Okay, so it's not so much loose as it is completely missing. One of my umbrella swivels had a little screw in it to keep the flash in place when mounted on there- but it's now missing. I was wondering if anyone knows of someplace where I could purchase a replacement screw or if I actually have to replace the entire swivel (which seems ridiculous for a little screw- but I don't feel secure just sort of balancing my flash in place).

Since I'm not sure if the screw has some specific name, I'm having a hard time searching for such a thing. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

This is what it looks like:

it's the tiny silver screw at the top that I'm missing. :/

Fixed Link Try a hardware store. ETA: Print that photo and take the photo and the swivel to the hardware store I would think a hex bolt would probably work if you can find the right thread.

Thank you, I appreciate it! That's definitely worth a try. :)
