I can confirm, along with the other posts, the H3D/II series cameras perform reasonably well in 0 to -20c temperatures. If you keep several battery grips, inside your clothing, and close to you body, you can expect 20-45 minutes of operation per battery. Other than battery performance (as expected), the camera does well.
I have had some clients use the ImageBank II, along with snap-on Sony L-Type Li-Ion batteries, inside there clothing, which allows much longer, sustained operation. In this configuration, the camera/back draws a considerable amount of power from the Sony Li-Ion, via FireWire 800, and only relies on the battery grip to power to basic mechanics of the camera body.

So Im looking into buying the Hasselblad H3DII-31 on that summer offer now. I do quite a lot of work in cold temperatures, 0 to -20 Celcius. Does anyone have experience working with any of the H2/3 cams with Hassy backs under such conditions?
According to the dealer it could only effect the battery time but how much they did not know..
Thanks in advance / Daniel Blom
