This camera was my sister’s, LCD shattered, probably from dropping it. Also the lens might have been stuck, but I easily got it back on track after opening it up. Quick fix, just order a new LCD from ebay for about $20, swap it out and that’s it. Tearing it apart is pretty self explanatory, you just remove the screws around the perimeter and pull it apart, be careful of the capacitor inside which is used for the flash, that can be charged around 300volts and give a nasty shock.
My bamboo table I made, haha. The multimeter used to check if the flash electrolytic capacitor is charged.

Image sensor has conductive traces that are thicker than others, which makes that pin that came out no big deal.

I kind of broke the connector to the image sensor, but it still worked.
