How to change the port on Olympus PT-EP05L

What is the step by step process to swap the port on my PT-EP05L for a ZEN WA one.

Never done this so a little nervous.

Pictures or youtube would be good.

Thanks,

Hi here is a guide.

The oly port is a little tight but persevere. two people may be req one to hold and one to turn port out. It's pretty simple. You will find zen will slide in a treat.

Thanks for the guide.

The PT-EP05L has the "silly" focus lights at the front and a battery case on the right hand side of the housing.

(If anyone has a spare flat port without these I would be happy to negotiate a price)

I think there are 2 small screws in the battery case but I am not sure if thats all that is involved.

There is a white connector for focus lights on left as u look at port from opening. I just binned off the focus lights straight away. Let us know hoe u get on.

So far so good. Yes bit the bullet, toys arrived this week (port and 9-14 60mm macro on its way) and I got the courage to take the housing apart this morning.

Very scary, the port is very tight, but does turn.

I did remember to unclip the focus lights

After gently cleaning and lubricating the O Rings assemble was quite easy.

In the pool this week to make sure we don't have any leaks then off to Indonesia in December Yes

Good stuff. I found the zen slides into postion a treat. Not so easy with Oly port. Have fun in Indonesia. Off to sharm for a play next week. .

Took the new port, and the 60mm to the pool for a play.

Need to concentrate on strobe placement, easy to get an underexposed picture.
