Introduction

The screen is a vital part of the camera, it shows a preview of images and allows easy access to them. A faulty or damaged screen greatly hinders the usability of the camera. A simple repair such as this can extend the life of the camera to be used again or repurposed.

Before starting the repair, test your camera to see if it still turns on with a new pair of batteries to make sure that the screen is the only fix needed.
