The adapter I have was very tight at first. I removed the assembly from the camera and had to use a considerable amount of force to get it to come off the first lens I put it on. Just MAKE SURE the small release pin on the side is pulled back (to release the locking pin) before trying to rotate the adapter when removing it. Be careful not to damage your lens. Best of luck.

As I recall, there is a piece on the lens that has to unscrew and be removed before the lens hood will attach.

The manual says: "Insert a small flat-bladed screwdriver into the slot at one end of the light lens. Carefully pry the lens out." I would use a rag of some kind of padding between the lens and the housing when prying. Good luck!

There is a screwdriver slot on one end. Insert screwdriver in slot and turn screwdriver slightly and the red lens will pop off.

There is a metal tab that clips the adapter to the lens when rotated. It's a bit tricky, but you have to hold the clip up while you rotate the adapter off of the lens. This may be really difficult if it's a snug fit. You may need needle nose pliers to compress the tab far enough.

First, there's a little pin you need to push to release it. Second, Nikon lenses release in the opposite direction from Canon lenses so make sure you are turning it in the correct direction.

The lens is not glass. You should be able to very carefully remove the lenses.

There is a lock somewhere outside the lens near the body. This might prevent you from changing the focal length.

I ran into the same problem. With patience, and by turning it gently and carefully, I finally got it to come off. It helps to screw it on carefully, and evenly, however, it was often difficult to remove. I eventually got a different (slightly more expensive) filter and adapter ring. Good luck with it!

Yes it can be removed. It probably would not be reusable. I've had one on my camera for a couple of years and it works well.

There should be a groove in the lens where it mates to the case near the switch. Stick a coin in the groove and twist, the lens should pop off.

Hi, the knob on the side is a lock pin that you use to release the lens from the adapter (just added safety). When you want to remove the lens hold the lens and adapter vertical and push the knob straight down. Easy as that. Does that help?

You should be able to remove the M-mount lens from the adapter by sliding the button towards the rear of the adapter. In other words, the button slides backwards towards the camera, the button is not pressed down towards the lens. Hope this helps.

Keep in mind that the silver release is NOT a screw, but a button/slide tab. When in place, you'd push it down/away from the lens to release the pin that's holding it on the lens. Now that it's gone, you should still see hole where it was. You are going to need something very small, like a jeweler's screwdriver (smallest size Phillips head) or a sewing needle and you are going to have to have a pretty good light source. You'll need to try to get the tip of the jeweler's screwdriver or tip of the needle into the hole and search for the hole in the pin (it's there somewhere, but it might be up towards the lens). This will be tough, but you'll have to play at it till you can get some leverage on the pin to pull it down and away from the lens so you can release it. Keep in mind that the pin is spring-loaded, so it naturally wants to drive up and into the matching hole on the lens ring. This means IF you can get the pin to slide down, you'll have to hold it down while you are turning the lens against the adapter body to release. Like I said, this will be tricky and require some finesse. If you can't manage it, you will probably have to track down a local shop that repairs lens and camera bodies. They will have the experience and tools to remove it without damaging the lens. FYI: I am also no longer using this POS adapter. As others here have stated, it's poorly-made and has absolutely zero documentation. Sorry for your troubles!

On my lens there is a ridged release button on the lens just next to where the red line-up dot is on the adapter. Push down on the button and turn the adapter. It should come right off.
