Step 9 — Remove flat cable linking the camera's body to the back casing

Locate the connector which holds the flat cable to the main circuit board. Unlock the connector bygently pulling up its black piece from the side the flat cable comes into it.

Pull the flat cable from the connector and you'll have completely removed the back casing from thecamera.

Note I taped each of the screws to their original places on the removed back casing, so I don'tloose or mix any of them.
