Abstract: An electrically heated jacket for use on a video camera or the like which enables the camera to be used in cold temperatures. The jacket comprises a flexible member having heating elements embedded therein and which may be positioned around the camera and secured thereto by suitable connectors. The jacket conforms to the shape of the camera and has selectively closeable openings to provide access to various camera controls. The jacket is formed from a flat sheet of insulative material with a forward flap operable to selectively cover the lens on the camera. Flaps along opposing side edges of the sheet will wrap over the top of the camera to permit a handle on the camera to project from the jacket.
