This quick guide will take you through the steps of replacing the spring loaded cover for the

compromised your battery can be lost and take water damage.

INTRODUCTION

In this guide, I'll show you how to replace the battery compartment cover for the Panasonic Lumix

DMC-ZS8 camera. In order to do this, you will need a small Phillips head screwdriver that fits into

the screws in the bottom of the camera. You will also need a needle or small pin, along with small

needle-nose pliers or a similar tool to help. Once you have that, along with your replacement cover,

it's a pretty easy and straightforward process!
