Willem-Jan does, and he gave us a rundown on what he found out at
Photokina.  I must say, however, that the refrigeration requirements
cooled (pun intended) my enthusiasm very quickly.  Fine for scientific
work, perhaps, but not very practical for most picture-taking
purposes.

When Willem-Jan gets out on the ski slopes, however...
