Hi, i'm off to Saareselkia in Lapland next week for a few days and wondered if anybody on here can give me any advice on the use of Digital Cameras & Video cameras..............is there anything i should know regarding the use of these and whether they actually work in sub zero temperatures at all ???
Also whats the experience like for changing into your thermals, Michelin man suits etc.... i mean is it all done at the airport or at your hotel ??
Thanks in advance..
Looking at the webcams tonight they are getting quite a bit of snow now, which is lovely. Have a lovely time, we are going on the 10th. Let me know how you get on.
Cheers for your reply...............we go to Saareselskia this Friday for 3 days.........the forecast has it down for Minus 13 on Saturday !!!!!
When you get to the airport you will meet your coach transfer. They then take you to a place that has all the equipment and it is very organised here, from where they kit you out. You take all your equipment and then are given a white carrier- large. You then write your name on the carrier and get back on the coach. Your equip will be put in luggage department.
We had an all in one thermal suit, Ski socks, snow boots, balaclava, gloves, hats. As for the thermals, you take your own. We too took our gloves and hats and scarves, for when the others got wet.
You will have a laugh when you put it all on and cook in the hotel. Who are you going with? (company)
All we were advised- and it was worth it. Take a large carrier and when you come inside from the cold temperature, make sure you put the camera/camcorder, straight into it. Reduces condensation and keeps it working!!
Sorry not sure if I have told you this before
