Ted Grant chided:
Now David mon ami, a small thought for a moment. If you were left un-attended for 48 hours at 32 below don't you think you might be a little slow at responding? ;-) And I'd bet my sweet bippy you may well be solid also! :-)
This, I grant. I wasn't working too well in those temperatures, either!
yer lucky you could get it off your "frozen to your hands!"
I mean a guy has to have some senior gear priorities! Gear first. "wimmin and whatever second!" ;-) Don't tell Rose I said that. ;-)
Nikons, Hassleblad, Rollieflex and Leicas of many models get "slow" if left in this type of weather. And "dead stopped some times!"
When I need to shoot, camera is out and I shoot as quickly as I can and pop the camera back inside. I definately do not wander around with everything hanging out in the breeze while looking for pictures, you only need your eyes for that.. find something, gear out, shoot, back under cover.
If there's anything worth while, I'll post them.
Cheers!
