honestly, you can throw an EOS1 in a pool and it still works (sort of!!!).
they are VERY well sealed.

the price is another thing, but what is cheaper, a used eos1 or a new m6?
let's get this straight, I prefer my hasselblad, leica and rolleicord way
above my eos3. But there are certain situations where the eos3 is better (I
think).
