We come in peace

When you mount the Sony PCM-D50 on a tripod and outfit the microphones with the optional windscreen, it starts looking like a little creature. The windscreen is very effective in reducing distortion caused by wind blowing directly on the sensitive microphones, and the use of a tripod helps minimize any rattling caused by handling the recorder or placing it on busy surface.
