Einleitung

In order to interface with the camera and access its functions, it is important to have a working LCD screen. If your LCD screen has problems such as distortion and flickering, it may be damaged and in need of replacement. This guide will walk you through disassembling the camera and removing the LCD screen; avoid tearing the flat ribbon cables exposed in the process. When removing the screen from the plastic frame, you will break the adhesive attaching it. If desired, you may reglue the replacement screen to the frame with any super glue or epoxy. This guide requires JIS 00 and 000 screwdrivers, opening tools, a spudger, and tweezers.
