Hey there,
I’ve got the NTG-2. The shockmount for the microphone does attach to a normal shoe. This is a physical connection only, meaning data between the mic and camera is not transfered through the shoe.
One other thing to note: I assume since you mentioned those other two mics that you plan on getting either an XLR “box” like a Beachtek or Juicedlink or an XLR adapter cable to plug into the camera’s mic input? All of the mics mentioned so far are XLR mics, so you’ll need some way to convert this to the 3.5mm mic input on your camera.
Of course, boxes like the Beachtek or Juicedlink generally have at least 2 inputs (left channel and right channel). This might be more than you need if you always plan to be using 1 microphone and have it camera mounted. Another option is you could take a look at the Rode VideoMic. Instead of an XLR output, it has a 3.5mm. Then you could save some money on an adapter box to put toward a decent NLE if you don’t already have one or some lights, camera filters, tripod, or whatever else you might need. I’m just throwing this out as an option because I don’t know what your main use of the mic is.
