Dead right. You would then certainly get condensation on the inside. I found, using the method outlined, that there was none. Might be different for you..... If you use a bag, it needs to be completely airtight, or there is no point. It would be best if it was as empty of air as possible, too. > In general, I only take the camera out when we are above zero > temperatures.

You are missing (at least, in the UK) half the fun.... mike ======================================================== Founder member, The Secret Pentax Society of twited pigs ========================================================
