The incredible Canon G12 is back to life..
Apr 2, 2016

The Canon G12 (a present to my girlfriend) accidentally dropped in to a shallow seawater. Got the battery and the SD card out immediately and let it dry in a bag of rise for a week. Unfortunately, only the LCD worked, nothing else. Put it in my drawer and forgot it for a while, but got it in my hand about 2 moths later, nothing different, the same error message. Four years past since than. Organizing my drawer and got it in my hand again. – Surprise! Turned on without any error message, battery was flashing for charging need, but everything else works just fine. Made a short movie and 17 stills before recharged. Unbelievable! Great camera, great battery! Like new, absolutely no signs of any damage! Weird! Took 4 years to dry properly?
