I have a Swann ADW-410 Digital Wireless Security Camera. And on the Motherboard where the black arrow is pointing was the power positive and negative leads. I am not quite sure which one is positive and which one is the negative. Also.. to the left of the positive and negative (J6), The (C75) Capacitor came off. it was one of the 100 16V VT like the ones a little down and to the left from where the C75 capacitor should be. Im looking to replace it but i don't have that exact one. Wondering if any one of the capacitors from this thumbnail picture will do the job or do i need to get the exact same one that fell off? capacitors.jpg Any Help would be appreciated.Circutboard.jpg

doesn't seem to go through the board
The reason I had asked about the reverse side was to try and determine polarity. Is that a little "+" sign smashed between the outline of the capacitor and J6?

Comparing the other capacitors, it looks as if the shaded area is negative and the chamfered area is positive.

will one of those other capacitors in the first thumbnail picture work? or does it need to be exactly the same one that came off?

You have several 100μF 16V. It is worth a try but will they fit in?
There is no information on ESR.
Some hot melt glue could be used to take the weight if you are going to bump it about.
