The flash will not open as the body is slightly bent. How can I open it and try a repair? Am I likely to damage the camera when I do this? The camera works just the flash doesn’t.
Is this a good question?

Your best bet (as with many compact camera repairs) is probably to find another one of the same model on eBay, advertised as “spares or repair” but with a body in reasonably good condition. They generally go pretty cheaply. Practice disassembly on that then you should be able to swap out the damaged parts on your own camera.
A quick Google search gave me a few disassembly videos for that model but not a disassembly guide, though you can find a service manual at

(Be sure to use the inconspicuous download link below the service manual preview, not the large download button which will only give you unwanted software.)
