Just a reminder I assume no responsibility to any damage that can occur when this modification 
is attempt

 (Also a

s always modification of commercial products is done at your own risk. Use 

extreme caution since high voltage exists within these units 

                     

 

The first thing I will do with either camera is power it on. It is good now before we start to 
shutter a few pictures and to double check the cameras operation and focus. Take the batteries 
out with camera on leaving the shutter cover open this way we can disable the shutter motor to 
silence the camera. 

                                       

 

 
                                        To open the camera 4 screws must be removed
