Many old film cameras use LCD panels of an active matrix display, or maybe termed as "thin-film-transistor liquid-crystal display", to show some basic and practical information such as the counting, ISO settings, etc. Unfortunately, they will probably leak liquids at some time. For example, the Minolta AF7000/AF9000, Contax G2, and etc.
I was trying to find out why this happens so that I can protect the LCD panels on my film cameras from leaking liquids. It is just like a time bomb I mean. My friend even told me that I should not keep the camera in a too dry surroundings as it will also damage the LCD panel (not sure if this is correct). I usually keep my cameras in the dry cabinet to avoid moulds, and now I was totally confused.
