Summary

Thank you to Samthing_else for making this! I was making a gift for a friend and thank goodness he posted this, or I would've struggled with fusion for a while.

I (think I) improved the model. The following includes said improvements.

Removed need for screw on bottom
Added “bottom retainer” to keep bottom “clipped” to camera body without screw
Minimal improvement to edges and their fit to the camera body

However, the fitment is far from perfect. The cover is slightly too tall. To remedy this, I did the following:

  • Placed cover on my camera with batteries inside
  • Briefly heated the bottom of the battery cover (3-5 seconds, I'd try 3 first. You just need to soften the plastic slightly)
  • Gently press/mold the bottom of the cover to better fit the camera and actually make use of the bottom “tabs” to keep the cover from lifting away from the camera

Additionally, removing the cover is a bit of a pain. I personally found that you have to gently lift the bottom then wiggle the top tab near the top of the camera out to remove the cover. However, it does work!

Somebody, take this and further improve it!
