Never has flooded. Sony DV camcorder is in excellent condition - includes two batteries in very good chargeble condition. Also included: charging/firewire cradle, firewire, Sony wide angle lens, charger, PC cables & wireless remote. Incredibly easy to use & transport...given today's airline restrictions!
