Well, the lens isn't the camera. And camera failure won't be related  
to lens condensation; lenses are rated as watersealed or not, separate  
from the body. We're talking about camera body failure due to camera  
body exposure to rain, mist, or fog, short of actual submersion in  
water. The 5D Mark II was listed as being a sealed body, which is for  
exactly such "damp but not submerged" conditions. But it sounds as  
though that may not be the case, which is well worth knowing...
