I think with a little work I can get this Canon R and 24-105 lens back into shape.

Just like when the car burned in Planes, Trains and Automobiles. They can buff it out.
 
If Canon did horror movies . . . I am guessing that has been on the seabed for a while?
 
Wow, what a mess!
 
I follow a photographer, Trey Ratcliff who lives down in New Zealand. He posted this last year, said the found it while shooting around some tide pools along the coast. Still on a tripod but underwater so maybe a rogue wave took it out of someone's reach. I saved the images and used them in a workshop I did on how to clean and maintain one's camera gear.
 
I wonder what was the story behind that camera. Why the owner left it there?
 
I keep meditating about this photo, do you think that the owner is dead? If that happened to me I would "terminate" my life right there! o_O
 
:oops: Ehh, nothing a little spit couldn’t clean up.

    Fast, sharp, and lightweight! A great lens
    This is my main workhorse of a lens and I love it. It's very light weight (only around 2.3 lbs) lens. I've been able to hand-hold it for an event...
