Einleitung

This guide uses the lens assembly guide to get the camera apart. Once you have finished with the lens assembly, getting to the casing is fairly easy.

Werkzeuge

Schritt 1

Flip the camera upside down and remove six 3mm PH00 Philips screws with a Philips screwdriver.
On the thumb grip, remove the one 4mm PH00 Philips screw.

Schritt 2

With the camera upside down, remove the three 3mm PH00 Philips screws on the left side.
One of the screws are under the HDMI and A/V Out cover.

Schritt 3

On the opposite side of the camera, remove the two 3mm PH00 Philips screws.

Schritt 4

Open the flash and use a plastic opening tool to pop the tab under it as shown.
Now pull the casing apart.
The tripod attachment may fall out on its own, or you will need to pull it out.

Schritt 5

Unplug the two ribbon cables to completely detach the back.

At this stage (or even before unplugging the ribbon cables if you're careful), you can remove the silver screw next to the mode selector, and ease out the button assembly. Having done that, I was able to fix an intermittent shutter release by giving it a blast with switch cleaner.
