I've used an older version of these First Lite mittens 
<https://www.firstlite.com/products/grizzly-2-mitt.html?dwvar_grizzly-2-mitt_color=dry-earth&lang=en_US&quantity=1>
 
for hunting, and they also had enough feel to operate my cameras. 
Obviously, they are expensive. My version was much cheaper! But when 
working for hours in the Dakotas and Minnesota, they were perfect and well 
worth it. Wool still works when damp, and I sometimes used just the outside 
with different liners.
