Managed to fix the bad wind noise interference on my camera with the application of a foam sponge pan scourer over the microphones held in place with a rubber band. Here is an example of the wind noise before the fix. http://youtu.be/kC-qrWJeBg8?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB24U4fM_y0-a_Yobe4ctVxK I have modified my idea now. I just have two small discs of double sided tape with holes in the middle. One over each microphone and a small cube of foam on each one. Looks a little like a pair of ears or bug eyes and still seems to work. It also reminds me not to put my fingers over the microphones on hand-held video shots which is another problem I had. Very frustrating to get a good video but muffled sound, as bad as finding a stray finger over the lens. I still like the first version for it's simplicity but the new version has advantages too. Filmed using FujiFiln FinePix S4800 edited using Serif MoviePlus Starter Edition I will add this video to my Hope Cove playlist http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB24U4fM_y0-a_Yobe4ctVxK Dead Cats https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB20SJdLzj3R7g3hjK0VyAWl I cannot answer comments from people who have blocked replies, so if you don't get a reply to your question that may be the reason. It is probably worth reading my video description first because the answer may already be there.

OK, I enjoy them too. If anybody else likes them, that is a bonus. I like to keep my work as simple and basic as possible so that it can be copied easily and improved by anybody who wants to try themselves. I recycle or repurpose items rather than buy new and when I do buy I like to keep it cheap. https://www.youtube.com/user/GrandadIsAnOldMan
