In that story he said the victim had done the right thing by bringing in the camera and equipment scooped out of the water in a pail, still submerged. He said that the biggest problem with submerged cameras is the way in which they are dried out. Your comment re film residue on the film plate seem indicative of this. It reminded me of how divers go through a pressure chamber after a fast surface to prevent the "bends". Good luck. Peace! Sidney -- God said, Let there be light! Divine Light: Photography by Rev.
