I notice that on my camera as well as it gets cold the focus gets slow. I guess I am not brave enough to go out when it is -35 W/ wind chill.
I think someone else mentioned this too but I hold my breath when looking through the viewfinder. Otherwise it is impossible to see. Lots of people look at me funny b/c I will breath some breaths away from my camera or when I can't hold it any longer there is vocal exhale
I will have to remember the bag idea when it is raining.
