Loose Grip??

[AVITWeb]

Anyone else have a slightly loos hand grip on their S2??? With the batteries in its got quite a creek, and I can feel it moving a little bit.

Have you tried to tighten all the screws?

I started to, but screwdriver is alittle bit..I need to get a smaller one. BUt the screws did not seem to want to turn any more.

It all comes apart, i took mine apart and took the grip off and painted it (S2 on the left) with a rubber laytex paint.

One thing i noticed is the little sand paper section in the front where your finger tips touch is like grip tape. I think it can peen off. Is that what your talking about?

Sorry for the long delay, and thank you for the responses!
Acutally it is that part "the grip tape) and the panel that is right next to that on the grip. Just near the door for SD card. It seems the whole thing is slightly loose. I have tried to tighten the screws, but they will go no further...I am just hoping the thing isn't going to crap out on me during out upcoming vacation (2 weeks and couting!)

Thanks for the responses....Any suggestions?

Mine does that too, and it has since the start. Its worse if the weather is warm, or if I make it warm by holding it for a long time.... I don't think its a problem....

Mine was a little loose as well...especially on the inside of the grip...there was a little too much "give"...

Its not hard to take the front off. I mean if i can do it you guys should be able to.
