nice little photo essay
I learned long ago that it's a good idea, after being out in the cold
with your camera, to bag it up in a ziploc then let it come to room
Thanks, Bruce.
I hadn't even thought about flash...probably because I've really never
taken it out in the cold, but I will keep that in mind...

Great gallery, Christine.
Yes, I do the camera warmup thing, mainly by
snowfall.
What's with the jogger? Not good for the knees to be uncovered like that. ;-)
Cheers,

Hi all,
The past few days
Thanks for looking, Steve thanks for your thoughts.
Thanks, too, for the heads up on the Timbuk2 bag... we have several of
their messengers now I see they have the camera insert available to
purchase separately... Hmmm...

HI Christine -
Nice gallery of shots!
WRT winter usage of cameras - I always do the zip lock thing when I
bring my camera in from a day of snow crystal shooting. In that case the
camera has usually been out in the cold for several hours. I do take the
card out before I come in, though. I

Hi all,

I've never done that, and haven't had a problem with corrosion. I find the
worst case for condensation is going from an air conditioned house to outdoors
on a hot humid summer day. Coming indoors in the winter results in only mild
condensation, if any, since indoor air is dry. I'm sure having a
Like Paul, I've only had a problem going from a heavily AC'd hotel
room to very hot and humid outside (Aruba, any time of the year). It
doesn't really matter if the camera is sealed or not, because the
internals aren't filled with inert, dry gasses, they are filled with
ambient air that is locked
If its really cold, i will wrap the unit in a towel and bring it
inside, slowly opening the towel over several hours. If it like this
past weekend, -10C or so, i just bring it in and keep it by one of my
drafty windows

Christine,
I used to see the condensation problem with the PZ-1 and mechanical cameras.
After getting the mirror, back of the lens, and prism wet, I was more
careful. (bag it)
The only real problem I had was with a new PZ-1 at a pig roast.
The electronics died after shooting 30 minutes in the hot
Thanks Paul, David David...
I am comforted to know that you haven't had any issues, especially
since I only sporadically follow that recommendation. I usually do
something like Davids described, leaving it in the camera bag for a
while to acclimate... conditions inside my house are usually
Thanks, Bob. I'll take extra care at pig roasts!
Yes, that's Nick. He had been running on the treadmill indoors, and
had just quit was strutting around the kitchen shirtless, foraging
for food, as is his usual m.o. I dared him to run outside like that,
and he took off... He ran up down the

at least I always bring a baggie, ziplock or other wise and rubberbands
to immediately enclose the camera before going inside - anywhere.

Thanks, Ann!
Glad to hear you made it through the storm ok, and that you've been
pleasantly occupied with your friend. He picked the right weekend to
get out of town!

Great gallery, Christine.
Yes, I do the camera warmup thing, mainly by leaving it in the closed
kit bag for an hour or so. Other non-sealed stuff I put in baggies
while they warm up; flashes, etc. Been okay so far.

Hi all,
The past few days have provided a nice break in the usual action
around here. I took the camera out yesterday, along with my shovel,
thinking I'd get a few neighborhood scenes... Well, it was harder
