    • Be careful not to break any of the retaining clips as you pry up this panel.

    • An image from the Service Manual has been added, which shows this side cover should be slid down before being removed, not just pried up as shown in the first picture in this step.

    Pull the panel down there are 2 clips in the midtle be carefull not to brake them

    Just prying doesn't do it. there are some clips which are really easy to break!

    I think it needs to be slided down!

    andreas -

    It is not clips but "hook" so to the mouvement should be at opposite direction on flash

    Olivier Lempereur -

    I inserted an opening pick under the lower part of the panel (where it was loosest; at the left of the photo) and then inserted a jimmy along one side (at the top of the photo). Then I pushed the panel down from the top (at the right in the photo) and it popped off.

can i follow the same instruction for SONY DSC HX 10V .as both looks identical . when i shake my camera sound comes as if some parts are loosen but when i switched on my camera and the lens comes out that sound goes off . should i care for it or not ?

bikashlakra -

Thank you! Useful instructions.

Step 5 - perhaps a little more accurate step would be to lift up the bottom of the panel and then slide the panel downward. (reinstall in reverse direction).

I am having trouble orienting the control wheel - I tried to seat the middle button so it clicks and then set down the wheel on top but that does not seem to work after putting the back cover on. I’ve reopened and tried many times. Any suggestions on how to orient or reinstall the control wheel.
