I Replaced My Broken LCD Screen

I replaced the LCD screen in my camera today.

I learned a couple of things.

Consider wearing a cotton or latex glove on the hand that holds the camera body as you work.
This will help you not to make any connections with your hands.

I mentioned the possibility of being shocked in my previous broken camera post.  

Cameras hold quite a charge.  Be sure to respect them.

Using the safe plastic pry tool that comes with most replacement screens is wise.

Along the top left edge of this particular model there is a contact that if touched, either with your hands or a metal tool, will give you a good jolt. 

(Even with the batteries out this holds a charge.)
A shock will result in numb fingers and

shaky hands or worse after you touch the wrong thing in your camera. 
Don't even ask why I know.  :o)

Look around and maybe you'll be lucky enough to find a video for your camera.

I found this one.  Thankfully my camera is a simple model.

Disclaimer:  Attempt at your own risk.  Opening your camera could result in severe electric shock.  It could also result in the destruction of your camera.
