Who can argue with the voice of experience -- in one case? I suspect
that some contacts were corroded by prolonged exposure to moisture.

I dropped a new F100 and zoom in a lake a couple of years ago from a

for repair. I was told by the tech to not dry the lens by forced
heat, it
did something to create stains that possibly could not be cleaned.
After about four months in my closet, both lens and camera are
virtually without issue. The lens worked fine, no problems. The
camera is working perfect except the small LED that flashes during
the self timer mode now stays on and uses up the batteries
relatively quick.
Take care,
