With winter around the corner I plan to be out taking photos even on cold snowy days (which I’ve done before) but I’ve always been ill-prepared not taking the cold weather seriously enough. My camera is more than capable of handling the weather but I’d love for some advice on accessories either clothing or camera related that can help extend outdoor sessions and make for a more comfortable experience.
I love the gloves for cooler/milder weather. They’re light and pack down nice when not in use. I like the hybrid design of them being mittens while still allowing your fingers full access to touch screens when not in “mitten mode”. I never had an issue with the magnets, personally.
However, I wouldn’t recommend these gloves for anything below the 40’s F (4-5 C). I have a much more expensive/rugged pair for colder temps, but they’re 4X the price, clunkier (harder to work with in the field) and take up twice the room in my bag when not in use.
