Description

On the analog Canon EOS series, the small latch hook of the back door breaks with age, and the camera can no longer be closed. With this spare part, you can get your EOS ready for use again. The linked video shows the installation step by step: unscrew the base plate, the front cover at the lens mount and the hinge cover, remove the broken hook, fit the copper contacts onto the new hook, attach the spring to the pin of the new hook and set the hook into its guide. The pin is a small screw and is already fitted in the hook. A small Phillips screwdriver is all the tooling you need, and tweezers help when attaching the spring. Since it is a small part, two pieces are included.

    Many thanks for producing a part which is now obsolete. Unfortunately when the defective part is removed from the camara, it is difficult to install. The metalic contact piece was not easy to seperate nor to reinstall on the new part. The 2 plastic studs are to big to clic it on, so I had to use Superglue. I hope the glue will hold for 27 years like the camara's orginal part, but I dought it. However, I fitted it and it works and I have a spare red one.RegardsJohn

    Easy to fit. I did have to apply some glue to the contacts but easy enough to do. Not to be done in a rush and keep silver and black screws in separate containers

After a purchase we ask for a review by email. New reviews appear automatically; we read them afterwards and never remove one because of its star rating. “Verified purchase” means the review came through the review link of an order in our shop. “Verified” marks older reviews that our previous review service, Judge.me, had labelled as verified. Reviews imported from Amazon are labelled and not included in the average. How we collect and check reviews
