I dropped my camera in the pool ...

and it sank to the bottom before I could retrieve it. A week later it was fully operational again. Just one problem. Everytime I switch on the camera I need to set the date and time again. How can I fix it to keep the date and time on a permanent basis. I'm not referring to the date stamp option.

At the hardware store there is a product called Damp-Rid which absorbs moisture. Put your camera in a ZipLock bag along with the Damp-Rid (or other named similar product. It is basically anhydrous Calcium Chloride and is also available at pool supply stores). Leave the bag closed for a few days with the camera opened up inside the bag to allow the moisture to transfer from camera to chemical. Do NOT put the CaCl inside the camera on anywhere on the camera but keep them separate. Hopefully, getting the rest of the moisture out will solve the problem, but if corrosion has already set in you could be stuck with the "reset date and time" or a trip to the repair shop to fix it.
