"For Sale: Canon EOS 1000D.
Description: only used underwater once, in the Pacific Ocean, for approximately one year.
Actual story: found off the end of a wharf in Deep Bay, BC while I was diving on a job for the harbour. I removed the SD card, cleaned it up, stuck it in a card reader and after being underwater in a corroding camera since August 2010 - it works! Approximately 50 pictures on the card from a family vacation. If you know a fire fighter from British Columbia whose team won the Pacific Regional Firefit competition, has a lovely wife and (now) 2 year old daughter - let me know. I would love to get them their vacation photos :)
There are other clues on within the pictures - I think we should be able to track them down (not sure he'll want the camera back tho).
This was posted by Google+ user Markus Thomson and he has subsequently discovered the camera's owner. Plans are now afoot to reunite the owner with his pictures, although he may not want the camera back.
