The reason why fungus grows on a lens is because it can utilize the lens coating for food. This may or may not be possible with fungus inside the body but I would be more concerned with corrosion inside the body with all that condensation. Especially with circuit boards and current from the battery.


It might be a good idea to contact Canon and see what they would recommend and how much it would cost.
