Can anyone tell me the polarity of the A/C adapter jack on the Toshiba
PDR-M700 digital camera? Just says "DC IN 5V". Thanks.
 
You could try sticking pins in the adapter end and measuring the voltage
from the cable with a meter. that should tell you which is +, unless, of
course, the oem adaper is dead?

I don't have an adapter. I have some 5-volt DC power supplies, but don't
want to plug one into this camera until I know the correct polarity.

Thanks for the reply.

Turns out the center conductor is positive. It finally occurred to me to
check for common grounds between the power jack and other jacks,
and that answered the question.
