The only thing there snoopy is to check battery temperature say ever 5 mins to make sure it doesnt get cold. I also took off and hoovered for 3 to 4 mins to warm her up. Whether it helps or not I dont know.

Battery stays nice and warm, even at -3F. Mobile device battery drain is the biggest issue in these temps.

Thanks an I don’t mind warming up for a few

You can wrap the battery with hand warmers which last a few hours. It won't drain the juice as fast. That's what I did when I went to Iceland while on tours.

Essential to keep your batteries warm. Jacket inside pocket works, Only take out immediately before use. Current during flight keeps the battery warm.

Basically, most cameras will include a fair bit of data with an image. Metadata like a date/timestamp, what kind of camera, and camera settings, but can also include gps location.
