How to unload lens from the adapter? The little button on the adapter can not be push down.

It cannot be pushed down. The button slides away from the lens to disengage.

My model is slightly different but there should be a round button on the side that secures the lens in place. You slide this away from the lens and twist the lens to the left to disengage the bayonet.

The black section on the top does unscrew. However, then the lens will fall out.

Try going to the set up menu, go down several items till you get to "Release w/o lens," and enable this. This allows the shutter to work without a lens (which is what the camera thinks when there is an adapter in place).

I have never had that problem. My lens adaptor screws on and off as easily as any of the filters I use. The only guess I can make is that the threads with your adapter were defective in manufacture.

Hello hello Rmauma...! The Little push-button on the side... is working... like the release-button... on your camera... Push it In... and turn the lens... same way... as your normal lenses. If the button... or the adapter is stuck... Perhaps try... to twist the adapter... just a fraction... in both directions... while pressing... on the button. This can give the Little locking pin... enough room... to Work. Now take the lens... with the adapter... one hand on each... close your eyes... and let your hands Work... Hope this will help... Greetings... Jakob.

It is so heavy that you must have a very sturdy tripod. I have had on going trouble with the adapter. So much so that I have not used the lens for over 2 months.

the button slides back, toward the camera, not up or down. Slide it back, it will unlatch then you simply turn the opposite way you turned to get it on.

There is a spring-loaded button on the adapter which permits you to remove it from the lens.

I believe there are 2 screws on each sides. Once you get those off, the lens should come off.

I haven't removed the adapter. I've kept it in place underwater without the lense without any problem at all.

Go to the Fotodiox website for this adapter. They have instructions for removing the lens for macro use.

Detach the floating part from the lower part (squeeze and slide out). My camera has a a little notch to thread a strap through, then you pull it back in on itself. Just like any other camera strap.

How do you pull them out? It seems like you would need super small tweezers or something but how do you do it without damaging the lens itself?

One of mine became stuck on the lens and I worked it loose using slow but firm pressure. With the lens still attached to the adapter, you might have a little more leverage. A camera repair person might anchor the camera in a vice and dislodge the adapter with a screw driver and hammer...but VERY, VERY carefully. It's not something I would try unless you are really comfortable around tools. Wish I could be of more help.

There should be a switch on the cord with an on/off button. Or try turning the lens.

I have the type 2 adapter, which has a ring of metal at the bottom of the threads to push in the aperture pin. If you have a pin, you'll need the type 2; otherwise, your lens will be stuck wide open (maximum aperture, lowest f/number).
