Will this camera get ruined if operating under -10 degrees celsius?the average low is above this in western NY but it can fall below -10 celsius

Dear customer; -10 degree celsius will not hurt the camera; and in case of any damage that is caused by this temperature, our camera comes with an one year warranty and we will fully support it.

Antonino, We use our cameras inside, so do not know if they would work outside at that cold temp

I use a number of my cameras outdoors without any enclosure. I mount them under eves and in an area where they are somewhat protected from rain. After a year of use (in all seasons and in temperatures as low as around 10 to 15 degrees F, I have had no problems at all.

No idea. However, similar electronic devices I specify are rated to zero degrees C. It's inexpensive, simple, and I wouldn't hesitate to use it at low temps.

Depends on what you mean by cold. We have had some 15-20 degree lows here where I hunt this season. It didn't seem to affect it's performance. If you run alkaline batteries like I am, you will experience a significantly reduced battery life below freezing. However, that's par for the course with all cams.

Living in sunny California, I have no idea what -45F can do to a camera. Around here, +45F is rare. But electronics usually handle cold very well. Rain, sun, and wind are more likely to damage it.

I have had it for a bit more than a year now. The camera works great still. However, it wasnt all that great in the winter in Northern NY. This is mostly due to the construction of the rear of my car. There is a nice shelf below the licence plate for the snow to pile up on. Anytime more than 6" fell, the camera would become immersed in snow. After removing the snow, the camera didnt have a good picture for 30 mins or so. The finish hasnt seemed to fade anywhere except where I snugged up on the bolts. If you never move the bolts, you wouldnt notice it.

I haven't used my A710 in freezing temps yet, but I have used the A620, SD450, and S400 without any problems besides the batteries dying quicker due to the cold. Haven't had a problem with moisture until I dropped my A620 into a river, that definitely killed it. Almost killed my A710 recently by getting sand in the retractable lens, but it worked it's way out.

Yup I believe so. We have 3 cameras outside and we live in new York... This winter has been extreme and so far all 3 have withstanded the elements.

I had issues with this camera about one week after I purchased it and I really think it was heat related. It was only about 85 degrees out, so not terribly warm. But my camera started shutting off and restarting over and over. I brought it in the house, and the next day it seemed to work fine. I read that others had the same type of issue after extreme heat. I try not to leave the camera in the car now, but its problematic to always remember to take it with you.

Use a class 6 memory card. A class 10 card makes the camera have issues like videos not looping and corrupted videos. DO NOT use a class 10 memory card. The manual states this. Many people have had serious issues with class 10 cards from the camera not looping to the camera not recording. A class 6 card from a decent manufacturer is perfect, you don't need a class 10 and you shouldn't use one. The camera doesn't have "heating issues". In the summer an interior of a car can get very, very hot, this is bad for the lifespan of the camera, as the camera makes its own heat when in use. Temperatures in cars are A LOT hotter than outside temps. If the outside temp is 90F { 30C &lt;-- max external temp for operating the camera} then the temp inside your car is much higher {105F / 40C &lt;-- max. internal temp for operating the camera} etc. The cameras can fail after those temps for any real length of time. They aren't supposed to be in cold temps {36F / 2C} for any length of time either. The camera gets very warm under general use and gets very hot in those high temps. Also, depending on your car, you aren't supposed to run your A/C, headlights or rear defroster when something is plugged into your adapter socket.

The literature with the camera rates them at down to 32 degrees fahrenheit, which is an obvious problem for winter states. However, I found other information which stated 14 degrees.

I have no experience with those kind of ambient temperatures. With only a 90 day warranty be cautious. I had 3 out of 4 of these cameras simultaneously quit working altogether after one year.

I have used this camera to a temp of about -20 degrees F, and it took pics. However, it is not waterproof, do not buy this camera.

I have had no issues with water as far as cold my lowest temp to date has been 30 degrees but the camera has performed very well since I have had it about 2 months

Being in NYS, this camera just survived Sandy's furry and lived with no issues. so i can attest to its water resistance. As for battery life in cold temps, unless you find a game camera that is insulated, or figure out a way to rig it up yourself, theyre all going to be about the same. that's not really up to the camera. more up to the batteries that you use in it.

15 degrees Fahrenheit to 150 degrees Fahrenheit. Since you are using this in your car you shouldn't have a problem operating this camera, since I'm sure your A|C will be on if the temp is 120 outside. Hope that helps
