so a while back i bought an old k100d dslr camera so i could reap the benefits of the film-like shooting experience without firing money away on rolls in my p30. But ngl, the experience hasn't been too good. I plan to make the shooting experience more reliable with things like dedicated lithium ion rechargables, and a nicer focusing screen. But one of my concerns is its portability, know ik its silly to buy a dslr expecting it to be portable, but in my defence im very used to 80s film slr bodies which are rlly tiny compared to chunky dslrs. I plan to buy a new compact pancake 40mm lense to help out, however i also want to remove the overhanged space caused by the flash unit. My question is, can i easily just remove this chunk without accidently exposing the pentaprism or something? Oh and how do remove the flash bit so it doesnt interfere? Do i just remove the flash tube and cap off the end of each wires and shove them in the body?
No one is going to be able to answer you because who tf would even attempt this. Buy a camera you actually like without needing to cut pieces off of lmao

>>4385811true, probs should've posted in diyalso nah, i like this camera
>>4385892>making your camera look old than a KP costshuh? no the point of the modding idea is so i can more easily shove it into a coat pocket.
Just smash it off with a rock, it'll be fine. Cover the hole with some electrical tape. Don't use duct tape, it's for ducts.
>>4385894ohyeah fuck it have at it with a dremel tool and cover up the hole with epoxy.
>>4385806Take it apart first to see what you’re cutting into tardotron
>>43858061. look at disassembly guide or stop being a faggot and take apart your camera see theres anything in there2. youre not making it anymore "coat pocketable" by smashing off the flash like a nigger3. learn how to journalist carry instead of ruining your camera. here's how:hang the camera off your left shoulderloosen it until the body is at your hip wear a coat so the camera doesnt slip off it looks like youre not even carrying a camera and it only feels like youre carrying a backback picrel : Im doing it right now[EXIF data available.
