Video of my car's exhaust almost broke the camera!
after taking my car out for a spirited drive today I shot video of the exhaust revs--the camera's lens fogs up (I think) after each rev.
I thought it was amusing--maybe the pressure from the exhaust pushed on the camera, I don't know--this car is ridonk-u-lus

Thanks guys--it's actually very dirty (for me)
and it looks like we'll have temps above freezing on Saturday so it will get a final wash and wax for the season.
I usually have my cars garaged at this point, but we haven't had any snow yet and this car is so damn fun to drive

Exhaust fumes are hot, when the heat hits the cold air, water vapor is formed, that is probably what your seeing as fog on the camera lens,

Yeah, for the most part, most electronic devices these days can take a little bit of surface moisture. Although, prolonged exposure, as well as water vapor mixed with exhaust fumes would more likely cause corrosion on the electronics then damage any lens (unless the lens is plastic, then your more then likely to melt it with the exhaust..)
