Introduction

After removing the LCD screen, you will be prompted to remove screws and metal plates within the camera.

What you need

After removing the battery, unscrew the four 3.10mm screws on the side opposite the buttons.

Gently wedge the flat end of the spudger between the back case and the wrist-strap mount.
The wrist-strap mount is the thin metal piece on the side of the camera. Your camera may have the wrist-strap attached, but you will not need to remove it to continue.
Carefully pry the back case away from the camera and then gently lift it off.

Having removed the back case, the LCD screen should be sitting loosely on the camera, attached only by a wide ribbon and a narrow ribbon.
The ribbons are connected to and held in place by small plastic latches.
To remove the wide ribbon, gently pry the spudger underneath the black plastic latch where the ribbon connects and lift up. The ribbon should slide out easily.
Repeat the same process with the smaller ribbon, this time looking for a light blue latch.

After removing the LCD screen, unscrew the four 3.8mm screws that hold down the metal plate
Unscrew the 2.5mm screw next to the wrist-strap mount.

Position the camera with the lens facing down and the shutter button facing you.
Lift the metal plate away from the camera without removing it fully. There is a ribbon attaching the edge of the plate to the camera.
The ribbon is being held in place by a black latch.
Carefully pry the spudger under the black latch and lift gently upward. The ribbon will slide out easily.
With the ribbon unlatched, the entire metal plate should now be detached.

There is a ribbon to the bottom left of the silver plate. It is being held in place by a black latch.
Pry the spudger under the black latch and lift gently. The ribbon will release easily.
There is a loop of tape to the bottom right of the silver plate.
Slide the tip of the spudger inside the loop of tape and pry upward while removing the yellow plate with your other hand.

Remove all six 3.5mm screws from the silver plate.
Lift up on the silver plate to remove.
Note: When reassembling, pay careful attention to the circled screw locations.
