Does anyone know how's the touchscreen performing in very cold weather like -20 celsius?
 
In that picture, the touchscreen does not seem very responsive anymore...
 
you also have consider how the touchscreen will respond when wearing gloves in cold weather !
There is a need for REDstylus, or just use it for monitoring only when its arctic

i suppose lol, i think if you're filming in such extreme weather, wouldn't you want some weather proofing or some kinda cover around the camera and/or LCD?
 
well developers, get on it and i want 33 percent of everysale of such product "Scarlet X LCD protector/warmer
 
I'm curious about this as well. Smart gloves seem like they'd be the best option for colder weather. I'll do some testing when winter presents itself (though I don't know how low temperatures will drop). We have some gloves by Ssamzie that work really well. They negate the 'incompatible fingers' issue that some people experience.

ok, that's solves half of the problem but what is protecting the LCD from freezing and blurring the screen with the frost?
 
I shot with my EPIC-M for 3 days in Canada's Northwest Territories. Average temperature was -10 Celsius and we had heavy snowfall. I never had a single issue from the cold or snow. The brain's core temp never dropped below 27 Celsius. I would say EPIC is quite happy as a cold Canuck.

Great news. Did you use the Bomb EVF or LCD?
