My camera may have got wet when I was in boat

hi
If the battery is weak, must replace with a new one, zoom struck open the cam check the zoom motor on the camera section give a little lubrication to loos it, if the motor not working replace it.

Basically you need then so you won't slip in places where there are wet surfaces like boats. Read here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boat_shoe

The fall was probably sufficient to damage some of the delicate componentry contained within the camera

Please try to charge the camera completely. Then, after it is charged, disconnect the charge cord and tun it on. This is all I can suggest with the data you shared.

If your camera got moisture inside and you turned it on before it had a chance to completely dry (usually takes several days) you may have caused a short circuit.

ok,
connect your positive 12v of your amp to the remote part of your amp. youll see it will turn on.

Can't possibly know without check things with a meter. However, you should always use a GFCI receptacle when working with power equipment outdoors.

My camera problems have been resolved, although I can't attest to how or why. After about six hours, as I prepared to pack off the little guy to the manufacturer, everything had gone back to normal. I'm left only to speculate that maybe the camera admitted some condensation from yesterday's frigid and wet weather which whacked out its electronic nervous system temporarily. I have no clue.

Your lens is not responding as the cameras computer thinks it should, it may have got wet, banged, dirt grit or sand may have got in and is jamming it, unfortunately this will mean the camera is in need of opening up for attention.

Best of luck

Camera + water is like wicked witch in Wizard of Oz. You are going to have to send your camera in and see if they can save it.
