My Camera Won't Turn On: What to Check

[Madwld19]

Went to use my camera today after not using it in a few days. I had shot with it over the weekend and it worked fine. I shut it off, left it on a table in my room, and then today I pick it up and it won't turn on, even when it's connected to the AC adapter. I tried some troubleshooting tips, but nothing's working. What's going on? PLEASE HELP.

Was it recently exposed to extreme temperature conditions, harsh elements?
If it isn't an external factor like dead battery, exposure to harsh elements, even the simple standby switch, and you've done the recommended trouble shooting; I’m stumped.
If you have the time, I would check on the camcorderinfo.com boards, to see if maybe anyone else who uses the same camera encounters the same problems.
Regardless, if it remains inactive as a result of internal malfunctioning, then I can only suggest sending it off to the manufacturer.

Some moisture got into the camera a few weeks ago, and the vision was a bit blurred as a result. It dried off in a few hours and was working fine again for the next week and a half. Now it's not working at all...
