A photo flash is a genius invention of mankind, with the help of which it is possible to carry out instant illumination of the subject of photography when photographing. This significantly improves the quality of the photo under certain conditions (dark lighting, shooting against a bright light source, during reportage shooting, etc.). It is not recommended to disassemble the flash on your own (it can simply be an electric shock or you simply damage the structure), but if you are determined and do not want to resort to the services of a service center, then this instruction will do just fine.
Instructions
Step 1
Turn the camera flash head 90 degrees and unscrew the four bolts on the back of the body end (where the nameplate is located). You will need a set of small screwdrivers to complete the entire operation. This will open access to two small latches located to the right and left of the shoe.
Step 2
Gently spread your fingers to the sides of the halves of the case near the removed shoe and press the latches with a special slotted screwdriver. This way you can easily split the case in half. The case is far from disposable and is able to withstand a dozen assemblies and disassembly, but it should be remembered that the high voltage, which is enough to burn through the removal, can last for days.
Step 3
Remove the two screws from the battery compartment (one is under the battery polarity film).
Step 4
It will take some effort to get close to the button control board. You just have to pick out the fake panel covering the control buttons. Draw a sharp knife along the edge of the protective glass and slowly pry it off. It, in turn, is planted on adhesive tape. Take your time to peel it off and get access to the cherished contents of the closed compartment. If the problem is the loss of button control, it is enough to change the contact layer and thus restore the flash operation.
Step 5
The head, in turn, can be disassembled quite simply, and there is nothing except a lamp and a storage capacitor. To do this, simply unscrew the retaining screws with a screwdriver. In any case, as simple as it sounds, first check ten times to see if the flash needs to be disassembled. You may simply not be able to carry out this operation yourself. In this case, it is better to contact a specialist or service center. Also, maybe the flash is still under warranty and needs to be exchanged. But, if everything has already been decided, good luck!
