    I shoot video for weddings and action sports and this dead cat has become a necessity in my bag. I rely on it almost always if I am filming and recording onboard audio. Its great in less then perfect conditions and really works out well. Some complain that you have to have the original foam screen that comes with your Rode mic. I like that it slips over the foam because it gives me an added layer of protection against wind. I love this product and highly recommend it to anyone need to record audio in a run and gun type of situation.

    Style: DeadCat WindshieldVerified Purchase
    I've only had this for a few weeks, and used it on decently windy days. I find with this on, the quality is much better with it off, so I just keep it on the whole time. I was shocked at how simple it was, it came in a small bag, really tight knit and velcros over the videomic. Simple yet useful. The hair falls off a lot though, but is fun to annoy people with. Not much to say, but it's a great product for the microphone... but doesn't do the job of "professional" work

    5.0 out of 5 stars I like it ...
    Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2015
    Style: DeadCat WindshieldVerified Purchase
    I put off buying this for about a year because of the price ... $39 seemed expensive for a fuzzy sock. However, I began doing more interviews in the field for short videos related to a non-profit I volunteer for. The wind noise with my Cannon 70D was a real issue ... people thought it was thunder when they heard the audio - and where I live wind is almost always a factor. I needed to do something. Searching through the internet for solutions kept bringing me back to this product.

    So I finally bit the bullet and bought this 'deadcat'. It works. And now I wish I had bought it a while back. Small breezes that used to sound like crackling thunder are no longer even heard. Strong, hat-holding, wind sounds like ... wind, and voices can still be clearly heard above the background wind noise.

    Cons ... I did have to trim back some of the dead cat hair as it would hang down over some of my lenses, especially on a windy day, but, really, that's a non-issue. And the dog thought it was a toy for him when it arrived ... that almost ended badly for the dead cat and the microphone inside it when I left it on my desktop. Lesson learned there.

    Bottom line ... it fits my Rode boom mike with room to spare. It works. It's worth the price. Hope this helps.

    Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2013
    Style: DeadCat WindshieldVerified Purchase
    Despite what the name of the product is, this is not a real dead cat. I was hoping for an actual dead cat when I ordered this, but when I received the Deadcat Wind Muff, I actually realized, "Hey, I have a Rode NTG2 Microphone this would work on." So instead of giving a 1 star because it wasn't the dead cat I was looking for, it gets 5 stars for being a very functional wind muff.

    Only complaint is that some of the "fur" sheds. Keep it in a ziplock if you keep it with your gear or else you could get cat hair everywhere. Just like a real cat.

    I have a Panasonic HPX-170 and an extreme fisheye, so when i chose out a shotgun mic it had to be a certain size so it would not come into view with the lens.

    I chose a phantom powered XLR input Azden mic. (SGM PDII)

    This rode wind muff popped up in related products to i figured it was the same size.

    i found out later it was a little bit too long, it comes into view , so either invest more money into a shockmount that hopefully works or give it a good haircut.

    The product itself does help reduce wind noise pretty well.

    Simply fantastic!

    After a few video projects that were marred by poor audio, I knew I needed a wind muff for my outdoor jobs. Since I had a Rode microphone, this seemed to be the logical answer to my problem. I expected it to work seamlessly and it did. Really, there is not much to say beyond that. The cover cuts down wind noise nearly completely, and left me with fantastic audio at the end of the shoot. I really cannot say enough about how well this cover works!

    風は入りませんし、固定感もいいんですが、毛が長すぎるんですよ。
    そりゃ、長い方が風は抑えれますが、抜けた時に大変なことになります。
    これは経年劣化して、毛が抜け始めたらすぐに捨てた方がいいですね。

    しかし、目的は十分に果たしています。屋外での収録時は風切音を提言してくれますし、ショットガンマイクが少し画角に入ってもデザインがもふもふなのでバレにくくなりました(笑)

    ということもあり、毛が長いのは商品自体の特徴なので、星4です。
