How to remove lens off a camera?

How do i remove the lens from my ZENIT E camera?

  • i screwed on a lens to it a while ago, i think its a k mount, and normally there's a lens release switch or something but there's nothing on this one and twisting it either way won't release it. my lens is stuck and i need to use it soon, plz help!

  • Answer:

    Zenit E uses M42 thread. That's just a matter of unscrewing, there is no lens release button. One of those silicon pads that's used to open stubborn jars can help.

Standard european thread = counterclockwise loosens it.

I have a Zenit B that releases the lens the same way. Simply unscrew counter clockwise.
