Before starting your project be sure to remove the 2 AA internal
batteries and the Media Card.

Remove all 4 screws from the camera case. Be sure to
place the screws in a safe place while modifying the
camera.

Remove screws 1,and 2 from the bottom of the camera case.

Remove screw 3 from under the USB connector door.

Carefully remove the back of the camera case from
the camera exposing the interior electronics. Next,
remove the front of the camera case. This is a little
harder to remove, but take your time and unsnap all

handle this too hard or damage the ribbon cable.
