RE: Filming in the snow/moisture
They make rain covers for the cameras. Here's one that would probably work on yours. It's $85, but if your serious about using it in the rain/snow, it's insurance for your camera.

RE: Filming in the snow/moisture
Here's another from the same site that's $89.
The rain cape VC-MC is a universal rain cape which is suitable for a wide range of camcorders from all leading manufacturers.
It can accommodate camcorder systems with a length of 22 to 28cm. ( 8 2/3 - 11 inches )
The VC-MC rain cape is manufactured from a special PVC and has an integrated, optically neutral flat glass port to protect the camcorders lens against rain, salt spray, sand dirt, etc.
The front glass is held in position by means of a special metal bar that connects directly to the camcorders tripod thread. The cape allows both hand held as well as tripod operation of the camera.
The VC-MC can be closed by means of press-studs at the bottom.
