Don't worry about it; I've been using umpteen digital cameras outside in far worse conditions than you mentioned - high wind, blowing snow, temperatures far worse than what you mentioned (although you didn't specify which "zero"), mountainous areas (Korea, northern Manchuria, South Dakotan blizzard, etc. I've also had no trouble with condensation.

As others have said, stock up on batteries, especially if take video.
