I have looked and seen that Rycote don't make one for it. However, a company called <a href="http://www.redheadwindscreens.com/blog/zoom-h1-windscreen/" rel="nofollow">Redhead</a> do. Has anyone used Redhead products?</p> <p>Ian</p> http://socialsounddesign.com/questions/3530/wind-shield-which-makes/3540#3540 Answer by Jay Jennings for Wind Shield - which makes?

Bill Mellow 2010-09-14T02:35:07Z 2010-09-14T02:35:07Z <p>I have a Redhead and I can't say enough good things about it. I've had my Zoom H4 since they were first released and I hardly used it because of how sensitive to wind the on-board microphones are. When I bought the Redhead it turned my H4 from a useless recorder to something I never leave the house with. Just yesterday I was recording on coming car-bys with the window open as I was driving down the road!</p> <p>And naturally being the Star Wars geek that I am, I bought the Lil'Chewy :) </p> http://socialsounddesign.com/questions/3530/wind-shield-which-makes/3545#3545 Answer by Dom Lawrence for Wind Shield - which makes? Dom Lawrence 2010-09-14T11:20:57Z 2010-09-14T11:20:57Z <p>Redhead are great - have one for my Sony PCM-M10 as I couldn't track down the rycote version. Works as well as any mini-windshield can I think. And slightly off topic but the Joby gorillapod is a great addition too... </p> http://socialsounddesign.com/questions/3530/wind-shield-which-makes/6606#6606 Answer by Dave Matney for Wind Shield - which makes? Dave Matney 2011-03-18T02:49:27Z 2011-03-18T02:49:27Z <p>I've got a pair of Redheads (gunmetal and black), and I love them -- after awhile, a naked h4n just looks wrong.</p> <p>I just ordered the Portable Recorder Suspension Kit from Rycote, which comes with a WindJammer, so I plan on doing a head-to-head comparison with fans.</p> http://socialsounddesign.com/questions/3530/wind-shield-which-makes/6735#6735 Answer by studio13 for Wind Shield - which makes? studio13 2011-03-22T05:29:16Z 2011-03-22T05:29:16Z <p>sorry for jumping on your thread but its related .. I was on location in Cuba this past week and found the stock Sony windscreen for my D-50 wouldn't cut out enough wind. I feel like I needed a giant fuzzy hat for my D-50 the wind was quite strong .. any suggestions for a larger windscreen or a better solution for strong wind ??</p> http://socialsounddesign.com/questions/3530/wind-shield-which-makes/7834#7834 Answer by ZakB for Wind Shield - which makes?
