About moisture condensation . . .
You may have observed that pouring a cold liquid into a glass will cause drops of water to
form on the glass’ outer surface. This same phenomenon occurs on the lens of the
camera when it is moved from a cool place to a warm place, after heating a cold room,
under extremely humid conditions or in a place directly subjected to the cool air from an
air conditioner.
