Letus Extreme: Push the Release Button BACK



Here is another quirky problem I have come across a couple times, regarding the Letus Extreme depth of field adapter.

Example, FORUM THREAD.

It's not really a design flaw, as the unit works perfectly well. It is simply a button on the Letus that works slightly counter-intuitively. If you have got your 35mm lens in the Letus and want to change to another lens, don't press the release button (the silver button on the bottom) INTO the adapter, which would essentially be pushing the button UP.

In this case, you have to push the button BACK toward the camera in order to remove your lens.

Best to learn this one now before somebody gets frustrated and breaks their unit with their "stuck" lens still caught in the Letus.
