Canon EOS 1000D Washes Ashore After Over A Year In The Ocean!

This was once a fully functional Canon EOS 1000D, now hardly a wreck of the ocean! It was recently posted on Google+; User Marcus Thompson, found the DSLR washed up on a diving job in Bay British Columbia, Canada, and decided to take it home to find out what could be saved.

After removing and cleaning the SanDisk Extreme III SD card inside of it, he was successfully able to recover about 50 photos with EXIF data from August 2010, showcasing what’s described to be a firefighter and his family on vacation. Marcus posted the story and a few identifying details he was able to dig up from the photos, and guess what?! His original post on Google+ has been updated, noting that the owner of the camera has been identified!
