My husband took pictures from the sidelines with our other newer camera that we didn't want in the mess. You can do a couple things: <br />1) Cover it in saran wrap, leaving just a big enough hole for the lens. This keeps your screen and buttons protected, but you'll still have to be careful not to get it down in the lens, which honestly it's too hard as long as you're paying attention. <br />2) Put it in a ziploc bag. When you run through the color zones, just zip it up and when you're between the zones, you can pull it out and snap some pics. But I will say that your hands will be covered in colorful dust so this can be tricky. <br />For the most part you can just carefully blow the color off of it at the end of the race, which is what I did. I got a little down in my buttons, but it didn't seem to harm it. To me, it's worth having the pictures. I just put it up under my shirt when we ran through the color zones which prevented it from taking any direct hits of color dust.<br />As for tips for the run, I would actually say walk it! lol The point is to get as colorful as possible, so take your time :) Here in Columbus, the color zones got so backed up that you had to walk through them anyway because of so many people. <br />Hope all this helps! You'll have a great time!Nikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05179353433933121653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8823032918394351634.post-41739142018757226172012-07-28T12:37:00.925-04:002012-07-28T12:37:00.925-04:00I am doing a color run in October and I'm real...I am doing a color run in October and I'm really excited about it. This looks so fun! Did you have someone there taking photos for you? I would imagine you don't want to run with your camera, but just wondering how the cameras survive all of the paint? I definitely would like to document my experience. Any tips for the run would be appreciated. It's my first 5k.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07037821915770816003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8823032918394351634.post-80488246122083677772012-07-27T15:29:58.432-04:002012-07-27T15:29:58.432-04:00i wanna sign up now!! looks so fun
