    Many steps were left out here in this tutorial, especially removing the broken LCD display from its metal case. Try YouTube German video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNx2ylpj... from http://www.kamera-station.de. This video shows the complete disassembly and reassembly process, although it's in German. You can at least see the process by pausing and replaying the video. I could not find an English video. Richard Taylor, Elizabeth City, NC, 10/22/2016.
