rogue wave, camera won't turn on :(

The weather sealing is mainly for dust.
Or put another way, the weather sealing makes the camera a bit more water-resistant, but DSLRs with no weather-sealing are water-resistant.

So I found out this morning that the camera is indeed insured, what a huge relief. I thought I had put a seperate policy just on the gear and not just renter's insurance but I couldn't remember, glad I made up for my forgetfulness with some foresight.

Well in that case throw all your gear into the briny deep!
