Question

Gloves for Winter Photography?

I am looking for some good warm gloves that still allow you to manipulate a DSLR or mirrorless camera, change lenses, etc. in the middle of winter. I live in the Buffalo, NY area, and so the winter temperatures here might get as low as 10 F with wind chills about –15 F in the worst case (and if the temperature got any lower, I'd probably stay home).

 

So what say you? Any recommendations?

    Golf gloves need to be flexible.  Go to your local golf pro shop and get a pair of thermal insulated winter golf gloves.

    Also get some some chemical pocket hand warmer packs.

    I will GUESS that gloves for that low a temp are not going to be very flexible
