The risks we take to get great pics, sometimes come back to bite us.

It's a sad day, I'll put arm bands on all of mine in honor of the man down!

That sure does suck. I've always been afraid to get a cam down by water level for this reason. Hope some of it is reusable if there is any damage.

Yes the cam is toast...and the moisture sat in it long enough that the board is fried too. It was a S730 and I used one of those super thin plastic lens extensions that I always seem to have moisture issues with. I'm not too choked though as the S730 cam CCD was on it's way out anyway. I think if I replace the snorkel with one of the ones Ken or Tbass have the case will still be good, but I don't think I want another S730...yeah they take good pics but very slow and use up the batts...not sure what else would fit in it's place...might have to research.
