I think he might be saying that the lens and adapter are stuck to the camera body itself?
In this case I would not know what to do...except recommend that you not destroy the lens!!

Find a pentax K-mount body you can mount the lens/adapter to. 2. Put lens/adapter onto the camera. 3. Grip camera firmly in hand, lens in other hand. 4. Unscrew lens from adapter, with adapter still on camera. 5. Use fingers/pen/other pointy object to remove the adapter from the camera. -Mat On 10/12/05, dave g <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > It's stuck, not mis-threaded and I'm a bit at a loss.
