I often use a piece of stiff cardboard for local water protection, otherwise its an umbrella for real down pours, I like those large umbrellas in those situation. as far as cold, these cameras are tough, I have been out in -15 F weather, and extended shots. The one effect is a severe reduction in battery life. Sometimes in windy cold conditions, the D700 would hang and you would see all the focus poiints suddenly get stuck on, but if I turned off the power, and back on,, the condition clears.so,, common sense, and the cameras will hold up in increment weather.</blockquote>
