 Hey guys, welcome back to my YouTube channel. This is Daniel Rosell. I'm here today at Cahoon Hollow, which is one of the beaches around Wildfleet. I thought this would be a great opportunity to test out my, I picked up this dead cat for the Audio Technica 8875R short shotgun XLR microphone. So you're currently listening to the Audio Technica with just the FOMI that it came with. So the wind protection, it's pretty gusty here on the beach right now. So it shouldn't be that great. I'm expecting a little bit of bluster catching into the microphone. And I'm going to go ahead now and swap in for the dead cat. So this was about $25 on Amazon. It was one of three different dead cats I could find specifically for this microphone. And I've talked before about this Audio Technica microphone. It's a very, very popular ENG microphone and it fits really well on my Canon X840, which is one of the shorter pro camcorders on the market. Okay, I've gone ahead now and swapped over to the dead cat microphone. The shots the same height on the tripod. And I'm the same difference from the microphone. It's a really, really big dead cat, but it doesn't actually get in frame, which is really, really great. It's engineered specifically for this short shotgun microphone. And hopefully you can hear a difference. Let me know in the comments if you think it really makes a big difference in terms of wind protection. The conditions are about the same. I did a couple of shots yesterday with it and I thought it was much better in terms of the wind performance.
