A9 - Hotshoe is REALLY loose.

I have had my A9 for 3 months and already the hot shoe is extremely loose, and wobbly. I thought it was the way the flash fit into the hot shoe, but after closer inspection, I could see that the shoe itself was crooked, and thus had come up off the camera body.

  1. Is this an easy fix?
  2. Anyone else having this issue?

I never carry my camera around by the flash, and haven't bumped it into anything. This sucks...

EDIT: There is a recall for loose hot shoes for A9s serial numbers 3370001 - 3381733 -- I'm within that range, so it's a free repair
