What gloves do you recommend for use with manual focus lenses?
I have some gloves from Lowe Pro, but at temperatures of -5 to -10 degrees Celsius do not feel comfortable with them.

I like the Sealskin gloves, waterproof and a very good fit. I'v worn them out in snow and found them very good, but we don't get the cold temperatures you do. There are 'photographers gloves' in their range which I haven't tried, I just bought these 'winter gloves' at an outdoor stoor. There are leather grips on the finger tips and I manage to use a camera with them on, it's a bit of a fiddle - but wearing any glove is going to be like that.

Thank you for your answer. Unfortunately the Sealskinz distributor in my area has only small sizes photo gloves.

These are not for extremely cold temperatures but they are form fitting and give you good tactile control. You could wear them as a liner and remove your outer gloves while actively photographing, thus preserving some protection from the cold.
