Yesterday I took my NX30 out on a small walk around town with my wife and child. It was a pretty foggy weather at first and started raining slightly after a while so I decided to put the camera away. Sometime later we where caught by some heavy rain, but the camera was safely tucked away underneath the baby pram.
Anyway I got home and left the camera in the hallway to acclimatise, without battery. Late in the evening I brought it up and left it in the living room for another day, but when I tried powering it on today it was a total dud. Dead. Diseased.

Can anyone give me advise on this? Did I actually mistreat it so badly to deserve the camera dying on me? For now I'm leaving it for another night and plan trying to get it fixed under warranty if it still doesnt work, but I hoped perhaps someone here can come up with a solution...

Edit:
Note, the camera wasnt seemingly wet at all, it only had very slight drops on it when I put it away

Never had an NX30, but I have brought more than one P&S back with a couple of days in dry rice.  Would be my first course of action.
