Turn the camera with the lens facing down.

Opening the camera can be challenging. Don't get discouraged if it takes you a few tries before the camera is opened.

Use the iFixit opening tool to make leverage. Insert the opening tool in the seam where the front case and the back case assemble.

Carefully put pressure on the opening tool so the cover can gradually open.

Slowly slide the opening tool along the gap and around the edge of the camera.

When you are dissembling the back cover, the DC IN A/V OUT DIGITAL cover will also disassemble and fall off.
