Yep, and in a parabol you usually have an omni, which is less
susceptible to wind than directional's, and when the wind is coming
from the front or the back, the parabola itself shields off wind very
effectively.
Most people claim that a "real" microphone is better at a near
distance, than a parabol at a longer distance.
Here, at the top of http://klas.telinga.com/demo/ is a typical file
that questions such a statement. I find it hard to judge "better" or
"more beautiful" between the two.
