Off the camera, the lens facing u.
the ring is actually the extended part when u close the lens.
Hold it, and then open it Anti-Clockwise.
Turn it slightly harder, first time is usually "tighter" one.  brows.gif
and dun scare, the camera build is quite solid. smile.gif

try so hard but still can't unscrew it...screwed up myself...lol...
gotta find someone to help..

i got my lenspen for RM25..
and regarding the lens ring problem i think the service centre can't unscrew it..received call from panasonic today, asked me to go to the shop and replace another LX3 for me,brand new set..
now very satisfying with it already, can play with wide angle lens and tele lens already..
feel quite lucky coz get a replacement camera..wonder if i'm not buying at panasonic authorised shop don't know normal shop will replace a new camera for me or not...lol..

means can use DSLR lens?

lol...how come lx3 can fit dslr lens...conversion lens only..

a noob question here..i realize something weird on lx3 compared to other camera..
normally the camera lens barrel will extend when zooming towards tele and shrink when zooming towards wide..
but lx3 does this in opposite direction..anyone can explain this?? blink.gif

hehe im just saying the longer the lens doesnt mean the further the focal range. any camera lens got multiple lens elements inside. if u really want to know, any physics book got teach

lol...i have thrown all my physic books to recycle bin already..
anyway, i will find it out myself.. smile.gif

haha.. nvr mind.. not a big deal, just a curious cat.. i love to see those sifus that take night highway pictures, the trailing light.. how to do it? i know its involve shutter mode, but dunno how to do it..

get a monopod/tripod or put lx3 on a flat surface...
exposure mode switch to 5-8sec
aperture f5.6-8.0..
personally, i haven't try it before... tongue.gif
