\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0Frostbite prevention<\/strong> \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If your hands or feet start feeling chilled, do some exercise to warm them up or go indoors. If your hands, feet, ears, nose, or other extremities, start losing sense due to the cold, do not toast or wash them with hot water. Ideally, retreat to a warmer indoor environment and rub them vigorously to restore the circulation slowly.<\/span><\/p>\n

The average in January is high in Harbin, which is -13\u00b0C (8\u00b0F). The cold saps the battery life. Usually, a fully charged camera battery will last for 50 shots (without flash), but in these cold conditions around 25 shots will work. If you take the battery out and warm it for a while, you may be able to take another 10 shots. You can try repeating this action. It is also recommended, that you keep the camera inside your down jacket when not using it. The more batteries you have, the more photos your camera allow you to take, as those keep the camera warm.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
