Today I was out with my K-5 II around mid-day. It was a little hot and humid outside, but not too bad. I've used this camera just fine in worse conditions.
Anyway, as I was trying to use the camera, the viewfinder was fogged-up, and I tried to wipe the glass clean, but that did nothing. Apparently the moisture was inside. The camera would mostly still function, but I had no overlay info -- no focus point, exposure info, level indicator, etc. Basically, the viewfinder was only showing the scene. I'd get a focus-confirmation beep when pressing the shutter half-way, but nothing visual.
Once I got home, I put the camera down on my desk, went about some other business, and returned to it maybe 10 minutes later to diagnose the problem. I found that the fogginess was gone and the viewfinder overlay functions were back to normal. I was happy to see that the camera seems be working normally, but I'm wondering what happened.
Anybody know what happened? e.g., if there a correlation between humidity and the viewfinder overlay functions?
Thanks!
