The Schoeps W 5 D is the larger and more effective version of the classic B 5 D windscreen. It will help with the protection against stronger winds. It provides very good effectiveness while minimizing impact on sound color.
It is made of foam, but is hollow inside, and thus encloses an air volume around the microphone capsule like a windscreen basket. The foam of the W 5 D is mounted on a plastic carrier that sits firmly on the microphone. The foam thus does not touch the microphone, which reliably prevents any motion noise. The microphone should pushed as far as possible into the W 5 D. Compatible with all axially addressed microphones from Schoeps.
