After removing the seven screws in step five, the rear panel of the camera is ready to be removed.

Gently rock the rear panel until it feels loose

Starting from the bottom of the camera, lift the rear panel and hinge it towards the top of the camera. Once you reach a 45 degree angle, the top tabs should release and the rear panel will lift off freely.

Remove the camera's rear panel and set it aside. The LCD display and the control board are now exposed.
