[QUOTE="Eyelight, post: 404234, member: 24753"] Wind chill affects people and other living things but has no impact on non-living things. The operating minimum temp of 0°C (32°F) is air temp. So you could have an air temp of 1°C and a 40KMH wind producing a negative wind chill and you would still be operating 1°C above the minimum. What wind can do is cool an object faster and move the object temp below freezing faster if the air temp is below freezing, but wind cannot cool anything below the actual air temperature. I'm guessing the reason the minimum is the freezing point of water is that moisture freezing inside the camera and lens will reduce the performance. Assuming this is why, if you happen to be in drier air, the colder temps will have less impact on performance. [/QUOTE]
