Hi everyone, I got some concerns on D90 performance in snow condition. I've asked Nikon support about it but they can't help as they don't have any experience with these. So I need so advice, tips and trick from whoever got experience on these situations. Thanks in advance! <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
I just recently acquired a Nikon D90, and planning to go to snow mountain for photo shoot. The estimated
temperature would be -5 to -15 degrees. I have never brought DSLR to snow mountain so I got some questions :
1. People says condensation will occur once I change environment from cold (outdoor) to warm (indoor), which
makes the glass in the lens goes foggy. So, to resume shooting I need to wait until the condensation (no fog
or fuzzy lens any more)is over and then I can use it again.
>Will these over and over condensation damage my camera?
>Any ways to prevent this from happening?
>Or this occurences is just normal and once its gone I can resume shooting ?
2. People says Zipped bag will help, is that true ?
Notes: I won't be shooting in harsh condition, I will go out in nice and sunny weather, clear skies <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
Thank you so much in advance!
Kind regards,
Hans
