That's not cold! When it's less than -20 degrees C, then it's beginning to be cold. :-) But get spare battery... I've never had really any problems in temps like -20 with EOS 50e and EOS 3 and Canon lenses (ok, once I remember something funny with one of the first IS lenses...)
Happy shooting and a good trip!
Best regards, Hugo.
Absolutely! Unless you mean degrees Fahrenheit, some -5 degrees Celsius is not a problem. I once carried my old EOS 100 in a hip bag at temperatures well below -20 degrees Celsius for a whole day of skiing. It still worked in the afternoon, although I admit I didn't take as many pictures as I should have. Probably a matter of the photographer having a temperature problem, certainly not the camera ;-)
But, you may call me paranoid, I *always* carry a backup battery, no matter where and what. Just for peace of mind ... Happy shooting, I think Prague has lots of photo opportunities and is well worth a visit. Have a nice trip!
