Rode NTG2 wind reduction
 
I used my NTG2 with a Rycote softie with very unsatisfactory results in the wind until I taped over the High Pass Filter switch. Instant huge improvement in wind noise rejection. Not as good as with my full windshield system but much better than with the softie alone. Give it a try, it will cost you about a penny.

Just a quick 'thank you' for that tip. I was having problems with a light breeze yesterday, and a small piece of gaffer tape over that switch fixed the problem.
