I always do some recon of the area I will be taking pix at. I always carry an extra back-up battery (fully charged), and if it's cold outside I keep the extras inside the jacket. Cold likes to sap the strength out of them, so if it's cold wherever you are, keep your power source warm. I also set my cameras down on the landing to get them used to the cold. I find that way they don't freeze-up on me. I live in WI, and it gets cold up here. Bring x-tra cards also. Where do you shoot and what do you shoot?
