Thanks for your suggestions people! I've included a few high-resolution scans of the screws against a rule. It olooks like they are 5 millimetre in length about one millimetre thick. I've done a Google search for screws in this range but am not having a ton of luck.

I bought a Off Shoe Apter F and Off Camera Shoe Adapter F recently and they are missing a few screws.
Does anyone know how I could figure out how I could determine the screw size or obtain replacements.
Thank you in advance for any assistance. :)

Thanks, Chris.
Do you happen to know what that cord is called? I can't seem to find it anywhere online. ---------- Post added 02-06-18 at 06:27 PM ----------
Thanks for that information. I don't think I'm set up to do those upgrades to the battery pack but I have no issue using alkaline batteries so I should be fine with this item if I can locate the darn plug.

I just bought a TR Power Pack-2 to use this with my AF-540 flash unit.
The AF-540 manual says that it can't used with the Power Pack-2 for "mechanical reasons." However, some blogger says that the Power Pack 3 (which can be used with the AF-540) uses the same power connector as the Power Pack 2. Furthermore, they determined that the Power Pack 2 can, in fact, work with the AF-540.
My only questions are: what cord should I use and where might I find it.
I notice that the flash unit has a spot for a power connector as well as a five-pin connector. Could I use the five pin connector cord (example) as pictured in one of the attached photos to connect to the Power Pack 2 or would I have to use the power cord that's pictured in the Power Pack 2 instruction manual?
Thanks in advance for any and all advice.

That seems like an obvious and easy solution that never would have occurred to me. Thanks for that.
I take cemetery photos and I want to synch GPS data (recorded on my Vaio UX GPS receiver) with my photos' date and time stamp using a program called GeoSetter.
I suppose if I stand on each grave for a certain amount of time the recording should be fairly accurate with a certain window.

I'd like my K20D to have the same time and date as my computer but it's tricky to do that manually.
Is it possible to do this with any of the Pentax or third-party software?
Thanks!
