Yes, that can be a problem.  The way to get around it is to carry a 
big ziplock bag in your camera bag.  When you are in a cold, 
air-conditioned place and expect to go out into a warm, humid place, 
put the camera in the bag and seal it.  Wait until the camera warms 
up before you open the bag.  Condensation won't form on the camera if 
it is the same temperature as the air.
