Re: Vintage film cameras
There was an old Vivitar flash in with the Minolta stuff I bought last week. I had to take a hammer and screwdriver to chisel the battery compartment cover off. Never seen anything so bad before and wish I'd taken a photo. 4 batteries all crystallised and fused together in a block, Once I'd prised them out with needlenose pliers, I saw they were Duracells with a 1994 expiry date. I don't know if I can be bothered attempting to clean it out.
