I feel that the price is a bit high but it does keep the wind at bay when use on the Rode Video mic. Note that In real high winds I also have to set the lowpass filter on the Video mic to on.

Great wind shield to use on your mic while recording outside.
It cuts the strong wind, while getting good quality sound.
