I noticed a little piece of fiber stuck on the inside part of the outer lense (the lense on the focusing ring).

Is there a easy way to remove the lense so I can remove that fiber?

Thanks!

Er...is that even a lense? Is that the built in skylight filter? Whatever that outer piece of glass is, that's what I want get at...

Unless it's causing a problem in your photos I think I'd leave it; getting your focus set back correctly after reassembly might be tough. I don't have a GT-E but my Minox 35EL has no B setting to hold the lens open for groundglass focusing.
