How cold?

Mamiya suggests only having it in the cold long enough to get your shot, then stowing it again. Again, I think it depends on the temp.

I have used one in about -6C (20F) for a few hours with no issues.

Mamiya's advice is probably just cautionary.

It may have more to do with the battery than the mechanics of the camera. Just guessing here ...
