Using a carbon fiber boom pole has become a popular choice among audio professionals. Carbon fiber is incredibly lightweight, making it easy to handle and maneuver, particularly during prolonged recording sessions. Additionally, carbon fiber has excellent vibration-dampening properties, which help reduce unwanted noise and improve the overall sound quality of the recording. It’s also highly durable and resistant to wear and tear, ensuring that the boom pole withstands frequent usage without breaking down.

The BP500 collapses to a 4.2 feet (1.3 meters) for transport, tight sets, and quick resets—then slides out to a full 16.4 feet (5 meters) when the shot widens or the action. That range gives you clean, confident mic placement across rooms, over vehicles, and above busy sets without stepping into frame.
Its five-section telescoping design is the secret sauce: compact when nested, reassuringly solid when extended. Each section engages smoothly and locks down.
Built for all-day location work, the Deity BP500 boom pole pairs rugged aluminum collars with a truly lightweight design. The result? A professional boom pole that resists wear, locks tight, and keeps operator fatigue low—weighing just 2.1 lb (980 g). Get the durability you need without the bulk you don’t.
Arriving ready for the road, the BP500 includes a semi-rigid carrying case that protects your boom pole from bumps and scuffs between takes. An adjustable shoulder strap and grab handle make it easy to carry on set or through airports, while a zippered top cap opens fast for quick load-in and secure closure when you’re on the move.
