Curious thing happened yesterday: My brand new camera flooded while in the rinse bin. Blasted dessicant was completely ruined. Anywho, took the camera out of the housing, removed the battery, took the cards up, wrapped the mess up in a towel and had some fantastic dives.
I get back to the hotel room, open all the little doors on the camera and propped it on top of lampshade, turned the light on, and left the light on overnight.
This morning, I put the battery back in the camera, the lens immediately retracted, I turned the power on, and the LCD monitor came on, menues came on... I took pictures and movies and downloaded them to my computer. The camera now works.
Anyone have experience with a camera coming back to life after being flooded? Is the resurection real? Or like a godhead, is it only for a little while until the permament accension occurs?
Not sure if I should file a claim or not, I have the opinion of a trsuted source, but also wanted to get feedback from folks who might have experience with eletrconics getting wet.
Thanks
Michael
