Need help choosing?
Choose the Blimp when you need full basket protection for demanding outdoor work. For lighter wind and a smaller rig, a push-on WS6 or WS7 may be enough.
The RØDE Blimp is a complete basket windshield and Rycote Lyre suspension system for shotgun microphones up to 325mm long. It isolates the microphone from handling noise and protects it from wind during location recording.
A lightweight pistol grip, internal Mogami cable and included Dead Wombat furry cover make it a practical all-weather solution for boom or handheld use.
