Rode DeadCat

After finding out just how sensitive a rode ntg2 microphone is i thought theres no way this can stop wind noise from getting through but it really does a good job. At first i thougtht i'd just make my own for far less out of some material i had, Or I'd probably recommend people try 3rd party alternatives first, as the price is high for what it is so for me it loses a star for being overly expensive.

I have two of these and would use them outdoors in low-wind conditions.

They provide good basic protection to a microphone, from a splittly interviewee, from basic weather issues and of course from wind.

In high wind you'll want to supplement it with a Zeppelin.

I own a higher-priced item from a competitor brand and wonder why I spent the extra as I don't notice any difference in wind protection

C'est pas du poil Rycott mais ça fait l'affaire dans certaines situations pas trop venteuse. Par contre la protection n'est pas de 360° évité les vent dos micros, n?oubliez pas la mousse du micro pour la placé.

A perfect fit for my NTG2 mic and fits snugly over the foam pop-guard. Not really suitable for high winds, only for a light breeze at best but provides a good transparency overall.

Bought deadcat for videomics, works as promised; reduces wind noise and fits rodes foam windshields perfectly.Only a very little difference while on/off, could be said that its almost transparent. Only minus is that fits only with rode foams.
