    Check with camera repair shops that have been in business a while. Wings camera in Atlanta had a box of tiny screws that helped me fix the cable release part of a shutter.
    The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

    When I needed some small English (BA) thread screws for my M.P.P. I found a model railway supplier in the UK. However, I did know what I was looking for - and still had to hunt around for the right size.

    This really is the easiest and cheapest way. The problem is no matter how many camera parts you seem to be having lying around it's never the right one for what you need at that moment. Although my parts bin has bailed me out of a jam once or twice.
