Very sturdy and reliable for field sound. Just worried a little about the wombat(deadcat) losing a lot of fur.

Excellent device. It is a must-have for any Recordist to work on location. Very good build quality, perfect design.

I got this from an off line store before it was available on Amazon. It is the best investment one could make if eliminating wind noise for on field shooting is a priority. I have used the blimp with the Dead Wombat screen in extreme wind condition and they have come out with flying colours. I do hobby bird call recordings by going to the fields where one has to deal with windy conditions all the time. This is perhaps the best investment one can make in his recording set up. If you don’t do this investment, no matter how expensive your recorder or microphone is, all you will record is wind noise.

a high quality shotgun mic holder or just a better (or the best) way to cut out the wind …
You’re only reading this because you desperately want an honest review to see if this RODE Blimp can handle wind exceptionally well. WELL, let me tell you that it is beyond my expectation.The other day I was shooting a video after a storm had passed and the winds were still hovering around 20mph. Once I put on the ‘Dead Wombat’ the wind noise was literally cut down to nothing. At first I thought it wasn’t working because shotgun mic (NTG2) was picking up the leaves falling and I thought it was wind….it was just that clear!The most important factor of this package is the DEAD WOMBAT (which is included and thank you RODE for doing that). This is and will be the only thing you have to stop the wind and it works flawlessly. You will need this in any high wind situation.All in all, if you’re looking for a wind muff, a high quality shotgun mic holder or just a better (or the best) way to cut out the wind from your production, I cannot emphasize this next statement enough….BUY THIS.

Ottimo prodotto! Consiglio vivamente a tutti i filmmakers!
Prodotto ben costruito e semplice da usare. Molto resistente e fa benissimo il suo lavoro.Lo uso con lo shotgun Rode NTG4+ e insieme al boom della rode da 3,2m. Si adatta benissimo a tutti i tipi di ripresa sia in interno (lo consiglio senza deadcat per migliorare il guadagno audio in presa diretta) ed in esterno (lo consiglio con il deadcat) anche in caso di forte vento o spostamenti bruschi mentre si registra. Il deadcat è incluso e lavora benissimo anche con forte vento. Ho fatto delle riprese in un bosco di sera a fianco ad una cascata e con parecchio vento, e ha svolto il suo lavoro in modo eccellente.Il cavo xlr ed i collegamenti integrati sono di qualità e le sospensioni per il microfono sembrano fragili ma sono di grande qualità . È perfettamente compatibile con le aste boom con attacco 3/8” (quello grande, per intenderci).Lo consiglio vivamente a tutti i videomaker esperti e non, soprattutto se si usano già le attrezzature della Rode.

Decepcionado…
En general el Rode blimp parece bastante sólido; sin embargo, una de las palancas de apriete de la montura de pistola viene rota y no se queda en su lugar. Al parecer es un defecto de fabrica y Amazon no envÃa un reemplazo inmediato. He tenido experiencia comprando productos Rodé por esta plataforma y es la primera vez que el empaque llega enpolvadony golpeado.

If you are serious about doing outdoor video, you need this. While Youtube has videos of DIY versions, nothing can come close because both the mounting system and the exterior, wind-noise damping decrease or eliminate handling and atmospheric noise without decreasing the quality of the audio. Fairly expensive? Yes. Thoroughly worthwhile? YES!

Indispensable – aunque el precio de respeto al ppo
La verdad que pensé incluso en imprimir uno en 3D por ahorrarme los 200 y pico euros… La verdad que vale cada céntimo. Primero la marca, me encanta Rode, 10 años de garantÃa, embalaje genial, viene con instrucciones detalladas, una llave para ajustar distintos microfonos, un mini XLR para sacar el conector fuera, zepelin de excelente calidad, dead cat (anti viento de pelo largo) y hasta un peine plegable para pelar el gato muerto!! ajajajajaja me pareció lo más.Lo compré para un trabajo que nos salió de imprevisto para una campaña electoral, en la que el primer dÃa fui tan solo con una espumita que traÃa mi micrófono, que está bien para un interior pero en exteriores se cuela ruido de viento, me apresuré a comprar el Rode Blimp para el siguiente dÃa de rodaje y menos mal que lo hice, habÃa muchÃsimo viento y me salvó el dÃa de grabación.Comentar que, uno de los dÃas con más viento se me olvidó el anti viento de pelo largo (los de Rode lo llaman Dead Wombat en lugar a dead cat, ya que son australianos 🙂 pensé que habÃa metido la pata ya que oÃa el ruido del viento chocando en mis auriculares y era incapaz de juzgar si el zeppelin estaba o no funcionando lo suficiente sin el DeadCat de pelo largo… estaba ansioso por llegar a casa y probarlo en el estudio, estaba 100% seguro de que habrÃa que repetir la grabación… mi sopresa fué espectacular… nada absolutamente nada de rudio de viento… sinceramente con el antiviento de pelo largo se tiene que poder grabar en medio de un huracán … realmente sorprendente, uno de los mejores 200€ invertidos en mi vida.Recomendable al 1000% y volverÃa a comprar sin duda alguna.
