I have a canon rebel xt digital camera
and I want to be able to take it with me always. but there is some places here that will not let you bring a camera in a store with you. in fear you are going to take pictures and open a store like theirs lol

my question is this as some know I live in Arizona in the middle of the desert and 120 degrees is normal here in the summer and can get to 130 to 140 in your car. so leaving my camera in the car for a period of time worries me. I left my IPOD video in the car for a couple hours and it wouldnt play untill I brought it in the house and it cooled down. then it was fine.

so being the camera is digital I take it that its like a computer and dont like heat. or is it designed to shoot everything from egloos to volcanos lol
Thank you for your time
