Originally posted by Jonathan Mac So now I'm back to having zero in my photography fund and still no decent WR lens.
Although WR is nice to have, my K 55/1.8 survived a whale tail splash at Sea World in Victoria BC Canada. The whale carefully aimed and soaked me and the KX with lens thoroughly, no doubt laughing its head off at the stupid photog who didn't have his camera in an underwater case.
To the immense amusement of my wife and teenagers, I retired rapidly to the nearest fountain and using my wet handkerchief wiped everything down throughly. The lens was still good quite a few years later and the camera also. Did I mention that this was
salt water?
