VIXIX HF-W11 Water Damage

I've got a Canon VIXIA HF-W11 that sustained water damage due to the interface connector/SD Card door not being secured properly. I dried it off the best I could, it's been almost a week since the exposure and the camera still doesn't function.

What are my options? Can I remedy the situation myself and get it working again, send it in for repair or do I need to replace it?

Most places won't repair water damaged equipment, since they can't guarantee it. You will have to replace it.

Thanks for the response! Any way to get the videos from the internal camera-memory if it doesn't power-up?
