Comments about Rode WS7 Deluxe Windshield for the NTG3 Microphone:
I saw the Rode dealer video, showing this WS-7 on an NTG-3 about 2 feet directly in front of a 12" table fan running at fast speed. The op was speaking into the mic and you couldn't hear any wind. Good enough for me, I bought one and am very happy with it.
If it has been packed away flat, you should always brush the hairs out as straight as possible to let them do their job.
For very high outdoor wind, a Blimp is better but it needs another operator.

Comments about Rode WS7 Deluxe Windshield for the NTG3 Microphone:
It works very well. Perfect for the NTG-3 and I am also using one on my Rode VideoMic. I shoot documentaries in developing countries, and the kids are always trying to pet it.

Comments about Rode WS7 Deluxe Windshield for the NTG3 Microphone:
I use this windshield for professional film, tv, and documentary shoots. Great for anything outdoors that doesn't require a blimp and run & gun outdoor to indoor shots.
Very effective in mild to medium winds, fits perfect on the NTG3, rubber part feels rugged and seem like it will last a long time. $50-60 cheaper than Rycote softie.
My boom op said it feels slightly heavier than the Rycote softie. The extra weight tends to make the Rycote INV-7 mount flex a bit. Would like to use the Rode SM4 shock mount but since the neck tension isn't adjustable I have to look elsewhere.

Comments about Rode WS7 Deluxe Windshield for the NTG3 Microphone:
I use this windshield with a Sennheiser ME-80 and it's fits perfectly. I have used this on two jobs and had no problems shielding the microphone which was on the end of a boom pole from both movement wind, and environment wind of at times as high as 5-10 mph. I have noticed very little high frequency loss when using this product.
The one drawback is this item has significant weight and hanging on the end of a shotgun microphone being suspended in a band type shock mount, it does weigh the end of the mic a bit.
