980 0 #1 April 5, 2006 Now that I have your attention. I am missing a few of those annoying little screws, that loosen frequently, from my SONY DCR-PC105. I called the nearest SONY service centre and they want $5 each. This is either a M1.4 x 1.4 or a M1.7 according to the guy at the service centre. Does anyone know of a source with REASONABLE pricing for these screws? I recall seeing someone post in here who said the worked for SONY, but couldn’t find them with the search function. I’d like to hear from them. Thank you! Sam Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The111 1 #4 April 5, 2006 I am not sure what "M1.4 x 1.4" is, but here are some similarly priced (though slightly cheaper) M1.4 variants on microfasteners.com. The price is not necessarily unreasonable. I doubt it's cheap to make a screw that tiny and precise.www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LukeH 0 #5 April 5, 2006 In the developed world we use the metric system. M1.4 would be a thread diameter of 1.4 millimeters, the other measurement (in this case also 1.4) would be the thread length. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
980 0 #6 April 5, 2006 M1.4 is the metric thread size x 1.4 means it is 1.4mm long it is a countersunk phillips head screw and if I'm paying $5 for a fastener it had better be very special, like Titanium-special and these are not... Luke - you're a dirty bastard for posting that while I wrote this! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
