I would first try just leaving the back open, lens removed, and the battery removed/compartment cover open, and set on a shelf in a dust free area for a week or so. If the water got in that easily, it will eventually evaporate out. Patience is the key, dont expect it to work right away after getting wet. And dont put it in the oven or soak in any liquids like alcohol. The alcohol will get into the viewfinder / prism area and make a mess. This story reminds me of the time back about 1968 or so when my uncle's prize FM radio fell into the toilet while he was shaving. He opened it up, let it dry for a couple days, and it worked fine ! |
