While in Antarctica, US Navy, I kept mine under my coat. Take it out shoot, then back under the coat again. This was 1961-1964 when it was film cameras.
In able to use the camera continuously in that weather, it had st be "winterized", all lubrication removed, prior to deployment. I didn't want to do that with my Leica IIIG so I used the "under-out-shoot-under" routine. It worked quite well.

I've used my D700 in temperatures down to -25 (F) without a problem, though the time frame covered less than an hour.

@Aetas That is a shot of the ice caves on Lake Superior by the Apostle Islands. Its about a 3 mile hike on the lake in February. Very Beautiful with the sandstone and snow and ice.
