[Leica] WAS Bald Eagles - now AC on a camera ;-)

[philippe.amard at sfr.fr (philippe.amard)]

Is there any camera out there with a heating device on the controls  
and trigger?
Just wondering as I remember my numb finger not being able to feel  
where that b... trigger was when on top of the Empire state last Feb -  
Nikon is bad in that respect
