What will happen to SLR cameras at low temperatures? How to shoot at low temperature? What should I pay attention to? ...

Many low-end SLR cameras require shooting temperature of 0℃ to 40℃. Low temperature has three common effects on SLR cameras: first, it directly affects the life of the battery, and the number of pictures that can be taken by a fully charged battery is greatly reduced. The second is condensation. When the camera is brought back from the cold outdoor to the warm indoor or car, condensation will occur in the camera due to the sudden change of temperature, which will seriously damage the camera circuit. High-end cameras have strong sealing performance and are less affected. Third, some parts are deformed and failed due to extreme cold. I saw that the biggest problem in foreign reports was Canon's midrange 60d.

Countermeasures: First, keeping the camera close to the body to keep warm can prolong the battery life. Second, put the camera into the moistureproof box in time. The third problem is unavoidable.
