GRRRRR so I went to put down the camera with the AF-540 attached but apparently not locked in. I was moving toward the table and caught the strap on the edge and the camera jerked back and flash head weight caused the bottom of the hot shoe to snap :-( Lucky for me I only need a few more quick pictures and with some effort I could get the connection made to send the flash.

Question, does anyone know of a repair place that would replace the shoe? Or is this something I can do? I see the 4 screws but what is involved under the hood?
Looks like I need to rent or try and borrow one for my trip to Vegas next week.
Thanks for any help
