The connection between my 580EX2 and 1Dmk2n is lose. Is there a way to adjust the rubber fitting on the flash to make this connection more solid?

Thanks!

Is it the flash or the hot shoe on the camera?

There are some screws under a plate on the hotshoe on the camera that can come "lose".

The hot shoe on the camera is solid as a rock. So it's the flash's fault.
