Hi, I've just got my Contina III with Pantar 1:2.8 and Pront SVS. Everything works fine, except distance setting is very stiff, not stuck but hard to move. Any comments or suggestions? Thanks, WS

The lens is removable. I have an extra one, but the lens has cleaning marks. Push down on the lever with the orange dot, and rotate the lens counter clockwise. It will release from the shutter. After that, I don't know.
