stick it in a drawer or large plastic tub with some open baking soda or a while; that 'll take care of it.My used Cambo I bought while living in Japan smelt of mildew and cigarettes. I stuck it in the sun, and it took care of the mildew smell, but not the cigarette smell. In fact, 24 years later, it still smells a bit like an ashtray...

one or two weeks inside a box with an open tray of baking soda takes care of most of it.I have an excellent GL690 that has a slight aroma of cigarettes and no amount of sunshine or "Car & Truck Fresh" granules
have cleaned up the odors , possibly I'll try the granules for a few weeks and see if that's effective . Good luck and let us
know if you find something that actually works for you . Peter

I have my Hasselblad sitting next to my Mamiya that has a musty smell (from Japan). I’d leave my Mamiya out in our south facing bay windows but then it would be covered in cat hair and/or pushed off onto the floor by said cats. I like the bin with baking soda or damp rid idea.
Take it outside and use it. A lot.I just purchased a nice Hasselblad body and back from a seller in Japan. Both are in really nice condition and arrived super fast. However, there is a slight musty smell, especially inside the back. Any thoughts on how to eliminate this?
