Water — especially seawater — causes mainboards to corrode very quickly. The sooner you bring the camera in, the higher the chance of saving it.
What to do immediately when water gets into the camera
- Turn off the camera, remove the battery and memory card immediately. Do not try to turn the camera on.
- Wipe the exterior dry, position the camera with openings facing downwards so water can drain out.
- Do not use a hair dryer to dry it, and do not expose it to harsh sunlight.
- Bring the camera to the shop within 24 hours.
The shop disassembles the camera, washes the mainboard with a specialized solution, dries it at the correct temperature, and checks each component before quoting the price for any parts that need replacement.
