First, Screens only interchage on single-digit OM bodies. And they are
user-interchangable. See the eSIF for all the different types available.
You remove them by flipping the little black tab in front of the screen right
under the pentaprism. The rear-hinged frame will then flip down, holding the
screen at about a 45 degree angle.
They came with a little blunt-nosed plier which grabbed hold of the tab on the
screen. I'd dust them with a Dust-Off can-of-air and use a staticmaster before
reinstallation. Don't use solvents.
You might also blow out the inside of the camera and the bottom of the
pentaprism prior to reinstallation. They only go back in one way. Flip the
frame up and it will lock into place.
