Our garage caught on fire and burned down along with part of out home. The clean-up contractor tells us there are indications that the rooms that did not burn have indications of temperatures exceeding 1200°. The heat and smoke damage is insane. What did not burn has been damaged by heat and smoke. Basically they have declared most of what is in our home to be non-salvageable.

I have a Nikon D7200 with 18-140mm lens attached, which was on the tripod in my home office. I keep my lenses in a camera back pack, but it was unzipped and open. I e-mailed Nikon to find out what the likelihood of them being good after this fire would be and received a reply telling me what to do to send it to them for service. So, I am wondering if anybody here has had any experience with this type of issue? I

If my camera and lenses are non-salvageable then so be it and I'll have to replace them, but I'd like to know the likelihood of them being salvageable. Any help would be appreciated - if you have some real knowledge on the subject.
