You need to take out all moisture
trapped in the camera. You could do this: Dry the camera, battery, any accessory, etc. with
cloth and wrap each piece, camera and accessories, in
newspaper. Place a few handfuls of rice into a plastic bag and then place
the wrapped camera in the bag with rice. The newspaper wrapping avoids
direct contact of rice
with your camera because the dust from the rice can get into the small areas of
the camera. The newspaper and rice will absorb moisture. Leave it there (with
the bag open) at least 24 hrs.

Did you dry
the camera completely? If not here is the procedure to take out all moisture
trapped in the camera: Dry the camera, battery, any accessory, etc. with
cloth and wrap each piece, camera and accessories, in
newspaper. Place a few handfuls of rice into a plastic bag and then place
the wrapped camera in the bag with rice. The newspaper wrapping avoids
direct contact of rice
with your camera because the dust from the rice can get into the small areas of
the camera. The newspaper and rice will absorb moisture. Leave it there (with
the bag open) at least 24 hrs. Hope this helps!
It says DO NOT format on PC - you need to format in camera - have you done this? on Page 29 of the Manual http://panasonic.com.au/content/library/files/F002413.pdf
