I would keep the batteries warm (in my pocket), for starters. A cheap way of protecting the cam/keeping it warm for a while is to wrap in Saran Wrap. You can also tape an umbrella to your tripod or set up a canopy, or shoot from your car.

The only real winter cover I know of is the Porta Brace Polar Bear cover. There is an XL1 model, but it's not cheap.

Do a search on weather, underwater and things like that. The
subject has been discussed quite a lot on the forum already. Thanks.
