FAQs
How much wind noise reduction does the windscreen provide?
The windscreen reduces wind noise by up to 14dB. This makes a noticeable difference when recording in outdoor conditions such as open streets, coastal areas, or elevated locations. It helps keep dialogue and ambient sound clearer by reducing low-frequency wind-induced rumble. The effect is especially useful when relying on the camera’s built-in microphones.
How does the windscreen attach to the camera?
It mounts directly onto the camera using a cold shoe foot. The fit is straightforward and holds securely once in place. A built-in silicone pad sits between the mount and the camera body, helping prevent scratches during attachment and removal. This makes it safe to leave it on the camera during regular use.
Can I still mount accessories while using the windscreen?
Yes. The windscreen includes an additional cold shoe mount on top. This allows you to attach accessories such as a small LED light without removing the windscreen. It keeps your setup compact while still allowing basic rig expansion.
Is it suitable for travel and everyday use?
The windscreen is compact at 64 x 40 x 25mm and weighs only 12g, so it adds very little bulk to the camera. It can stay mounted while moving between locations or be stored easily in a small pocket or pouch. This makes it practical for travel, vlogging, and general handheld shooting.
What materials make up the windscreen?
The outer layer uses artificial wool designed to disrupt airflow before it reaches the microphone. Inside, a structured base keeps the shape consistent while mounted. This combination helps maintain reliable performance without adding significant weight or size to the camera.
