Camera water damage: 5 things to do immediately
Going to the beach and getting caught in the rain are common in Da Nang. If your camera unfortunately gets water inside, the first few minutes determine whether it can be saved.
- Turn off the camera and remove the battery immediately. Electric current while water is inside is the main cause of short circuits.
- Remove the memory card and lens.
- Wipe the exterior dry and keep the compartments facing down.
- Do not turn it on to test, do not use a heat dryer. High temperatures push water vapor deeper inside and warp plastic components.
- Bring it to a repair shop within 24 hours, and clearly state whether it was freshwater or saltwater.
