#N:pur-ee:8400003:000:673 pur-ee!malcolm Jul 13 00:53:00 1982 Last weekend I was unfortunate enough to have my $400 lens fall off my camera into a creek. A little water was able to leak into it before I could snatch it out. Since the water got into it, I should be able to get it out (right?). I don't have the money right now to send it in to a repair shop and have it done right, but would like to at least have the use of the lens (dirt and all) for snapshots. Has anybody tried to dry a lens out? I have thought of putting it in a warm (80-90 degrees) oven. Any hints would be appreciated. Thanks.
