I would be very gratefull of any help or advice of this matter,
and also tips of taking photos of snow in day light and the dark.

Thanks in advance

Welcome..

The specified safe operating temperatures of the 350d are between 0 C and 40 C, however I reckon in reality you should be able to use it, with the batteries suffering the most, they'll probably not last long (they don't like the cold). I've read about focusing mechanisms freezing up in those kinds of temperatures as well, so thats something else to consider
