That was me unfortunately mate.. Bag didn't get touched as it was over on dry ground but everything else including me definitely got drenched. Unfortunately I only upgraded to my 5dmk2 just 2 weeks ago and it is now completely stuff.. today I handed it to Canon and it's on it's way to Sydney to see if there is any chance of saving it.. it's been in a huge bowl full of rice to hopefully get as much of the water out as possible and now fingers crossed the repair guys in Sydney might be able to salvage it. Definitely not expecting anything but a negative phone call in the next few days though.
