Cleaning Battery Corrosion from a Camera

This video will show you how to clean battery corrosion from a camera using white vinegar, q-tips, and sandpaper.

I'm kind of concerned that the cap ended up back on the bottle. I would think that unless you were careful to use a fresh q-tip every time you dipped it, that the cap would be contaminated. What of someone used that vinegar in food after that? Other than that, great video. I recommend emery paper.

I was just about to put an order for a new flash. I had tried some other methods in other videos, but tried to give yours a try for the last time. And my flash (Nikon SB 700 ) came back to life. Its battery compartment makes it very hard to reach and clean. But this method was the right medicine. Thank you so much for sharing this.
