C300: C300 MkI cold weather shoot

[New_Zealand]

I will be filming in no man land in August - cold weather with snow (other side of the planet). Just wanted to know if I will run into any issues with the camera on the shoot due to weather in the 20 degree area or colder. Thanks

Just keep your batteries wrapped up else they will get drained out soon.

Observe standard cold weather hygiene for cameras. Keep your batteries warm and be careful with cold to warm transitions to avert fogging of lens external and internal elements. If you must make a quick transition from cold to warm , have a large plastic bag that you can put the camera in under cold conditions & then close up before ebtering warm condition. This keeps cold dry air close to the camera even though the warm situtation has more humidity and would cause condensation on or possibly in the camera. If you are staying in the warm condition let the camera warm up in the bag before opening.
