Introduzione

If your Canon EOS 40D camera’s shutter button is sticking or not working properly, use this guide to replace the shutter button.

A functional shutter button is necessary for any photographer to capture their work. Over time, the shutter button on a camera may become damaged or broken. If you notice your shutter button sticking or it is unable to function, consider replacing it for optimal use of your Canon EOS 40D.

Before using this guide, assess your shutter button for any trapped debris. Shutter buttons often become stuck when dust and grease gets trapped inside. A simple cleaning will oftentimes fix this issue without needing to replace the shutter button.

In order to complete the replacement, the front, back, and top coverings of the camera must be disassembled in order to access the shutter button.

Thanks for these instructions. I've successfully replaced the shutter button assembly on my Canon 50d using this guide.

Thank you for the tutorial. I don’t know how to replace the button. Which glue to use ? Must it scratch the connections on the flex circuit before gluing the new button ?

Tony - Replica

Thanks for this, but this is missing a lot of steps, and you didn't mention the jis #000 in the tools...
