Can the vapor/drizzle from Niagra Falls damage my Nikon D40? Does vapor damage sensor/lenses???

Question

i remember that on Niagara falls there is huge amounts of vapor and drizzle coming off the falls, especially when you take a boat ride under it, can that damage my camera (D40)

what happens if sensor and lenses get vaporized???

Answer 1

Either buy a waterproof housing or cover for your camera or leave it safely in a waterproof camera bag.

Getting your camera wet will likely ruin it, especially if its ON when it gets wet. Water and electronic circuits are mortal enemies.

You can check the Nikon website for a waterproof case or you can look here:
