator (USB to LEMO 5 pin).

[3/8"-16 Male] Like all Ambient products, well-made. And I don't have to mess with wiring up the fiddly bits of the Lemo connector. 5

Benjamin	14/07/2024
[2.5 lb] Use with both cable and wireless connector on the end of my boom. Exactly what I needed it to do. 5

Norton	08/07/2024

[Twist Lock] Works for me! I like this pole! 5

Adamski	01/06/2024
[Twist Lock] Seems sorry of silly, but wow this is really a great tool. Great addition to the audio kit. I would buy this again and again. Hopefully I won't have to. 5

Dalton	23/05/2024
[Straight] I really like this part, I have bought a few of them for all of my boom poles. I like it because it is nearly weightless and looks very clean. If I have an issue with the color I could just paint it black. I like using these pieces because I feel confident it won't fail and can be used on any boom pole to provide cable isolation. 5

[Removable] Works exactly as I needed for the Cinela Albert (3 channel.) 5

[Straight] It took me years to decide what pole to buy. I’ve used the ktek Klassic a ton for shoots but I never really liked the feel of them. A couple years ago I bought the travel boom by Ambient and it quickly became my “go to” boom for “run and gun” shoots. However, there were a few shoots the travel boom could not reach talent. So I had to use my old pole. I recently bought this and it has been amazing. The new 1/4 turn locks have made it the fastest locking pole I have used. The internal cable so far hasn’t given me any noise issues. And the new easy to take apart system gives me confidence that I won’t have to struggle with any potential “coil-jamming”. I really love the slick look of the carbon fiber design. I always get asked about my boom by other audio people on set who haven’t seen an ambient boom. I will probably be ordering another soon for dual boom op situations. 5
