removce the batteries and set it someplace warm and dry allowing it to completely dry for at least 24 hours.
Replace the batteries. It might work, but it's probably toast

digital cameras have a mushy easy sensor that records the photos, if it have been given moist you're in all probability executed. If the sensor did not get moist then the water interior could dry out after some days. do not attempt to apply it anymore at the same time as that is moist. If it does not dry, you would be waiting to take it to a save and make a cope with them - you in basic terms pay in the event that they are able to repair it. this could in all probability fee lots in spite of the incontrovertible fact that as they'll would desire to change factors maximum possibly. you're extra constructive off procuring a clean digital camera.

That camera model is 3 1/2 years old...time to get a new one.
Perhaps you should consider one of Olympus's new waterproof cameras if you insist on taking it near water.

I'm afraid your camera is now a paperweight. Time to buy a new camera.
