Always sleep with your digital camera inside your sleeping bag. This means that the camera battery doesn't freeze up during the night and it's ready to shoot immediately you get going the next morning. Make sure your picture cards are properly insulated as well. I once had a disaster when one of mine cracked and became unuseable due to freezing conditions. I lost all the pics of half of my Everest trek.
