A SLR digital camera requires some special consideration in the cold weather. One needs to ensure that the camera does not become damaged. The following camera care tips should help:
Reconditioned digital cameras to view:
1. Make sure you have spare batteries - batteries tend to wear out faster in cold conditions. Try to keep the spares warm by putting them in a pocket close to your body.
2. Bring along your camera bag and some plastic bags big enough for your camera. By placing your camera inside the plastic bag and then inside your camera bag, you will help limit condensation forming on your camera when you go back inside.
3. Try to keep your camera inside your jacket - close to your body - when you aren’t using it.
4. Before you go back inside, wrap your camera in a thick plastic bag and put it back in your camera bag. Try to keep the bag air-tight. This will cut down on any condensation that can form both outside and inside your camera, causing damage.
5. If possible, warm your camera up slowly by placing it in an unheated room for a while before moving it to a warmer location in the house. Remember to keep it sealed in the plastic bag until it has reached room temperature.
