Take your camera to a hardware store, auto parts, engineering shop, etc and
see if you can find a thick plastic (nylon) washer that fits tightly.
Good luck!

Best is a coin - I'd say a 10cent piece, but that'll possibly
mean nothing to you. For those who don't want to scratch their
camera in the slightest, I recall seeing someone post here about
an auction selling plastic ones, but for yourself, you're probably
just after the right size coin (drill a hole in it or find the
right size dog tag, and you can attach it to your keyring or
possibly your camera strap).
Sorry, I can only help you with the easy questions. I'll let
the others handle your other questions :-)
Cheers
