Works Great for Moderate to Light winds

This is a great quick slide on solution when you're in a hurry. It's not a blimp so don;t expect it to stop strong winds but works great for moderate to light winds.

Which Rycote solution would work with the ...
Which Rycote solution would work with the Sennheiser MKH 8050, both with and without the MZF 8000 II filter module?
The Rycote 5cm Super-Softie Windshield with 3D-Tex (19/22) will work with the Sennheiser MKH 8050 and the Sennheiser MZF 8000 II filter module. You will have quite a bit of space inside, if you use the MKH 8050 without the filter module, because the full length of the microphone without the filter module is only 2.9".

Which version of the Super Softie works well with the Sanken CS- M1? The Rycote website doesn't include this mic.

Does it fits sennheiser mke600?
Does it fits sennheiser mke600?
Yes, the Rycote 033203 18cm Super Softie Wind Shield for Shotgun Mics will fit on the Sennheiser MKE 600 Shotgun Microphone, but it is 7" deep and the mic is 10" long, so it may cover too much of the microphone. A better match is the Rycote 033202 Super Softie Windshield for Shotgun Mics (B&H # RYSS15M). which is 5" deep and also lists compatibility with the MKE 600 in the product description.

Will this work on the sanken cs-1?
Will this work on the sanken cs-1?
Because of the length of the Sanken CS-1e, it is recommended to use the Rycote Super Softie Windshield for Shotgun Mic (5.9" Depth, 0.7 to 0.9" Diameter) instead of the Rycote Super Softie Windshield for Shotgun Mic (4.7" Depth, 0.7 to 0.9" Diameter).

It's compatible whit Deity S mic 2s?
It's compatible whit Deity S mic 2s?
No. The Rycote 033202 Super Softie Windshield for Shotgun Mic (5.9" Long, 0.7 to 0.9" Diameter) is too long for use with the Deity S-Mic 2S Short Shotgun Microphone. The S-Mic 2S is 5.83" (148mm) long and the inside depth of the windshield is 5.9" (150mm) long, so which is longer than the length of the microphone. The Rycote 033201 Super Softie Windshield for Shotgun Mic (4.7" Long, 0.7 to 0.9" Diameter) [B&H # RYSS12M] would be a better option. The inside depth of this windshield is 4.7" (120mm).
