[QUOTE="aroy, post: 328538, member: 16090"] Lense cap stays in my shirt pocket I normally carry the DSLR with me, as in India it can get really hot in the car (ambient is 45 degree so the inside can hit 60 degrees centigrade). I like the idea of ice box. Another long term solution is to have a small refrigerator in the vehicle. Here most of the high end cars have one that is run off the air conditioning circuit. That would keep your camera (and beer) cold for quite some time. One thing that we have noticed is that the electronics does not give up ghost if stored at 60 degrees. It is the plastic parts that do. Most electronics will run as long as the internal temperature on the chips is below 80 degrees, but the packaging (and cooling) of consumer electronics is such that the interior reach that temperature after 30 degrees ambient.
