| Jul 7, 2019 at 14:17 | comment | added | xenoid | As @Hueco suggests, the most fragile thing in the camera is likely the rubber cover of the ports. And once it is broken, ports will be very exposed to damage (water, dirt...)), so you may end up with a half-functional camera faster this way. Like Hueco, my two Canon cameras still have working camera and SD card slots. | |
