Went out to a local park to shoot birds after the rain let up. It's hot and humid this time of year in my area. The AC is on in the house where my camera stays. Need I say more. Lesson learned...until next year.

I've done this so many times I can't count on both hands how many times my lens fogged up from being cold then exposed to humidity. Hopefully nothing happened (until next year comment makes me think otherwise).

No obvious damage to the lens. My comment about next year was meant to imply I'll forget and do the same thing early next summer.
