    I don't know who I feel worse for, the photographer who took the dunk or the bride who just lost her pictures!

    at least they will have a story for their grandkids....

    the was an addendum (if it's true) on youtube that said his gear survived the plunge. ; that would be a small miracle.

    I'm glad to hear that no camera equipment was harmed in the making of the video.

    If it was 1D level gear I'd expect it to survive this. ; Someone once told me a story (that I can't actually verify) that said that people with the weather sealed type stuff will HOSE their lenses and cameras down to clean them. ; That sounds a little extreme to me, but..

    On the minimum end I don't expect that kind of exposure to effect a compact flash card. ; I mean unless the fountain was filled with salt water. ; The pictures taken thus far should be fine. ; I expect that even if it's not weather sealed gear that the cameras and lenses shouldn't be destroyed and might just be in need of a thorough cleaning.
