Hi!

On the rear panel the text is almost worn out, its nearly not visible anymore and I´m thinking of exchange it to a new one. I found out that´s it about 80 dollars to buy it. It is 4 visible screws. Has anyone any experience in removing the rear panel?

Best regards

Petter

you can probably buy stickers for a lot less.

Thanks for your help. They seem to only have them in black but either way, it may be hard to sell the camera it may function but doesn´t look that good.

I seem to remember that the panels that had lettering that was wearing off were supposed to repaired/ replaced for free.... but the service tech here does not seem to know anything about it now that my camera is in for servicing.

I had all my panels replaced no charge on two EX1's.

Hey Brian...

What about the camera's faulty battery circuit that drains the battery... or any other 'fixes'?
They guy here in Berlin does not seem to be aware of any of these 'issues'.

Big thanks :)
