This replacement guide will address how to remove a faulty LCD screen from a Sony a7 model number ILCE-7 camera. The LCD screen is an essential part of the camera that allows the user to review pictures or access the settings menu and edit the photography quality settings. Here are the steps for you to replace the LCD screen.
If the camera screen turns black, or the screen is unresponsive to commands, then the LCD screen of the camera may have failed. Before proceeding, it may be helpful to refer to the troubleshooting page, which can help mitigate any easy to remedy problems before going through the LCD screen removal process.
Helpful Hint: The LCD screen is made of glass, therefore it is fragile. Handle it with caution.

this isn’t finished
Hello,
If by “isn’t finished” you mean that the instructions do not contain the steps to put the camera back together, this was done in the hope that the user would follow the steps in a reverse order to put the camera back in one piece.
Best.

I hope you never made a plane like this
Hello there,
Thank you for your constructive comment. The criteria we needed to meet for this project was to provide instruction on iFixit guides for how to remove various parts on the device. We were being evaluated on the content pertaining to our writing and not the technical depth of the guide. Furthermore, we did not have a vested interest in replacing the screen nor did we have another screen to replace it with. In your rush to make a rude comment, you might have missed the end of the guide where it states that in order to reassemble you must follow the steps we provided in the reverse order. Reverse means doing something in the opposite direction.
Regards.
Thanks for the guide.
Thank you! Appreciated the clear instructions.. I have one question is the new screen price range is around 20 to 30$ ? I find it cheap to be true but at the same time I hope it’s 😄
