G40 unstable battery connection

Hi all,

Does anyone have a quick fix for the battery connection or is it strictly a repair item? When power is on, the slighted lift or bump on the battery shuts down the camera down.

Greetings,

If your battery (when mounted) is not secure, jiggles or has play, etc. the mount or battery itself is damaged. 

 

Check that the little tabs on the battery are not missing or broken.  If they aren't, inspect the retention mechanism on the camera.  One or the other likely needs service or replacement.
