There should be a small tab that needs to be pressed before the adapter will turn to come off. Always, ALWAYS, put the adapter on the camera first and then screw the lens on. And take the lens off first and the adapter off last. Oh, and gfen was right. The Pentax branded adapters work much, much better than off brand ones. Christian
