Introduction

Your camera is a marvel of modern technology but a tiny rock or a stick can ruin it all. Don't let that happen to you. This viewfinder window is there to protect the more delicate optics behind the cover and is designed to take the hit so the more expensive pieces do not become damaged. Use this guide to replace this piece if you have damaged it accidently. If you damaged it on purpose... well... ok it is your camera whatever floats your boat man; you can still use this guide to replace the part however.

    • Find the rubber viewfinder cover on the upper rear of the camera, above the view screen.

  2. fcqZcoYgLbNI2lYj
    • Slide the rubber piece off.

    • There may be a slight popping sound.

  3. iHwYJjmaYDwFRWgl
    • Once the rubber piece has been removed, inspect the area.

    • If everything looks fine, go ahead and slide the new rubber piece on the same way the old piece was slipped off.

    • To reinsert the window, push inward and slightly forward. There is a tab on the camera that the window must catch on in order to be put into place.
