Looking for some warm, waterproof gloves for woodland photography that are flexible enough to use on my camera controls and don’t cost a fortune. Any recommendations?
 
I was also going to suggest Sealskins if waterproof is important to you. The issue with gloves is the general rule that the warmer you need them to be the less dextrous they become. Have a look at shooting gloves with fold back fingers and thumbs as well.
 
I have been using for years a pair of work gloves for working in cold environments rubbery outside with a fluffy lining, just cut off a finger and thumbs from the gloves
Have seen similar for sale in Aldi recently probably get them in Screwfix too
 
I bought these Sealskinz ones last winter and they work for me. I still have to take them off occasionally, but I can do most things with them on.
 
Plus I wear surgical rubber gloves inside my Sealskinz, it’s surprisingly effective at keeping my hands warm ;)
 
FWIW

I have recently seen adverts on the phone for a brand called Otex which I think might be an Aussie brand?
 
I have a pair of Otex and they are good gloves but be aware they are tight across the knuckles compared to Valleret.

This is only my personal experience YMMV.
