Well my 3 year old F10 fell into a kiddie pool. It was removed quickly and I let it try out for a week. Thankfully the memory card is good and I got the pictures off of it. The camera will turn on and take pictures put they don't look good anymore. The pictures have lines in them. Also the lens cover will not close all the way anymore when the camera is off. There appears to be a tiny scratch on the lens also. Not sure if that was already there before or not.

The lens cover doesn't bother me much, however the pictures quality does. Will letting it dry out long do any good, or is it dead? If it is dead, should I just get another F10 or is there a newer camera like it that doesn't cost more than $80 (refurbished F10 on ebay is $80). Would like for the camera to use XD memory since I have a 1gig card that seems to be working after its bath.

Looking at the Fuji F40 or F47. Anyone know how they compare to the F10? And, yeah I guess memory card shouldn't really matter.

How about a Sony Cybershot DSC-W120. My parents may sale me theirs for a good price.
