Product as advertised

Fits the Audio Technica at8035 perfectly.

Fits perfect

Bought it for the rode videomic ntg. Fits great and works a treat in windy conditions. Recommend it!

For rode videomic ntg

The build quality is great!  Been using these for a few years now and love having them in my kit.

Great tool for the kit

If you want the best this is it. Only drawback is its size overall, which in my line of work mostly shooting automotive genre can create shadows from the sun when it's at your back. Quality is top notch and hey how many windscreens come with their own comb!

Perfect Fit for Deity V-Mic D3 Pro

I purchased this windscreen for a Sennheiser MKH-416. The first time I tried it was an outdoor shoot which required me to pick up gentle footsteps. This screen eliminated pretty much all wind noise, and made what I did possible.

Impressive Performance

Great for those windy days when a fuzzy is a must. Clean without muffling what you are trying to pick up what someone is putting down. Love it so much, we named her "Bunny".

Good Bunny

This softie is true to measurement and is a great replacement for a foam windscreen for an older camera mic.

Softie for an on-board camera mic

While it "should" take care of wind issues, I still get wind noise if there is a little wind, I have to sometimes throw a towel over it.  Also it packs into a diced Styrofoam shipping case and contact with the Styrofoam caused the fuzz to singe out. Bought another one from another company, just NOT impressed with this at all. A towel seems to do a better job.

Get something better

Tested this out in some heavy wind  while we were trying to shoot a commercial, works very well!
