I am been fighting with cold and rain recently. How to protect from the rain and cold while taking pictures ?
I have bought Mitaines (gloves without the end of the fingers but that can still be covered by an etra piece), I bought a 'Umbrella hat' (I should get it soon) for the light rain .. do you guys have any solutions ? WOuld you know about thin gloves that would not be slippery and risk let the camera fall ?

Lionel, I have seen some fairly ingenious 'mounts' that allow you to mount an umbrella to your tripod. I have actually thought about building one of these myself at some point... I believe it would be best to NOT work with the camera using gloves that could be wet...
Thin gloves that will keep your hands warm and won't let your camera slip...football - receiver gloves. I'm not sure if you are from America or not, so I don't know how hard they'd be for you to come by but here in America they have them at most sporting good stores.
Sonia, I could find the umbrella hat in only one or 2 places on the web, I shuold get it in a few days. I will let you know. I was proud of the idea even if I will probably lok stupid ;-) Umbrella hat
Jr,Yeap I am in Us I will check these gloves to see how they are.
John, I will try to do something like that as well with some accessories .. I was just concern in that case about my camera flying :-( .. actually .. just thought that in that case int should be on a second tripod otherwise it would generate too much vibrations.
