Step 7 - Flash Module
Caution: this camera houses a very strong capacitor (the black cylinder). Avoid touching anything around the two wires coming out of the top. Doing so will risk serious electric shock. Carefully disengage the internal components from the casing by lifting at the bottom end and giving a gentle tug. The components are still connected to the casing via cables, but they are much more maneuverable. The flash module is shown on the right hand side.

Step 8
