UPDATE: folks either I’m an idiot or posting this caused the gods of irony to come to my aid because with a few more careful tries I was able to screw off the guard.
Hey folks, I recently bought this Pentax Q10 camera off of eBay, and so far I’ve had a lot of fun with it.
It came with this lens guard attached, which is a nice addition. However, I can’t seem to get it off. I can’t turn it, I can’t pry it up. It seems thoroughly stuck. Obviously I haven’t tried super hard, because I don’t want to break anything.
Am I missing anything obvious or should I accept that this is just how the lens is? It doesn’t seem to really get in the way or anything.
That’s alright, if it’s new to you, you simply didn’t want to damage it. If they sit around for a while, they magically tend to accumulate the tiniest amount of gunk, which makes them hard to unscrew - or maybe someone put tue gronk on it, which, was already mentioned, you really shouldn’t do.
