So, after finally adjusting and cleaning the viewfinder on one of the two GSNs I have, while fastening the screw that holds the ISO nob in place, I noticed it was turning more than it should. Lo and behold, as soon as I take off my tweezers, I see the screw has been cut in half (God knows how, perhaps too much pressure) and now, have the screw is left inside ...
Of course, this doesn't really affect the function of the camera, but it is a fault, and I am wondering if anybody knows if there is a fix for this (other than taking a drill to it to get the screw out) and whether there are repairmen or technicians I can send this to and have it fixed ...
Any information would be appreciated.

I had this problem once. I noticed the broken end of the screw was rough, so I squared off the end of a round toothpick, inserted it into the hole against the broken screw tip, and turned it. With a little persistence, I finally unscrewed the broken end out of the hole.
