The small plastic piece that holds the microphone onto the viewfinder of my S270 is very near breaking point and the mic has a habit of falling off at inconvenient times. It is easy to replace the part (two small screws) but does anyone know where I can buy one? I'm in the UK.

Not sure you could try Creative Video but be warned I want a replacement shoe mount for the MRC1K and they wanted £170+VAT!!!!!!

At those prices I think I'll use gaffer tape to hold the mic on!

Finally managed to get the small plastic part at a cost of £9, via excellent repairer Clyde Cunningham, who had sorted out the headphone jack issue on my Z7.
