Hello Marco,
MK> I also was shooting the eclipse - south of Munich in Germany, we had
MK> a clear sky - and I was standing in the cold for one hour. The
MK> battery of my EOS 5 (which was already used for some rolls of film,
MK> also in cold weather) was dead after the shooting! I shot one film
MK> and some frames on a second one (both fuji sensia II 100)
Is the battery indicator on the 5 better calibrated than the 3's?
MK> P.S.: Dieter, a down jacket works great in such low temperatures. And
MK> always wear a hat or a balaclava, as your body loses almost 1/3 of
MK> his temperature via the head.
I wore my thick winter jacket which I use only when it is really cold,
meaning temperatures from -5C on (that is quite seldom here). I wore a
hat and I know very well that I lose most via the head as there are not
many hairs left... :-) I had no troubles with core temperature only
my fingers got cold.
