When repositioning the button from, say, auto to video (or any of the settings) the wheel is hard to move and when I get it to the video it goes right back to auto. I have at times been able to get it to stay on the new setting by really forcing it and it will stay but inevitably during videoing it slips out to auto again.

Would you happen to know what I need to fix it and where to get it from. I have been searching on eBay and have used many combinations of various phrases in my browser search bar, but, every button replacement kit that was ever made comes up, except, for the Z740.

So, could you direct me to a site(s) where I could get one, please ?

Thankyou

Carroll (Mr.)
