I purchased this but I can't see what is going to hold the lense in place. It's going to fall off.

The plastic facing is flexible and fits in easily and holds well. This was very easy to set up.

I believe there is a small screw on the bottom of the black frame that screws into the lens.

I installed mine over a year ago but I believe there is either a screw on the bottom or one on either side. Whichever it is, mine hasn't come off yet.

There were two very small screws in the packaging material that go on the sides

It has two tiny little screws. There are tiny predrilled starter holes on each end.

There were two small holes, one of each side of the black frame, approximately 1/3 from the top. Went to hardware store and purchase two very small nails and just inserted them in and hung the light. Stayed in and have been there ever since I hung the light. Good luck!

The lens adaptor ring does not have any other elements within its geometry. You must screw a filter into the holder.

There are four 'knobs' around the outside of the lens; three of the fourth pivot and the four remains fixed allowing the lens to come off. HOWEVER, while the fourth is fixed and doesn't pivot, the lens is not held in place and will fall if you aren't careful. I do love this fixtures and highly recommend them!

There is a thin circle, notice in the 3rd row, 1st photo. It is an adapter. You screw it to our camera and then the lenses will go on.

Yes sir. Yet it's not design for that. If you have the lens tilted it's really hard to balance it.1 more thing... This is one awesome item.

I haven't had anything like that happen to mine. I was just looking at the lens and honestly I can't see what might fall off in the way of a thin, plastic circle or ring. If the camera is still operating properly then I'd say keep taking pictures. With hope the now-missing circle/ring hasn't left an opening where dust and dirt can get into the lens or the camera itself. Keep us posted.

Yes - you must buy a new lens cover. I bought one that also included an elastic strap that slide over the lens and with a cord and double-sided tape connector for the lens cap so that you can take it off and let it hang and not lose it. Sorry I don't remember where I got it.

I used some of the packing material from the package itself...some foam padding to prop up the camera so the lens is centered in the bag. I think I also wrapped some thin foam AROUND the lens and used a rubber band to hold it in place (I havent used it in a year or so at this point)

Be sure you have taken all of the lens covers off. There is a big cover over the end.

I bought a tulip lens hood for mine and it doesn't fit correctly. It screws on, but not matter how I try to put it on, it doesn't line up with the lens unless I leave it loose. So it's going back and I'll be buying the rubber collapsible one! Panasonic, you need to make a lens hood for this camera!

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!

No, not as it comes. You probably could rig up something if you have a case for the lens

Their is a thread mount ring that fits onto the thread of the lens and the hood twists onto the mount ring. The mount ring stay's in place, while you twist the hood off flip it over and twist it back onto the mount ring. Just reverse the process to flip it back. Hope this been some help.

There is a small lever that releases the pin that holds the adapter to the lens. Its not the strongest so handle with care.

The filter holder goes on the end of the lens. Get the correct size lens adapter and enjoy.

It did not work for me unfortunately, there is not enough adhesive to hold the the ARMOR to the lens. my camera did not have the filter adapter, so I do not know if it fits over the adapter or not,sorry.
