Jim is an avid photographer and runs a website called Natural Health & Healing at http://www.learntolive.info/ I love getting tips like this and Jim's was very helpful. I asked if I could post it so here it is. --- Hey Mr Video, I live in Canada and we enjoy extra special conditions relative to
condensation. I have exposed countless rolls of film while exploring snow-filled forests
and byways on snowshoes, skiis, and the magic of the snowmobile. Here is a little never-fail trick I have used used for years. Temperature change is the problem when working with condensation, so,
protect your camera by being ready in advance. Going out from hot to cold - place the camera in a plastic bag and seal it
up. Wait a few minutes and the condensation will form - but on the outside
of the bag and not inside the camera. Going from cold to hot, same thing. Bag the camera. A nice clean, clear plastic bag is always resident in my camera bag - one
for each camera I intend to use. When I am exploring and traveling light, I often just place the whole
outfit including the camera bag into the plastic bag. That way you protect
extra lenses, filters, lens cleaners, etc, whatever you are carrying. Enjoy Jim Parsons
--- Thanks for that Jim! Well, that's about it for this week. I hope you all are having a fantastic summer. Stay Tuned
