We find the joint effect of non-zero temperature and finite conductivity onto the Casimir force between real metals. Configurations of two parallel plates and a sphere (lens) above a plate are considered. Perturbation theory in two parameters (the relative temperature and the relative penetration depth of zero point oscillations into the metal) is developed. Perturbative results are compared with computations. Recent evidence concerning possible existence of large temperature corrections at small separations between the real metals is not supported.
