Hi all,
I just got back inside my cozy house after taking a few shots on a clear but frigid winter's day with the sun setting....The wind-chill is -8ºF (actual temp is 11ºF), and after sitting at home for 15 minutes, the metal exterior of my Canon Powershot G9 is still very cold to the touch. On Canon's website, it says that the operating temperature is 32-104°F/0-40°C. I plan using my camera more in the cold, and I'm wondering what effect it might have on it:
Battery damage (it's a Li-ion)?
Sensor damage?
Shorter life in general?
Increased wear on the moving parts?
Some other type of damage?
No damage at all?
I'm curious to see....
Thanks,
JDR
P.S.-- I might put up some of the shots I took in a little bit
