Rant: A customer brought in a 1968 Nikon F with a stuck shutter from a flood in New Orleans, and I had to decide between a full strip-down or a targeted fix.

I'm torn because the full teardown is the 'right' way but risks breaking brittle parts, while the targeted fix is faster but might miss hidden corrosion, so what's your rule for water-damaged classics?

That camera survived Katrina, it can survive a little targeted cleaning.

Can it survive a toddler with a marker?
