Oops, almost cooked it!

I baked my ST7's Disiccant Plug yesterday, leftit going in the oven while I went out. Just before I was leaving I smelt something odd. After suspecting the laptop I wentto the kitchen, opened the oven and o-oh! I'd left the o-ring on the desiccant plug!!

Luckily the oven hadn't fully warmed up and the o-ring seems fine, as does the desiccant plug

Close call! Wouldn't like to destroy the desiccant plug

Only the big seal Gary not the plug seal and I wouldn't recommend putting your camera in the oven with the seal still in.
