Nice Review ut in the whole Video the sound sounds like crap…… Basicly like very low bitrate…. Why?
You guys do the most comprehensive video production reviews online. Great job! Cheers!
The Amazon page uses 2 stills of you Tom.
Even cheaper is the PROAIM blimp, shock mount & wombat wind screen for 115.00 at Amazon.
Hey Tom what case do you use to hold the Zoom H5 recorder? I have the same recorder myself.
For all of my fellow indie/non union ballers on a budget, sound gear is a great deal if you buy used!
Sounds like it blocks more frequencies than the rode.
good sir thank u so much
When considering the "genuine" RODE, take also a look at the "Rycote Super Blimp NTG Kit". It's a lot more compact and stylish, has a more efficient construction for easy mounting a mic and the overall performance beats the RODE one.
At this size of furry wind protection, the thing is called a "dead wombat". Decreasing in size there are also dead "cats" and "kittens".
"cheap" is not same "bad"! 😉
Why not just use an electric fan or something to test it? Just my thought
Awesome video, keep the passion !
good job
Tom Thank you again, I was literally Just about to get the Rode, and watched the video and Ordered this for some upcoming work. Will put it to a Production test. and Got it at the Price you mentioned. don't know why others are finding it Higher.
It’s 180.00 now not 240.00
Sounds to me like they let Røde pay for all the R&D and have just stole the design.
As we were watching the video (kids and me) Andrzej shouted "phoebe mama" when he saw the dead cat cover. haha!
I came for the good looking dude and the review.
love from Kenya
Crazy I got my Rode Blimp MKII for 185€ in Germany new! (210 USD)
Video has only been up 1 hour and the product costs $70 more than you claim in the video.
Every site is $240 bucks bruh. Decreases the value of this video drastically. Odd because they have ALWAYS been $240. Might as well drop the extra $60 and get a RØDE for the warranty alone. OR do what I did and buy two (slightly) used RODE blimps for $300 (both). At $150 it's a bargain. At $240 I'd pay the extra $60.
Would have rather seen a review of the AURAY boom pole. It's the best bang for buck on the market these days truth be told.
I use the proaim blimp, its amazing, and only runs $153 on amazonn.ca! No regrets!!
It is only $50 cheaper than the Rode one, it should be half the price to even think about it.
Come on bro – $240 – I rather pay more and stick to quality but it is a nice copy
It looks very profesional!
