Hot shoe replacement??
Hello,
I have an FX1 and somehow after a shoot my hotshoe mount is no longer there.. I just have the threaded hole.. I tried going to my local authorized Sony Camera shop, but for some reason they could not come up with a replacement.. Any suggestions for a replacement?? I have not yet tried a nationel Sony #, .. Maybe a third party replacmentout there??? Anything like that out there?? Thanks, Mike M. |
I found it here on the Sony Parts website:
http://servicesales.sel.sony.com/web...searchText=fx1 If the long link doesn't work, go to: http://servicesales.sel.sony.com/ search for "FX1" at the top right, then click on the fifth result: " HDRFX1 HIGH DEFINITION CAMCORDER " You'll see a list of available parts, one of which is the shoe mount. 77 bucks! Ouch! Hope this helps, Vito |

This is the only thing that look like it will work. I ordered it, I will report on it when it arrives.

Looks like you may be able to remove that screw and take the shoe off the mount, and then replace the screw with the same size that the sony has to attach it. |

BTW, it's not as big as it seems on the picture. It looks a 5 point buck antler on the picture. |
Hey Norman,
So thats a thumbs up for this piece??Sounds like it.. Thanks, Mike Moncrief |
I just got it yesterday and made the modifications, but yes, it seems like it's exactly what I needed.
