Shooting WRC Rally Cars in the forest
Hey guys,
This is my first post here so bare with me! I need some tips on how to prevent my camera (550D 18-135mm kit) from getting slaughtered by dust and sand shot from the drifting of WRC cars. I will be filming the 1000 Lakes Rally here in Finland. I am very close (5m) to the roads, so I should probably have some kind of protection from sand and/or water. Please note, I need something cheap, fast ( As I will start filming in 12 hours ) to cover my camera while still being able to focus etc. Thanks! -J |

UV filter in front of the lens and perhaps a big Minigrip bag over the camera with your hands inside and a hole cut for the lens. (Transparent zip-lock bag for freezing food. Other countries may have other brands.)

Kiitos neuvoista Antti!:)
Everything went well, had my UV filter and a couple of plastic bags over my "rig". I was pleased that it did not rain when I filmed! -Joel PS. Heres some material I gathered from the Neste Oil Rally Finland the other weekend. YouTube - 2010 WRC RALLY FINLAND TEASER |
