Since water can damage electronics, if you happen to get your digital camera wet, you will need to take action immediately to reduce possible damage to the device. It isn't guaranteed that any method used to dry out a digital camera will work, but it is certainly worth a try. It just might work.
Instructions
1. Take the batteries and any memory stick or memory card from the camera immediately after it gets wet. Gently try to remove as much moisture as you can with a towel.
2. Place about two inches of rice in a deep bowl. Place the camera in the rice and pour enough rice over the top of the camera to cover it completely. Leave the camera in the rice for a day. The rice should absorb the moisture from the camera.
3. Feel the rice every so often to test it for moistness. If it does feel moist, repeat Step 2 with fresh dry rice. Keep the camera in the rice for a few days.
4. Put fresh batteries and memory stick or card in the camera and see if it works. If it won't work, you can try the rice method again. After that, you can try taking the camera to a camera repair shop.
