Place the camera on the side opposite of the wrist strap handle.

Then begin to pry the casing apart with both hands by applying pressure to the top and bottom of the camera.

Remove the small metal plate underneath the plastic covering and set aside. (It should be loosely attached)

Note: A rubber foam washer that separates the lens from the casing will fall off when the case is removed. Be sure to store it safely.

Note: When reassembling ensure the back plate screw tabs are over the wrist strap attachment and the front plate screw tabs go under orange casing.
