    • In the second image the top tab is open while the bottom is closed as an example of what the two positions look like.

    • The tab is reversed for the button pad, the tan part is the tab while the black is the connector

Where can I purchase the button assembly for this model? Does this assembly also control the lens function? When I depress the button, sometimes the lens open then closes. Thank you for your wonderful clear instructions.
