I’ve written a review before about this camera when i got this last year of june. And i totally loved it, we loved it.
And another review after it got flooded.
This is my 3rd review of this camera.

We got this June 2009… Have been very useful in our nature trips both for taking underwater photos and videos… most esp. with salt/fresh water. We’ve used this in so many places which involves salt water!

April 2010 — was about to use it for our night swimming at a workmate’s place.
Was able to take 5 photos in the pool shower. While dipped in the pool, i tried to take shots, was able to take one shot in the pool and a short video, then it suddenly turned off… Bham! Wont turn on. Looking at it, screen and lens began to show waters in them, guessing water went in the A/V port seal, because when i checked all seals, its the one wet inside.
When i got home, it got even more obvious, the water totally flooding the lens like it’s crying and so as the mists on its screen.

So we bought a new D10 for me to be able to use for my upcoming spelunking/trekking trip in the highlands.
My then BF now hubby, brother and I even kept it as a secret from my parents… =)))

I left it in the **** for my brother to use *lucky him* and bought all possible protections for it in case they will use it underwater (dicapac — weird but i did bought a dicapac for my 2nd D10), and brought the flooded D10 to the US since it was ordered here.

September 11, 2010 — was cleaning and rearranging stuffs at home… then i came across my flooded D10, no more water in the lens, and only got some few mists / fog on the screen but barely noticeable……it has been looking dry 2 months ago but its still dead each time i attempted turning on its power…
*we have not thrown it yet coz we planned to return it to canon which we forgot to or we can just dissect it and play with it in the future *

i know it’s broken, but i just want to mess with it this time, putting the battery on the camera and pushed the power button…

Waaaaaaaaaah! — it turned on!
I took my first shot ever since it got flooded…
I had a decent one!

And took more shots to test it…
All photos turned out so fine and there’s no sign of weird markings that the flooding may have caused.
Plus… its original canon battery, still has charge in it. The last time it was charged was April 2010, and it’s already September 2010. This is a wow for me and my husband!

Now my concern is my camera’s accessories which i left in the **** with my brother having my 2nd and newer D10… case, strap, charger, and extra batts.

It’s working like its never been flooded…

This is a case of RESURRECTION!

CANON i salute you and i love you!

Imagine, my once dead Powershot D10 has revived life on its own!

To CANON:
if you want to see the before and after photos of my D10, feel free to email me for it. it’s even on my FB coz i was soooo happy about it and so astounded. I knew some people who had to bring their flooded D10′s in the repair centers and leave them there instead of having it repaired since the centers are asking for almost the same price to fix it…that’s nuts.. but hey… this is something you should check on your next waterproof camera, if you will be producing a new one. Test it for the same accident i had.
Though i know people doesnt have 3-4 months to wait for it to completely dry up internally. Like us, we bought a 2nd D10.
