Rewind Knob Screw Replacement.

Hello all,

I have a Canon AE-1 Program and the little screw attaching the rewind knob (gray bit) to its base (black bit) mysteriously fell out and I was wondering if anyone knows the size of the screw and/or a website I can find a replacement screw for it.

Thank you!

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Here’s the needed part Canon AE-1 Program AL-1 Rewind Knob - Genuine Canon Part You might be able to find the screw alone but its a custom part and a left hand thread to boot! A good camera repair shop may have it, sadly many shops have closed as film camera repair has dwindled.

To help you get it back together review this great vid Quick Fix - Canon AE-1 Program/AL-1: Rewind Knob Assembly
