Re: Try Contact Cleaner

You may be quite right. Though there's a fair amount of oil, gunk etc. in seawater that distilled water wouldn't clean. They're not really mutually exclusive. In fact, a virtue of the solvent is it will remove residual moisture if used after a water cleaning.  The camera looks like a brick right now, so maybe worth a try, and the spray is handy for other purposes if it doesn't work.
