Hey all. I was wondering what would be the best to do when shooting while in blizzards. Maybe a little water wouldn't hurt? ;)

Thanks

I don't think your D70 is intended to be weather proof. A little water might not hurt if you wiped it off right away and none of it got inside. Changing lenses in a blizzard would be asking for trouble. Batteries don't last as long in colder temps so keep a spare warm by putting it in an inside pocket. And be careful of condensation when bringing the camera into a warm environment. Best solution is to put it into a plastic bag for a half hour and let it warm up slowly.
