NEVER use a phillips driver for ANY japanese camera
its the wrong tool for the wrong screw. these need real JIS drivers. make sure that you get the right one.
The rest (non-japanese) are usually CROSS-POINT screws and are near-identical to JIS ones.
It's easy to identify a phillips. it has notched inner corners.
again, NEVER use phillips drivers for ANY japanese-made camera or lenses.
To be honest while in my thread I referred to Phillips Head drivers I would have no idea whether they are technically PK or Cross Point. In fact I had thought them to be different names for the same driver except that nowadays there are also other variations I have seen that are similar but obviously different from either....... and I must confess that have no idea what they are called either. My set of drivers has probably two dozen different drivers in different sizes and styles. I just select whatever works for each screw and gives a firm fit that will not slip or mar the screw.
