Nikon Battery Door Cover Removal

[@jdelarosa89]

I come back to this video every now and again. Thanks!

[@BillMaynard-we8hk]

My pleasure, I was swapping out fairly regularly so I am glad it helped.

[@mirastudio4204]

The only video that worked for me. So it leaves without any force. Advice for everynody: If you feel you need any force, you are doing wrong. If doing right, it almost falls by itself. Thank you man!

[@Coolwildlife1]

You’re welcome, glad it helped you. I was so afraid of breaking it off at first.

[@Coolwildlife1]

Glad it helped

[@musiclessons101Max]

I ordered a new battery door cover after not finding mine, but after watching the part in your video where the old one was in the battery grip, I looked and there it was!....lol Well, now I have and extra battery door cover. It snapped back on perfectly...Thanks!

[@BillMaynard-we8hk]

Too funny, that's the only way I'd ever find it as well so I'm glad Nikon thought of that piece of the puzzle.

[@patrickpower3992]

I had accidentally broken a tab on my battery cover when the camera fell off a table or something with the door open, and I received a replacement door from Nikon, but have been leery ever since about trying to attach the new door, afraid of breaking one of the tabs. Watching your removal instructions gave me the confidence to apply just enough pressure to get the top tab to slip into place, so thanks!

[@Coolwildlife1]

Glad it helped, I was nervous the first time I tried it as well, the tabs seem so fragile.

[@RobertKingofMaine]

I laughed with you gave the finger LOL. It worked according to you instructions. Subscribed

[@Coolwildlife1]

Glad it worked out for you

[@JPNE86]

Thanks for making this. Probably the 4th time I have watched this so please don't delete. It is super helpful for something that I don't frequently remove. By the way it works equally well for the Nikon Z8 and the MB-N12 Power Battery Pack.

[@BillMaynard-we8hk]

Great, glad it helps and thanks for letting us know about the Z8 being the same.

[@lawrencetheentertainer]

Thank You Thank you Thank you as my new grip came in and I continuously questioned myself saying it's not brain surgery but take a mulligan on this one and ask.....you popped up first and fixed it with ease!! I have now officially subscribed. Again thank you.....

[@splashpurplemedia]

Thank you so much! It’s important to note that anyone trying this should hold the camera the way he is holding it. Makes it easier.

[@billmaynard8628]

Thanks for that comment, sometimes the obvious is a missed step.

[@TrustintheLord1975]

Absolutely AWESOME tutorial. Great job explaining this since the manual is IFy at best. 👍

[@Coolwildlife1]

I had the same issue, glad the explanation helped you.

[@martijngroenendijk3146]

Great video helped a lot. Many many thx!!!!

[@Coolwildlife1]

I'm glad it helped, I was really afraid of snapping it off the first time.

[@Quebecoisegal]

I needed to remove my battery grip but couldn't find the cameras battery door latch anywhere, then I looked at your video and about putting the latch somewhere safe, eureka it was in the battery grip, phew, thanks!

[@Coolwildlife1]

Happy it helped you out.

[@theeclecticphotographerajr5372]

thank you so much, just got my gripped on! I think am gonna order an extra door just in case i break it?

[@Coolwildlife1]

You should be fine, but I'd hate to be on a trip and have it break so no downside to having a spare

[@lidge1994]

The feeling of not wanting to break it but knowing it's just about to detach is horrible! Finally just went for it and heard a snap...it's just the plastic sliding out, loud but not damaging, thankfully!

[@shooterscott]

Thank you! I was so worried I’d break it.

[@probodymedia]

Muito obrigado! 🙏

[@BillMaynard-we8hk]

Glad to know it helped you.

[@erichjager7996]

Wow what a hassle, now thinking should get some extra doors. What happened to Nihonjin practicality and or ease of use? They had the same door for decades it seems.

[@JudyArzt]

how do you put the battery cover back on

[@BillMaynard-we8hk]

Hi Judy, it's been a few years since I've held a Z6II or Z7II in my hands so I apologize if I can't be as exact as I might have been. If memory serves me you would reverse the removal instruction so the first pin I pulled out when taking the cover off would be the last to go in when placing it back on. The first pin should line up to the hole/indent and then the second one will snap into place. Maintain that 45 degree angle the same as the removal. Lew me know how you make out, it may help others as well.

THX my friend. That was the information, that i needed :-) Best greetings from a small Town near Hamburg in Germany. Abonemended and Thums up!

You’re welcome, it’s easy once you know how, but scary when you don’t😁

Hi Barry, I wasn’t sure what you meant?

[@jeanginomiele7690]

@@Coolwildlife1 He meant it would have been helpful to see it closer up. I felt that way, too.

Funny guy, thanks and it helped me

@@Coolwildlife1 Do you use a Z6?

[@chuckconnors8688]

Wow are the thousands of how to videos that had to have been the worst

[@Coolwildlife1]

Just trying to help folks out given it was an issue for me.

[@luissolivan]

Great thanks but mine is simply not coming off. So frustrating because I know if I pull any harder im gonna break one of the tips that holds it in place. I even called Nikon and it's not happening. I'm feeling very stupid...

[@TzsahallThomas-x6u]

Thanks ayh.

@@Coolwildlife1dude,I bought another Z6ii and came back for this video. I realized I haven’t watched the whole video. I put my old battery door in some drawer. SMDH. Thank you one more time. Now I put both doors where they should be. 😂

You could have explained that in 30 seconds 🙄
