I would suggest you to open all the lids covering the ports and let the device dry up.Check for the water markers beneath the lids,what colour are those?

Wait what do you mean what colour it is, and are sure this will help it because the camera keeps on turning on like every 2-5 minutes.

There are some water markers beneath the lids.If those are red,water has entered your device.

yes with PCC, upload some picture samples to box or dropbox and post them here, also check if there are any scratches on the lens, and is the flash on or off?
