Canon a720 LCD doesn"t turn on after getting wet.

Turn off immediately! Dry thoroughly! Put in airing cupboard or near radiator ( not on it ) for a few hours! Then try powering up again!

put it in rice for 2 days,or replace screen

When this happens, immediately remove the battery. Let the phone dry (it may take several hours) before you put the battery back in and try to turn it on. If it is only water, and you act quickly enough, your phone may be okay.

Dear sir,

It seems  ur battery is weak , since it  use  AA battery put new alkaline batteries  & then try .. I beleive it will take pictures  with snap .

Check whether your LCD is bad. To do this, shoot a picture and then download to PC. If the picture is ok, then LCD is bad. You need to replace it.

HELLO, Since you have dried up the water in television, you can power the television on and quickly put it off. if you observe nothing that is a sound when you power it on. you can now put it on for use... Good luck.....

It's really hard to get water out of a camera. You can allow it to dry out but still have water inside... and the longer it's in there, the more chance it's going to cause metal parts to corrode and rust.
If you don't want to open this camera up and do some work to dry it out (this is tricky and you run the risk of damaging something as you open/close the camera.
Another last ditch method is to remove the batts, and card, leave the compartments open, and then put it in a sealable plastic bag along with an open pint container of silica gel (you know, that stuff they put in the box with new cameras etc. to absorb moisture). You can purchase silica gel in quantity at a hobby shop and it's actually reusable if you follow directions.
Leave the camera and the container of sil.gel. in the bag for several days-at this point you're just hoping to save a camera that's most likely not going to be saved.
Other than that, you could send it in, but to be honest, used electronics such as cameras are more expensive to fix than they are to replace.
The newer powershots have better resolution, and more features so if you love this camera, I think you will be blown away with the newer ones with more features... and the prices are fairly reasonable too.
Hope this helps you make the call...

I did not receive a fix ya solution; somebody sent me a post that included links for new cameras. I was put off by this smart *** type of response.

I ended up finding my bill for the camera and it still had warranty; I took it to Staples where I bought it and they gave me a 50% depreciated value for the camera. I will never by another Cannon camera and I will never shop at staples again, bad experiences with both.

Well you can try not to turn it on and let it dry out in a DRY room

But if you turn it on after it was still wet or it was not fully dried ...Then

you have to bring it to a camera repair shop I would call around but

make sure that you do not tell them it was wet because it they may tell you that

there is more problems then just the LCD screen.... So if the board is wet and

there was power turn on there will be clear signs of the residue left from the rain...



You can also call Canon to see if they no of any Camera Shops in your area that will Repair 

it or Maybe give you a trade in credit towards a used or new camera,





Thank You
