Re: Lens removal

I had issues with lens from day one.  first time I used it it fell off as I had not rotated quite enough.

I had issues removing some time ago but it finally released.

This time it is like it was welded to mount. I think the pins are bent.

I have another gx7 body that is parts only. I will examine to see the possible solution.

As lens works really well, i will just leave it until I can afford to have it professionally removed.

Removing may require cutting into lens to release pins. As it is a really cheap lens no big loss.

Thanks for your assistance.
