DSC-HX60 (weak battery/memory card cover by design or a fault?)

Hi,

I recently purchased the DSC-HX60 and I am excited to start using it. However, I have discovered that the battery cover opens very easily (too easily) - a slight touch or knock of the 'lock' slide and the cover springs open. I have owned lots of point-and shoot digital cameras in the past and all have had firmly locking covers so this issue with the HX60 is a real concern. I don't want to be taking photos only for the battery to fall out onto the floor! Is this a fault with my camera or a potential design fault with this model? I have followed the instructions to the latter and have pushed the lock sliding mechnanism firmly to the 'lock' position. Thanks in advance for any advice/suggestions.
