Deity BP380 Carbon Fiber Boom Pole - 12.5ft

While the product description does not specify a maximum weight capacity, the robust CNC-machined aluminum collars are designed to securely hold typical professional shotgun microphones and shock mounts. It's recommended to use microphones that are proportionate to the boom pole's size and weight for optimal balance and performance.

You can clean the carbon fiber sections with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher grime, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a thorough wipe-down with a clean, damp cloth. Ensure the pole is completely dry before storing.

The Deity BP380 is not designed for underwater use. It is intended for standard field recording and should be kept away from prolonged submersion in water.

The threaded tip is typically integrated into the final section of the boom pole. If it becomes damaged, please contact Deity support for potential repair or replacement options.

Product information regarding warranty period is not provided in the product description. Please refer to the official Deity documentation or retailer for specific warranty details.

Carbon fiber is significantly lighter than aluminum and offers superior vibration dampening properties, leading to cleaner audio. However, it can be more susceptible to cracking or chipping from sharp impacts compared to aluminum's tendency to bend.

Ensure the collars for the relevant sections are fully unlocked (turned counter-clockwise). If resistance persists, check for dirt or debris within the sections and clean gently. Avoid forcing the sections.

Verify the collar is turned fully clockwise. If it still feels loose, inspect the collar and the section it grips for any damage or debris. Contact support if the locking mechanism appears faulty.

Ensure all sections are securely locked. Check that the microphone shock mount is properly isolating the microphone. Consider using a windscreen if working in windy conditions, as the boom pole itself cannot eliminate external wind noise.

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth if necessary.
