Yes, I just got the fortitude to turn the lens with more force and got the adapter off the camera. I then poked a screwdriver into the adapter tab to get the adapter off the lens.

The adapter release hangs up as well as the camera release. I guess i'll have to try real thin feeler gauges to hopefully depress whatever is hanging up. But the gap is very thin even when the lens is partially unscrewed.
Maybe its an adapter flaw.

Thanks.

Anyone else free up a lens like this?

Not thinking, I put a Takumar 135mm f2.5 bayonet MF lens with PK-4/3 adapter on an Olympus E-520.

Aperture tang keeping it locked on camera, correct? Or other interference. It does rotate about 30 degrees on the body side of the adapter and then a few more degrees on the lens side.before hanging up when I try to remove it

Anyone get your's free in this situation, without damaging anything?

I'll leave it on permanently if needed because it works great, but I also would like to use other lenses on the E-520 of course.

You got me from panic to contentment! I just got a used K50 and thought I got screwed with it. All's well now thanks to you.

By the way, using Alkaline AA batteries fixed the problem and I can use all modes.
