question
Would this be the correct model for the Sennheiser MKH 50?
The Super-Shield Kit for Shotgun Mics (Small) from Rycote will accommodate several mics including the MKH-50. Rycote also recommends the Modular Windshield WS 2 Kit for a more robust solution.

Thanks!!!

No, The Rycote 010320 Super-Shield Kit for Shotgun Mics (Small) is for shotgun microphones up to 200mm long and it will not be able to accommodate the Sennheiser MKH 8060 when combined with the Sennheiser MZF 8000. The MKH 8060 is 178mm long and the MZF 8000 is 29mm long, which is 207mm when used together. Instead of the small Rycote Super-Shield, you can use the Rycote 010321 Super-Shield Kit for Shotgun Mics - Medium (B&H # RYSSKM) which accommodates mics that are 200 to 250mm long.

Is there any way to switch out the cable to use with a mid-side mic like the Sanken CMS-50? Do you sell such a cable?
Yes, you can replace the cable that is included with the Rycote 010320 Super-Shield Kit for Shotgun Mics (Small). The Sanken CMS-50 Short M-S Stereo Shotgun Microphone has a 5-pin XLR output connector which requires a Y-cable that splits to two 3-pin XLR male connectors like the Sanken SC-532 5-Pin XLR Female to Dual 3-Pin XLR Male Adapter Y-Cable - 1' (B&H # SASC532), the Remote Audio 5-Pin Stereo XLR Female to Dual XLR Male Y-Cable - 18" (B&H # RECAXSTE), or the Sennheiser ACS5 5-pin XLR Female to Dual XLR Male Y Cable for MKH418S and MKE44P Microphones -6" (B&H # SEACS5). You can also make a custom cable yourself or have one made for you with the appropriate connector to fit the windshield and pistol grip.

I would like to remove the handle from this and mount it to a camera cage with a 3/8-16 or 1/4-20 screw. Would that be feasible by threading it through the hole the handle clamp screws through?
I purchased a used Rycote S-series blimp which is the predecessor to this model and uses the same handle mounting method. The thin metal plate the handle mounts to has 7 holes in it. The middle hole which the handle bolt go through is too small for a 1/4-20 thread, but the outer 6 holes are loose on a 1/4-20 thread and can be used to bolt this onto a cage or any other 1/4-20 accessory mount with a 1/4-20 nut. This allows for low profile mounting to a camera cage exactly as I had hoped.
