julian Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Does anyone know of a UK outlet where I can get a 1/4" 20 thread count thumb screw. It needs to be approx 9mm long to secure a mounting bracket to the base of my Canon DSLR camera. Need one petty quick rather than wait a month to come from China or pay through the nose to come from the USA!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Bino-viewer Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 found these on eBay : any good ? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1-4-034-INCH-CAMERA-SCREW-TRIPOD-MOUNT-QUICK-RELEASE-HIGH-QUALITY-CAMERA-SCREW-X-2-/170824038534 365 astronomy may be worth a try.....? http://www.365astronomy.com/home.php julian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Graham Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 It's a standard fitting. Any camera shop should sell them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philjay Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Or if you want bespoke, go to a fastener stockists and buy some quarter 20 set screws and cut to length. Far cheaper than camera shops or ebay, I bought a dozen stainless cap heads 50mm for about a pound awhile back julian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
