So recently i dropped my Lumix DMC-12 into water, i immediately retreived it and removed the battery so fast i was confused and wondering what did i do? afterwards.
I left it in front of my heater to dry for 24 hours, i even opened it up to dry the internals with a very soft cloth and unused toothbrush.
When i powered it on the lens kept going in and out until i got a “Please turn your camera off then on again” message, i did so and it still kept happening, when it turned off the lens were out instead of in.
i was messing with it when i finally got it to work, idk if it was becausee i pushed it off my desk or that i held the lens when shutting down so it dont come out, but whatever i did it fixed that issue but there was still condensation in the lcd and lens, i opened up the camera and cleaned the lcd then left it front of my heater again to dry the lens, when i finally dried the inside of the lens it didnt give me any video, just black (and occasinal glitches) And the audio in anything i record is gone, the Lens looks okay when i opened it up and i dont know how to dissasemble the camera enough to access the broken parts therefore i have no idea how to fix it.
If you know any online guides and/or any websites where i can get replacement parts for cheap, Pleae, please, PLEASE! Give me the links.
im begging you! Plz help me fix this thing!
thanks for any help you can give me
