Here's a question to all of you that live in climates that can get freezing.
How do you keep you rhands warm when your photographing outside in the Winter? Last spring my hands were in alot of pain after being exposed to the winter wind in a matter of minutes *and here you can get frostbite in less than a minute sometimes*.
I was thinking about taking a right hand skidoo mitten *long on the arm*, and cutting holes into it so I can put the camera in there so the only thing exposed on teh outside is the lense *not sure what I woudl do for flash*, so my hand is inside the mitten and able to push teh button no problem. But another problem would be the lcd screen or viewfinder.
Another concern that I have about the winter is will/can it do damage to my digital camera? :0) The mitten idea would protect it a bit. What are some photographer tricks for gear in the winter?
Thanks in advance.
