Re: G3X lens hood stuck on the filter adapter

I've consulted the instruction manual P171-172, (after the event) which makes what should be a simple operation quite obtuse!  The overseas supplier has kindly offered to send another.  I've replied that if they want to just send the FA-DC67B filter adapter ring, I could cut through the existing one with a pair of side cutters and attach the lens hood the correct way.  I'll probably then buy a 62mm rubber lens hood to attach to the adapter ring and make life a whole lot simpler!  Watch this space.
