Anyone ever removed the lens from it's barrel and screwed another (M12) lens back into the X???
yeah i have tried 6-8 and 12 mm lenses in my X cam, but other wide angle lenses should also work as the case and lens ring are already made for those larger diameter lenses.
Off course you can not fit one of those insane fisheye lenses as they are even larger i diameter i believe.
As most cameras the lens in the X camera are just fixed with a little glue, so a firm grip and twist should make it come loose.
Thanks, I tried carefully earlier today, but it didn't come loose. I'm a bit reluctant to do it cause my X still works OK and I don't want to ruin it....
You can try applying some gentle heat with a hair dryer or heat gun. Just be careful not to cook anything.
I use one just like this.
yes.
Its not so much about applying more force, its more getting a little better grip on the lens, holding the camera or mount assembly while unscrewing have never been a problem for me ( use hands in that end )
Do you mean yours didn't need refocusing ? Mine was focused to about 12 inches when I got it. Took about an hour to take all the glue off.Anyone ever removed the lens from it's barrel and screwed another (M12) lens back into the X???

I have just uploaded a little video about when to abort in traffic, and as all sane people know not to take chances in traffic.
It have a little footage from the X cam with the 12 mm lens.
Yeah, it's about getting a good grip but also about being able to apply force without damaging anything.
