just back from a great week at the Outer Banks, NC. Had a blast taking pictures on my NEX 5n, even down standing in surf.. after returning, now I worry if salt invaded my camera. any suggestions re: how to clean out camera totally are most welcome

Unless camera actually got splashed, mist from the waves is a low risk of doing harm.

If unsure, take the body to a good camera repair and have them check it for corrosion and clean it thoroughly.

If you develop performance issues - immediately get it serviced

I shoot underwater and this is from my lessons learned ...
