I had my first camera flood (hopefully my last) on a recent trip resulting in my Nikon D800 and its 14-24mm becoming seemingly nothing more than paperweights.
I contact a reputable camera repair place and they assure me that neither the camera nor lens are salvageable.
Now I'm wondering whether there is any value left in the body of the camera if it were to be gutted and rebuilt.
Outside of this I guess I'm purchasing a new camera and lens. Fortunately I've had the housing checked and its fine and they have fitted a vacuum system that should help me avoid future floods.
