Extending the life of my Avigilon 2MP PTZ and HD Bullet cam

[traderjay 0]

I just realized that the price I've paid for the two cameras are an absolute bargain and no consumer kit will ever come close the quality or functionality. I live in Toronto Canada and the winter here frequently dips below -4F and I am wondering what are the best practices to maximize the longevity of the cameras? There are quite a number of moving parts in both cameras so would lets say fixing the focus and turning off AF extend the longevity of the AF mechanism? Or these cameras are so well made that I shouldn't need to worry ?

They do have a great warranty.

Well I bought them on Ebay so I doub't they are covered under the original warranty.
