Using the Camera in Extremely Cold Conditions In extremely cold conditions, always protect the camera from outside air and try to finish shooting as quickly (320 as possible. In temperatures below 0°C F), the batten- may be affected, so you may want to carry a spare. Keep the camera and spare battery close to your body or in a pocket to keep them warns until you are ready to take a picture. Although the battery may not function well in cold conditions, don't throw it away. It may work perfectly again when you use the camera in warmer temperatures. Avoid extreme temperature changes. Condensation forming on a camera and lens taken from subzero outside temperatures into a warm room may cause corrosion. Let the camera grad- ually adjust to the temperature change by placing it in a completely sealed plastic bag for a while. 96_
