Wow--the smartLav+ is better than I expected when placed on the outside of your jacket. Perhaps the best compromise in near-gale-force winds like that would be under the just the top layer.
Curtis Judd Totally agree with your comment about best compromise of just under one layer, and I wish I'd tried that on this video. However these videos are generally done very soon after getting a new product, reflecting how someone who has just got the product may find it. So it's very much a 'let's see what happens' type situation.I have a Giant Squid on order, so when that arrives I'll include an 'under 1 layer' comparison then.
Really useful test - clearly the lavalier mic does a hell of a lot better than shotgun mics in windy situations, which is incredibly useful for any filmmaker or videomaker to hear for themselves! :D
Good Video Mate.. Love the comparison. Reason why i pulled up your video looking into the same setup for my Strip Walks in Las Vegas. I too have Rode VideoMic Pro and was considering the SmartLav+....Well you sold me on it haha. Ordering now!
Great video. Surprising really that the dead cat wasn't as good as your coat and jumper. Impressive you didn't get clothing noise also. The lav did sound a little muffled but it was way better than the wind noise from the camera mounted one.
+John StressedTechy great video thought of buying sennheiser ew 112 g3 lol but now thinking of smartlav+ for my prank videos, whats you suggest, can it take the voice of the stranger whom i prank as mike will be on me , my concern is can it take proper sound from the stranger whom i prank ?please reply

Well done! After struggling for a very long time with my Sennheiser Lav, you video was a real eye opener. I've ordered mine. Thanks mate.
Thanks for this test ! 👍👍👍
man it works good!
This is the best ever comparison video. I like the smartlav+ the best. Thank you.
The sound when it's attached outside your clothing is as good as a BBC news report.
BBC always go lives, this guys might do some edit of his audio tho

Almost anything is better than relying on the camera's internal microphones as you heard (or couldn't hear!) right at the end.
Very helpful comparisons. Thanks for taking the time to do them.
great comparison video! after watching your smartlav/smartlav+ review, then this, i think you just sold me on the SL+! thank you! :D
