Not sure if you saw this article, I put it at the end of my "snow in houston" post

hey dude...thanx for that.

yeah I caught that article as well, and it's an excellent read since it answered alot of my other questions. I guess I should have been more clear with my question.

I'm worried about condensation 1st and formost and how to properly deal with it. Going from the comfort of my home out into -25+ weather for a couple of hours and back again kinda scares the crap out of me. lol
Is it as simple as disassembling the camera and lens and putting them in plastic bags so the bags take the condensation?

I think as long as you have a decent camera bag, just put the bag with all your gear in the environment you want to shoot in and let it come down or up to temp inside the bag before pulling the camera out

Thanx for the heads up on that Rakesh.
