Sony Dsc h2o dropped in water

Today, we accidentally dropped our Sony in water. I'm wondering if there is anything we can do to save the camera? It will still turn on, but continues to ask for the memory card... even when it's in the camera

Sony DSC 585 Digital Camera needs repair, is it worth it

I'd say the camera's had a good life. Technology's moved along so much in the past decade that any current camera would be a large step forward.

Things to check first for a camera that won't turn on, or works intermittently are the battery contact points, ensuring that they're clean, and making good contact with the battery.

The camera was dipped into water and it was not functioning right now.

It could already be dead, water and electricity don't mix, but you could try this.

Take out the battery (If anything like this ever happens again, camera, mobile phone, anything electrical, remove batteries immediately).

Put it in a dry warm place, airing cupboard, over a radiator (but not on) for a few days to dry out the circuits, then put the battery in and try again.

If it doesn't show any signs of life then, I'm afraid its had it. But if you've accidental damage cover on your home insurance, you should be able to claim against that for a new one.

Orange light stays on and camera doesnt switch on

Water is second only to fire as being the most destructive thing you can subject your camera to.

Sorry, but it is a write-off. Even after drying out there will be residual and ongoing corrosion and retained moisture in internal components. This is specifically why your warranty is invalidated by such damage and why no camera repairer will even attempt a repair.

All you can do is to see whether you can claim for accidental damage on any insurance policies which you may have.
