A look inside the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX100
Panasonic's LX100 is an ambitious little camera. It steps right over the 1" sensor compact class with a 16MP Four Thirds sensor (though only 12.7MP is truly available), a 24-75mm equiv. F1.7-2.8 lens and 4K video recording. It all added up to a very favorable score and a gold award when we reviewed the camera. Now, thanks to the folks at iFixit, we can take a look at what's inside the LX100 without ever picking up a screwdriver.

Removing the battery is a first and very important step.

After removing plenty of screws from the body of the camera, removing this metal piece from the hotshoe reveals yet another set of screws.

A spudger is the best tool for this job – with all of the screws out of the way the back of the chassis can be pried away from the camera body.

Here's a view of the back panel with the cover out of the way. The motherboard lies just below the buttons seen here.

To get to the motherboard, the LCD needs to be removed. Here, the silver metal backing is pried away with a spudger. A ribbon cable also connects the screen to the rest of the device and is carefully removed.

With the LCD gone, the motherboard and its related ribbon cables are visible.

A couple more screws out of the way and the EVF pops right out. In that housing is an XGA 1024x768 panel.

Next goes the motherboard, which is gently pried back and pulled away from the camera.

Next to go is this copper plate. On the other side we'll find the lens, but only after the next batch of screws is removed.

No fewer than four different sized screws, from 4mm down to 3.1mm are used here.

With the last (well, almost last) screws out of the way the lens casing is free...

...and then the lens can be removed as well.

The top panel is ready to go too...
