Hi all,

Slightly off topic, but thought some of you would be interested.

Most of you would remember my canon 40D getting soaked in saltwater while on holidays lat year. I decided to pull it apart last night because it was not worth repairing.

This is fantastic. Have you tried putting it back together yet :lol:

Wonder if it is ink or a corrosion cell?

Fantastic, interesting and a tad odd.

What was the official cause of death? And will any charges be laid? (does "Negligence causing Death" exist? :lol:

You mean "don't let camera get in contact with Numloxx" don't you? ;)
